Here's what those look like in a hex viewer:
Thanks for the report. I ran into a previous issue where SPSS was saving every space as a non-breaking space. I guess it must use other space variants sometimes too. Weird. This seems to be specific to the particular SPV file, because after converting a couple of SPV files to text I don't see that behavior. Oddly, I don't seem to have the particular SPV file in question. If you send it to me, I'll fix the problem. _______________________________________________ Pspp-users mailing list Pspp-users@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-users
