Posts appear to now be interpreted as markdown, so there are lots of instances of broken answers since not everyone properly uses code tags. For example, if I had posted an unformatted props.conf on the old site, it now looks like:
[sample]
INDEXEDEXTRACTIONS = csv
SHOULDLINEMERGE = False
TIMEFORMAT = %Y%m%d
TIMEPREFIX = ^
MAXTIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 8
MAXDAYS_AGO=10000s
