Mike, use Proxomitron (or write something like it in Eu), set your browser to
use it (Foxfire: tools/options/network/etc), set Proxo to change <pre> to
<pHALTre> when at url *openeuphoria.org/EUforum* .

If you feel like editing the cfg file directly, the rule is:
Name = "Mike's WordWrap"
Active = TRUE
URL = "*openeuphoria.org/EUforum*"
Bounds = "<*>"
Limit = 5
Match = "*pre*"
Replace = "<pHALTre>"

That will edit the incoming page from *openeuphoria.org/EUforum* to edit the
<pre> so it won't work. The </pre> is irrelavant (altho that's irreverant to html
standards). The limit on zooming vs width is then the url in your message when
you posted, because the wordwrap won't break words, and the url is one long
"word". You can, however, also replace '?' and '&' in urls with a "? " to get
them to wrap, but that will make the url non-clickable.

Caveat: like Rob said, this will likely break things like < e u c o d e > tags,
altho you could use Proxo to reinsert <pre> there if you wish. Or you could
insert <br> at all \n and/or \n when at *openeuphoria.org/EUforum* to preserve
some formatting while still killing the <pre> tags.

And someone mentioned seeing google ads for other languages when viewing the
euphorum, you can either set pagead2.googlesyndication.com to 127.0.0.1 in your
windoze hosts file (i am sure you can do something like that in *nix), or use the
following Proxo rule:

Name = "pagead2.googlesyndication.com"
Active = TRUE
Multi = TRUE
URL = "*"
Bounds = "<*>"
Limit = 2560
Match = "*googlesyndication.com*"
