FYI, the current paragraph font size on docs.python.org is 16px, while for http://www.python.org/~gbrandl/build/html/ it's 13px, so increasing that should help readability :) You can use @media queries to adjust it to screen resolution, which should solve the problem with long lines. -- Łukasz Rekucki _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
