(You probably want to remove this last line ^ )


+1 for the python part, I would have named the "context" URL argument "comparisoncontext" for consistency, but I will let Matt decide on that.


I see an horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of:

  http://mezard.eu/hg/hg-does-it-look-good-for-you/?style=monoblue

I have it in Firefox 14.0 (beta) on OSX. It does not appear with the original monoblue template. Is it just me?
