    Anyone know how to paste code into Gmail without getting a blank line between each line of code?

        @fulligin This seems to be a recent change. He'd never have perpetrated such a feature.

        @paulg i imagine PB as some sort of prognostician - having imagined all possible futures of gmail, he no longer felt the need to work on it

        @paulg Post the code, and then click the “Remove Formatting” button. It’s what I do, and it typically works.

        @benparr That does not get rid of the blank lines for me.

        @paulg try: command+shift+v - it will paste it without formatting (in Windows probably: ctrl+shift+v)

        @paulg command + shift + V normally works for me. From the menu it's "paste without formatting."

        @paulg Not really, but if you select it & hit the formatting (Tx) button at bottom right that should do it..but removes all formatting.

        @paulg It depends on the IDE you are using. Prob. pasting code on a notepad will fix the issue
