(Yes, I meant fourth)
And you'll also notice that even when there are 3 or more spaces, one space
is lost. This line:
>> now there are three
originally had three spaces before the "n", but when included in a quoted
line, it ends up with only two, and one of those is really the <space> that
Entourage adds after the quote mark. It *should* end up with a total of four
spaces to preserve the original formatting.
