I'm on a Mac and just used LineBreak in five test posts of ASCII text to a Yahoo board. I have been plagued and pissed for years at seeing the "long line, short line...long line, short line" appearance of text I post to e-boards or Yahoo groups from a Mac. In sequential trials I posted a continuous string of text in Mac and UNIX and DOS text (using LineBreak) and even tried two more posts -- one in UNICODE and one in Windows Latin. I was sure it was the line feed or line break and character return stuff that was the culprit. But no matter what flavor of text I pasted and posted there, I got the same "misbroken" lines in the text. Do you have any idea what causes this? I'll get to a PC tomorrow but I think the material will still appear "broken incorrectly" when viewed from a PC. Feel free to please write me at my email address here. Thanks, Bill Josh,
