newb question

i didn't see this in the FAQ.  i've noticed in a lot of "old skool"
txt files (zines and such), the are "justified" columns with carefully
placed, almost unnoticeable, instances of 2 spaces between words
instead of one, so that both the left and right margins line up.  i
was thinking that this would be useful when combining ascii art with
lengthy paragraphs, should i ever have need to do such a thing... is
this usually done manually, or are there tools out there to assist one
in doing this without making it look like crap?
