    Thanks for this fix.

    Combining the last word with the next line is a much bigger task that >>>>> I'm

    There is another issue that would probably be easier to solve.
    Blank lines of the quoted posting are not marked as quoted in the reply. >>>> It would look better if all lines of the quoted posting start with ">". >>>
    How does this look? I did some testing and the depth (number of '>>') in >>> quoted blank lines is maintained:

    Have you entered manually a blank line after "Line 8" and "test"? If
    not, there is one quoted blank line too much at the end of each quoting.

    Thank you. I'll continue to work on this. I have removed the last blank
    line being quoted, but still seeing it on some articles. Also with or
    without sig makes a difference.

    I will continue on this, thank you for the feedback!

    I think I have it now! I will apply to www.novabbs.org (not .com yet)
    for further testing.
