Doesn't TeX do something more involved with end-of-sentence spacing? How much bloat would it add to Tidy to make it smarter about punctuation at the end of sentences, like TeX? For the record, I used to be a "two spaces or die" biggot, but I got over it. Still, it would be nice if Tidy allowed as much stylistic choice as possible in the internal layout... -- +------------------------------------------------------------+ / Todd_Lewis@unc.edu http://www.unc.edu/~utoddl / /(919) 962-5273 Lord, give me patience...
