How do you get rid of, <'s?

[John Ross]

I guess you could call it plagiarizing, I just looked at it as
passing, funny story on.
I found that they had normally been passed on many times before, with
the resulting multiple symbols, and I just wanted an easy method, of
getting the message back to it's original, format.
Anyway, thank you to all who replied.
Back to pianos.
You know I went back and checked that symbol twice, and still got it
reversed.
I hadn't realized you could catch dyslexia. :-)

| Not an <, John, it's an >. Placed in front of the preceding message,
it
| indicates the alluded to message is "lesser than" the reply. After
two
| un-trimmed levels of > in the replies, the importance of the
message(s)
| alluded to is so minuscule as to not be worth the candlepower it
takes to
| send the bits back across the void yet yet again again.
|
| That's regular correspondence. If you receive something with a bunch
of
| nested <, or >, and want to plagiarize it to pass it on to someone
else as
| your own, just do a search and replace on the offending symbol,
replacing
| it with.
