Yeah, 2023 and reflowing documents still isn't a thing. Yay

I read this on mobile and it felt pretty tedious. I wonder if maybe some minimal HTML could make the paragraphs reflow properly while still looking like a manpage everywhere.

Which is ironic, given that man pages do reflow on different-width terminals and have done since the '90s.

What sort of keyhole are you peering through that needs to reflow 72-character text lines?

A phone? Your comment is 3 lines for me.

Just checked; both my comment and TFA appear full width on my phone. Bog-standard Android.

Maybe other people do not use the same setup as you do.

[082349872349872]

That much is obvious given that a vanilla phone setup has no trouble with even 90-character lines. Not my business to stop anyone making things hard on themselves, though, so good luck you all!

(do we have anyone who reads HN over a morse clacker?)

I have vision problems, I increase zoom a lot in desktop and mobile.

What do you have against people different than youself?
