I tend to worry about things like how paragraphs are separated and which words get emphasized as I go along (the same sorts of things that I'd worry about in a simple forum post), but I'm not going to worry about minute formatting details like mdash or ndash or anything like that. And I won't worry about the font style or page layout or anything along those lines until much later. Without having a bunch of text, I don't know how you'd be able to sort that out very well anyway, since you wouldn't be able to see what your tweaks did. But I _am_ doing enough formatting to care about whether I need $(P ) or not - just not a whole lot beyond that. - Jonathan M Davis
