If       AS>> you will remember the book on witchcraft in Suspiria,       AS>> it has sentence spacing, too.              GH> Which one do you have in mind? I rewatched the original       GH> 1977 movie a couple of months ago, but unsurprisingly, I       GH> took no notice of such detail and could've missed if       GH> there were any brief close-ups of a book. Because I was       GH> so much stunned by its coloring and cinematography. :-)              Yes, I meant the original Suspiria, and wathed it from       Bluray on via my projector. Increased sentence spacing is       used in many good old books, and I think it was especially       prominent before 1940s.              ---         * Origin: nntp://news.fidonet.fi (2:221/6.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 10/0 1 15/0 90/1 102/401 103/1 705 105/81 106/201 123/131       SEEN-BY: 129/305 153/7715 154/10 214/22 218/0 1 215 601 700 720 840       SEEN-BY: 218/850 860 870 880 930 221/1 6 226/30 227/114 229/110 112       SEEN-BY: 229/113 206 307 317 426 428 470 664 700 240/1120 266/512       SEEN-BY: 282/1038 291/111 301/1 113 320/219 322/757 335/364 341/66       SEEN-BY: 341/234 342/200 396/45 460/58 712/848 5020/400 1042 5075/35       PATH: 221/6 301/1 218/700 229/426           |
