Could you please edit out those trailing spaces from your terminal output so as not to mess with the site layout so heavily? The OP shouldn't have to edit his copy/paste to remove whitespace since the OP is using code tags, and it is job of code tags to perform wrapping of too long lines. If you turned this feature off, you can customize your css to wrap the lines for you.

Those lines aren’t code, they shouldn’t actually be in code tags, but in samp (I vaguely remember a monk starting a thread here about that, not sure if it’s allowed now), or as a fallback, in pre. Those trailing spaces are insignificant ones, put into the clipboard by a buggy terminal, so yes, it should be the OP who should fix his paste, because it’s broken.
I have turned off the wrapping indeed, because those +-prefixed lines looked horrible and made things harder to read. 99.99% of code tags fit in my screen, so I don’t need CSS to mangle people’s code for me — in fact, that would make things just as bad as the PerlMonks default code mangling.

Yes they should. PerlMonks FAQ: Markup in the Monastery
so yes, it should be the OP who should fix his paste, because it’s broken. I'm afraid this OP has proven PEBKAC is his religion
so I don’t need CSS to mangle people’s code for me Then you need to stop telling people to edit stuff in-between code tags because it doesn't look right according to your settings/browser
