In a re-posting of my original message [some www-math subscription problems and an overly long delay in distribution led me to believe that my message was not received], I also noticed the behavior of #160. I'm somewhat concerned about the nonbreaking nature of #160, which might lead to some occasional unsightly situations where the inline math and the following word are rather long. But this is better than losing the space after inline math in all cases. AS you say, "not ideal but it works." Thanks for the link to the bug page. Mike
