Subject:One or two spaces after a full stop? From:Michael Little <ur004135 -at- MAIL01 -dot- MEL -dot- AONE -dot- NET -dot- AU> Date:Thu, 7 Aug 1997 09:01:08 +0000
Hello,
The question: " One or two spaces after a full stop?", has created
some quited heated debates. What I would like to know:
1. What is the reason for putting tow spaces after a full stop?
2. Can any one point me to a style guide, such as the AGPS Style
Manual that states what the is the most appropiate?
Regards,
Mike Little
