I wonder what word processor you're using, because Word doesn't. As I use Word, if you type two spaces you get more space than if you type one space. That's what I want.

Maybe it has something to do with right-justification, which I don't use. Thirty years ago, when I was editing a right-justified fanzine, it would do that - detect periods and put more space after them, whether you'd typed two spaces or not. Drove me crazy! Huge spaces after, e.g., the "St." in "St. Louis," no extra space at all after sentences that ended with " or !

But that problem disappeared after I stopped doing layout in WordStar, even though I was still right-justifying. Ventura Publisher, which was my next tool, didn't think it knew better than me what was the end of a sentence and what wasn't.
