Good question. On my phone it was the only thing available on the keypad. I don’t know exactly what it was.

I’m on the tablet now, seems to work the same way.
The Korean shopkeepers knew what they were doing during the Rodney King riots.
I am so confused! LOL!
Add to that FReeping while on a tablet with voice-to-text text makes it even more complicated.
OMG..v2t just made the word FReeping into “free peeing.” Nice invention, but I need to figure out how to add words that are unusual. :-)
Adding a horizontal line is confusing.
And < hr > without the spaces is actually a HTML tag.
H(yper)T(ext)M(arkup)L(anguage) is your friend.
HTML is confusing only if you refuse to take a moment and learn what it is.
The simplest basics of the level used on Free Republic are described here:

Please, please click the above and read at least the first paragraph.
You can make your use of Free Republic much easier by experimenting with and then using the simplest HTML tags.

I know exactly what it is. Theres no need to be condescending about it. Im a software engineer, and HTML is quite simple. Check my posts, I have posted lots of pictures and links, when relevant.
But I see no need to use HTML on every post when all I wanna do is quote someone. I do most of my posting from my phone, and it is more time-consuming to use HTML on a phone or tablet than it is on a real keyboard. Due to my repetitive stress injuries, I dictate and the least actual finger use I have to do the better off I am. On my main computer I have the HTML commands programmed into Dragon. But I am rarely on my main computer.
So you really dont know all the reasons why someone may not be using HTML. You just want to assume that we are lazy or stupid.
Wrong on both counts.
It may be that's what the court is doing.
Sorry for your ego sensitivity. No condescension intended. Others are also reading.
Now that would be quite interesting.
I’ll do some research.
