Breaking Lines

I finally fixed a bug in the installation of slashcode that runs greplaw. Lovely folks were breaking the formatting of the comment pages by posting reallylongwordswithnobreaksinthem stretching our hundreds of words. These unbroken words cause IE to widen the page to display the whole word on one line, so the page becomes unreadable without massive amounts of side scrolling. So I added some code just to break any word longer than 50 characters. Unfortunately, doing so was breaking long links, so I had to add an exception for html tags.

Vandals suck.
