But as you can imagine, I dont only work with Org Mode files. I also work w= ith Python files, Go, Dart and a number of other types. And none of these other types get the wrapping on GitHub. So in order to have the best result acros= s all my files, I prefer to do hard wrapping. That is easy enough to handle in al= l cases except the one ive presented in the original post. The one that youve yet to address directly. Now again I dont wish to discus= s or get into further the merits of hard wrapping vers soft. So perhaps you can = take that discussion elsewhere and keep this on topic. Next we know you will say why someone is using spaces over tabs, or emac ov= er vim, or red over blue bikeshed. Stop.
