In my previous ply, via LISTSERV HTML interface, Included: <SP><CRLF> <CRLF> LISTSERV preserved both. In Lionel's example, every line was padded with <SP> to 80 characters (nearly -- some appeared a byte shorter.)
"the smarts to strip out extraneous spaces" is wishful thinking. On CMS SMTP or RSCS stripped trailing spaces from a uuencoded attachment. I needed to write a filter to restore them. Utilities, including ISPF Edit, should preserve the users' text; neither adding spaces users didn't type nor removing spaces users type. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
