Bug description: show_source is extremely ugly and inefficient.
The show_source function translates all spaces into "& nbsp ;"'s, which really
disturbs tables and makes pages wider. Complete ugliness, and it also wastes bandwidth by sending
unnecessary information.
I realize that not replacing the spaces will result in wrapping of the source, perhaps using the
<nobr> tag would help?
If not, then perhaps whether or not to translate the spaces should be an argument?
