Perhaps a "Moderation/Edit" ability for high-level monks?

I agree about the nastiness of horizontal scrolling. Many a time have I wanted to just add a few (obvious-but-missing) newlines to a post. Only high-level monks would be allowed to do such a thing (and perhaps there should be a non-suppressible message added when a post is edited).

Kinda scary, but it would greatly improve the aesthetics of the site in certain instances...

P.S. Since merlyn is right (that only perl can correctly parse perl), this will most likely require human intervention.

  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
