Like you and Jochen I use notepad. And like you I cut and paste. My rule of thumb is to maximize the notepad screen and as the code reaches 7/10th the screen I concatenate the code with the next line using "+". This seems to help in readibility when I use the code-slash-code method.

Like you I find when I cut and paste code from the forum topic to notepad there are about 10 spaces added to the left of each line. Don't know why but have learned to live with it.
