Hardcoding this is also bad because it leads to uwanted spacing e.g. in lists http://dante.ctan.org/CTAN/info/l2tabu/english/l2tabuen.pdf In case you prefer some additional space between paragraphs to paragraph indent for marking the start of a new paragraph (‘zero paragraph indent’) do *not* use \setlength{\parindent}{0pt} \setlength{\parskip}{\baselineskip} \parskip should not be used as it will also modify settings for list environments, table of contents, etc., and headings. The parskip.sty package, however, as well as the KOMA-Script classes go to some lengths to avoid these side effects: - \parindent = 0mm - \parskip = 2mm + \RequirePackage{parskip} Günter --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group.
