Hmm. Yes I can see that being annoying. Bleh, I'm not sure what to do about this space thing at all now. Perhaps: limit to two spaces maximum, and strip the extra one on output ? > I am not so sure that I agree with this "remove DEPM" mantra. Let's not confuse the paragraph handling with the space thing.

Well, let's be real here, the effects of DEPM have rippled through a significant part of the tree; you have to admit it's not "just one function". Whereas a small tweak in the output routines is a million times more localised. regards, john
