Stylistically, the best english output here is to use the contraction. In english, contractions should be used except where there is specific reason not to. ie, "it's" is to be preferred over "it is", since the latter is read as emphasising "is". This unusual emphasis breaks the flow of reading as it prompts the reader to look for the reason for the emphasis; which is good if there is a reason, but poor if there isn't. _______________________________________________ Bug-gnustep mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnustep
