Hi Murray-- I remember reading about this in the FDP Primer when I started learning about the FDP. .....where is this thing.....OK, see the "SGML Primer" chapter, the section on "Comments". There's an admonition to "Use 2 dashes", which explains that something is turning two consecutive hyphens into an em-dash. <speculation>I wonder if there's some stylesheet parameter that can turn this behavior off?</speculation> Cheers, Bruce. --==_Exmh_1959145531P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.3.1+ 05/14/2001 iD8DBQE7WEi82MoxcVugUsMRAm4qAKCXE1+KLUzETOAMlK0C2guOjGF22ACgqIrS JcCknuA89WEXeIGg1/xazdw= =eqZR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1959145531P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
