      Hello Michiel!              01 Oct 14 18:01, you wrote to me:               KE>> Should makenl_ng flag spaces in a node line as errors?               MvdV> Definitely! According to FTS-5000 it IS an error.               MvdV> in all string fields unless specified otherwise. Underscores (5Fh)        MvdV> are always used in place of spaces (20h).               KE>> Should makenl_ng remove these spaces,               MvdV> Or replace them with an underscore?               That would be just as useless for a flag field as the space. The Flag would        now certainly be ignored.               KE>> probably a nono, as makenl should not apply automatic editing of        KE>> nodelist lines..               MvdV> Replacing with an underscore will most likely give the desired result in        MvdV> the name fields. removing spaces will most likely result in line that        MvdV> parses. Or it may produce another error.               MvdV> Perhaps it is better to let a human judge.               probaly.               MvdV> But it definitely should be flagged as an error!               right.              Kees              --- FPD v2.9.040207 GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5        * Origin: As for me, all I know is that, I know nothing.
