That's easy, too. Autowrap automatically inserts a line break when your typing reaches the end of a line. This means that you don't need to press Return until you need a new paragraph. However, autowrap leaves the right-hand edge of the text ragged (or ranged left) by default. The previous paragraph in this message is formatted that way. Justify on Autowrap fully justifies the text so that the right-hand edge of each line aligns on the right margin. This paragraph is justified. In a word-processor, the software normally adjusts the inter-character spacing to get the required alignment. This is known as kerning adjustment. However, in plain text, you can't do that. So, TB adjusts the number of spaces between words to get the right-hand edges of the text to align. The result can sometimes be the double-spacing you noticed. To see the difference, type a fairly long paragraph, then format it alternately with Alt+L then Alt+J.
