That (the "plain" brush) did not help much (just removed all the color).

So it looks like this will not work well for all of the reason's posted above.

Without objections, I have reverted back to the original way of the code tags.

Do you guys want me to turn it back on and try on "plain" as a final test?

I agree that this syntax highlighter is "pretty" but not accurate and so therefore misleading.

It's certainly faster using the original HTML without all the extra JS code to load in the browser.

If it is not adding real value (and not solving the "original sin" scrollbar issue), we don't need the overhead and performance hits.

Should I turn on "plain" and see how it goes without the colors? Or just abandon this idea?

Suggestions welcome!

curl_unescape

curl_unescape(3)						  libcurl Manual						  curl_unescape(3)

NAME

       curl_unescape - URL decodes the given string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       char *curl_unescape( char *url, int length );

DESCRIPTION

       Obsolete function. Use curl_easy_unescape(3) instead!

       This  function  will  convert  the  given URL encoded input string to a "plain string" and return that as a new allocated string. All input
       characters that are URL encoded (%XX where XX is a two-digit hexadecimal number) will be converted to their plain text versions.

       If the 'length' argument is set to 0, curl_unescape() will use strlen() on the input 'url' string to find out the size.

       You must curl_free() the returned string when you're done with it.

AVAILABILITY

       Since 7.15.4, curl_easy_unescape(3) should be used. This function will be removed in a future release.

RETURN VALUE

       A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.

SEE ALSO

       curl_easy_escape(3), curl_easy_unescape(3), curl_free(3), RFC 2396
