Subject: unwanted auto-formatting on matlab central newsreader?

From one of my previous posts I suspect that the matlabcentral newsreader does some unwanted auto-formatting in addition to the known 'hiding empty lines' problem: multiple spaces were contracted to a single one. Such an auto-formatting can be quite annoying if you post code...


Here are some test lines (copied from Notepad):
numel(' ') % 4 spaces
numel(' ') % 3 spaces
numel(' ') % 2 spaces
numel(' ') % 1 space


Please ignore this if the right amount of space characters shows up.

OK, it's a problem of the matlab central newsreader...

I hope this can be fixed - like the issue with the empty lines, which are back now!
