About

The old-school usenet quote style is still in use at, well, of course the usenet ("Newsgroups") and also in plain text Email. This module bases on a filter routine from an older forum software I once developed.

It adds an input format filter that transforms usenet style quoting into nested HTML quotes.

Example:

>>What Do you think?
>Nothing.
So do I.

will filter to

<blockquote><blockquote>What Do you think?</blockquote>Nothing.</blockquote>
So do I.

Features

  • Recursive quote level detection will nest quotes properly.
  • You can define individual opening and closing markup/tags for each of your input formats, e.g. tokens for further filters or BB code quotes.
