If you are doing this to fill and justify text, I seem to remember a research result stating that filled text (with smooth left and right margins) works well for proportional fonts, but decreases readability for fixed pitch fonts, where ragged right (or ragged left) works better. Sadly, I have no idea where I read that as it is only in the recesses of my somewhat addled brain. --Scott David Daniels scott.dani...@acm.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
