On Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Xenial, recently Firefox started showing plain text files as if they had formatting elements in them.

I would like a pure ASCII text file to be displayed like they might look if I used "less" or "more" on them, i.e. plain text. Instead the presentation is word-wrapped, and the fonts have been swapped from a monospaced font.

In the past a monospaced font was used. I am a developer and need access to raw text files from time to time.

So for example, this gets formatted?

That isn't a native feature. Could it be one of your extensions?

I should mention that the initial display of the text is fine. Then it gets displayed again word wrapped, and then a third time using margins and font replacements. It all takes about 4 seconds, and each redisplay is about one second apart. This is happening on both local files and remote HTTP GETs.

Yes, thanks. It was ASCII Doctor Live Preview. I disabled that add-on and now back to normal.
