That would have to be two spaces, not one. If I understood it correctly
the last time this was up OE only distorts when there is _exactly one_
space at the beginning of the line. If there are zero or two or more
spaces at the beginning of the line then there will be no distortion.

Actually, that should be "one space character goes after the two
hyphens" (apparently there are programs that pick out one line
containing only "hypen, hyphen, _space_" (i.e. "-- ", not "--") and use
a different style, e.g. different colour or different font, on the rest
of the post. I know this because somebody told me about it who had his
news program set up to show sigs in blue Courier and the rest of the
posts in black Times...).
