Hi Ann,
Very clear. So, to enter plain text with only blank lines between paragraphs, 
there is no downside to stick with text edit? Do you happen to know if, just 
like notepad does in windows, text edit prints the filename as header on each 
paper page when you print your document? Wordpad just prints the text in 
windows, but notepad also makes a heading of the filename the document came 
from, which can be undesirable. Does text edit do this, that you know of? Or 
can I safely print out a document I wrote without the filename being made into 
a page header in text edit?
Paul.
