Re: Anyone experiencing Lag while make a post?
J, Instead of "you", read that as "one". I understood that. I was assisting in that effort by listing places where one can enter text without using the new (TinyMCE) editor. In Plain Text mode the New

Re: Anyone experiencing Lag while make a post?
That was not my point. This issue doesn't apply to me. I was surmising here that the lag problem reported by other people here may be caused by the new editor, and was guessing that could be tested if

Re: Anyone experiencing Lag while make a post?
My bet is still on the new editor. Shal, is there anything in groups.io that takes input from the user but doesn't use the editor? Something simple like typing a string into the search box? Scott,

Re: Anyone experiencing Lag while make a post?
I'm seeing it on my Group's page whenever I'm starting or replying to a post. There isn't a problem with lag in any other way on my computer on any other site. As a matter of fact, as I got to the

Re: I'm liking the new editor, not so much
Shal, I am well aware of that fact. My point here - which started out as an aside, and which I never intended to get into until you first asked me for specifics (and then denied their existence) is

J, Nope. There's at least the line break question, which I haven't reproduced yet. "The only bug" in useful software is as unlikely as "the only ant" in your kitchen. Shal Silly Simile Society

Re: I'm liking the new editor, not so much
J, Yes, it creates the HTML code for a blockquote. That was never in question. Absolutely. But until your last message I hadn't figured out how to reproduce it. That's why I was describing the

Re: I'm liking the new editor, not so much
Its icon is a quotation mark. It's not "indent text." It is specifically INTENDED to create quotations! It may or may not fail to work as expected on text quoted *from elsewhere*, for various reasons

Re: I'm liking the new editor, not so much
You should be more specific when you refer to word processors. In WordPerfect, Enter gives a simple line break. That people use Word as a standard is just a sad situation caused years ago by deception
