stupid question maybe

[Tzimix]

Hello,

Sometimes some people copy scripts on the forum, all in length.

I don't understand how to copy them?
When I copy it's only one line

thank you in advance for my ignorance

[Mollymews]

use mouse to highlight the script text

then right-click menu and Copy

then Paste into viewer LSL editor, or into text editor like Windows Notepad

Hello thx Mollymews

the problem when I do this
he copies the whole script on one line and then doesn't respect lines 1,2,3...

I just realized that maybe it's an error in my firefox display to see the script that you only have one line

[Tzimix]

oh no watch Xiija's answer 2 line
the script is in a single line

here :

yes I see

i think that some (most/all) scripts that were ported over from the previous forum software lost their formatting (linefeed/carriage return/tab ) and ended up with these chars replaced by single space char

only thing we can do, other than go thru manually, is copy paste into a script editor that has a code reformat option

I think the old forum entries only work with the NetScape browser.

i had a quick look at a copy paste into a hex editor. Seems like

tab char (0x09) that may have been in the code block has been replaced by 4 space chars (0x20)

linefeed char (0x0A) or carriage return char (0x0D) that may have been in the code block have been removed
