I don't know if this helps the discussion or not :-) but in the '70's my father brought home an electric typewriter someone was throwing out. They junked it, it turned out, because it was a proportional-spaced typewriter, makeing it quite impossible to backspace and fix anything. And it didn't always work well -- it wasn't an IBM. BUT -- it had a split space-bar. One side would give a single space, the other side two spaces. -Chris ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (914) 967-7816 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/
