Summary

I wrote this extension after getting annoyed by a mailing list that displayed entire paragraphs on a single unreadable line. It injects a bit of CSS to enable line wrapping in

 tags:

pre { white-space: pre-wrap; }

This takes effect immediately on all active pages.

I've published the (very short) source code under the Apache 2.0 license.

Does not work at all. Absolutely useless.

Thank you! I had this with a Firefox extension and really missed it. Is there a way to toggle it on or off for the current page (right-click or tool bar) without enable/disabling the extension as a whole?
