Board corrupting posted text Options

[Brian Chandler]

Repeatedly, this software turns something meaningful into nonsense. If I label items (a), (b), (d), (e), without missing out c, this gets turned into junk. Similarly, attempts to indicate spelling variations, as in colo(u)r, get corrupted if the optional letter is an r (as in a well-known misspelling).

Please remove the junk "features" that are doing this. I assume this software is open source, so I'm willing to offer to help look for the junk that needs to be removed.
