Lots of people seem to have acquired the general habit of taking screenshots 
("prints") of text instead of just sending plain text when they want to 
illustrate some problem at the command line. I don't know why.

In this case you created a bitmap of some text and then used optical character 
recognition to turn that bitmap back into text, a process that almost 
guarantees some number of errors in a situation where accuracy is important and 
is definitely a lot more work.

Surely you realise all of this and your comment was intended to be 
self-deprecating and ironic (in which case well done, I like it) but in case 
anybody else didn't read it that way:

Please cut and paste text when you want to send text! 

It's more accurate, more accessible, easier to search, consumes less storage 
and bandwidth and your volunteer  audience who you hope will do you the 
generous favour of reading it will appreciate all of these things.
