Thanks Eric. I solved that already. What I haven't solved yet is similar to what the other person was asking...inserting whitespace into a table -- but for man/nroff instead of HTML. What I want to do is force the borders out further. Any idea how to do this in txt2tags man/nroff? The non-blanking space solution may work great for HTML, but no idea how to do the same for man/nroff at the moment. By the way, for the record, I will be submitting patches soon for txt2tags if you guys want to implement them. One patch will address the '\" et issue for Solaris (it won't break any other platforms because it will be seen as a comment on all others). And the other patch will be for .nf/.fi blocks on HP-UX. Apparently HP-UX nroff requires a .PP after .fi or else the entire rest of the document is hosed. This is why my tables were not working there, but it had nothing to do with the tables. It took me a while to find out that everything after the nroff .fi (in t2t, using ```) was broken. My solution was just to change the ".fi" to ".fi\n.PP\n" in the Python code for the man module. Again, it works fine on all other Unix platforms. Do you folks see any problem with me submitting these patches to you for review?
