So I changed the FAQ on my site (if anyone cares) to : (in Section 3) :If they aren't, find the option in your news reader which lets :you specify which font to use. If you just have a choice between :proportional and fixed width, choose fixed width. If you have a :choice :of which font to use, try different ones until you find :a fixed-width one (using the `i's and `m's above as a guide). :Popular fixed width fonts include Courier, Monaco, and Fixedsys; :anything with `fixed' or `terminal' in its name will also probably :be fixed-width. (I just deleted the 'tt' bit. That easy...) :) Andreas .-------. ( Read \ .
