I took typing for three years while in school. Two years for 'mechanics' and one year for 'speed effiency'. In those years, I was taught that two spaces appeared after a period. With this knowledge, I have typed that way throughout my adult life; however, I have noticed of late, that many in the computer world use only 'one' space after the period. Is this a normal habit in the world of computing? Is it 'one' or 'two' spaces after the period? Can someone tell me that really knows? No opinions mind you, just the facts.
So, why did I ask such a question in this newsgroup? Because I have noticed that when I use two spaces after the period, using Mozilla/Netscape mail/news client, that I often get mis-alignment on the left hand side of my writing. If I use a single space after the period, that never occurs. If I use Outlook Express and use two spaces after a period, and that period ends at the end of the right side, that OE will re-align the left hand side for me. I hope that this makes some sense to someone out there. Can someone clue me in on this behavior using Mozilla mail?
