D forums now live!

[bearophile]

Now I like the forums. I am posting this message with the new 
interface.

I have three more suggestions:

1) When I read posts in the basic View mode, I often want to see 
the last posts of the thread. So I suggest to add the "Last >>" 
link at the top of the page too.

So maybe replacing this line:
View mode: basic / threaded / horizontal-split · Log in · Help

With:
View mode: basic / threaded / horizontal-split · Log in · Help 
· Last>>

-----------------------

2) I sometimes copy & paste messages from the site to text 
documents for various purposes, to send them in emails, etc.

With the older system the copy was something like:

Strangely, I've never had a problem with gdb and D,

With the new system the copy is:

So is it possible to improve this in some way, to give a better 
copy of the important information about the post?

3) This is less important, but it's a simple thing. Regarding the 
page number links at the bottom of the page:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 …
- - - - -   - - -

Or:

… 7 8 9 10 11
   - -   -- --

There is plenty of space there, so I suggest something like this, 
that shows the last page number too:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 … 11
- - - - -   - - -   --

That becomes like this when you are in the middle of a sequence 
of many pages (and here I have added one more space between page 
numbers, to click better on them):

1  …  12  13  14  15  16  17  18  …  22
-     --  --  --      --  --  --     --

Bye and thank you,
