The space bar, because not everyone's tab is set to the same number of spaces. So, if your tab is set to eight spaces and I try to view it, but my tab is set to four spaces, the file comes out looking almost as corrupted as that created with a proportional font. (The difference is that I can fix yours, I can''t fix what is created using proportional fonts.) > In Colin Douthwaite's "Warning Control Codes." he says that it should be formatted with UUENCODE. Why is that? What happens if MIME encoded art is posted? At one point in time, uuencode/uudecode was more of a standard and far more wide spread. MIME is becoming more and more available, but I think you still might find a lot of people don't have anyway to read a MIME encoded message. Good luck. Hope this helps. Sandy
