There are several places where something like '(? ?...) or '(?\ ?...) is used, i.e. where no additional space separates the "? " character from the "?" of the next character. So we would at least need to make an exception that no additional space is needed after a (real) space. -- Kim F. Storm http://www.cua.dk
