Yes, that's true for text tables. Till now, they've been specifically designed for one-to-one mapping. >The contraction tables could possibly be used to give us multi-cell, >but I dont want to loose 8 dots. All eight dots can be specified within a contraction table. In fact, the "always" directive of a contraction table is equivalent to the "char" directive of a text table except that multiple cells can be specified. Perhaps, to save on duplication, contraction tables should recognize the "char" directive which would then let them include text tables. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
