But we don't work on proportional font systems, we work with git, on command lines, with fixed spacing fonts, all the things that indicate double spaces are actually preferred even by those people that are proponents of single spacing. And on top of that, current research suggests maybe the single spacers are wrong after all :-o https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/05/two-spaces-after-a-p eriod/559304/ Anyway, my original point stands. It's controversial, as you said, so Steve should do what Steve feels is best and not worry about anyone else' opinion on the matter. -- Doug Ledford <dledford@xxxxxxxxxx> GPG KeyID: B826A3330E572FDD Key fingerprint = AE6B 1BDA 122B 23B4 265B 1274 B826 A333 0E57 2FDD
