What I just sent out, that showed what I wanted to show, was not plain text, but Google's fixed-width font. Of course, turning that on took away plain text mode. I had a couple of years ago or so (Whenever it was that I started working with Python and interacting with the Tutor list.) installed the Stylish extension to Gmail and set up a plain text, fixed width font. Somehow that font has been removed from my Gmail settings with no known action on my part. I did not notice it until today when I tried to reproduce the ASCII art under discussion in this thread and found that I could not. So apparently I can do plain text, but not fixed width, or I can do fixed width, but not plain text! At least until I come up with a solution.
