Hi, it's me again. The grouch of LaTeX propriety.
Remember what I said? Something along the lines of "you don't want to
put anything in the LaTeX file which gives visual information?" Well
doublespace.sty is a horrible violation of this rule, and what's more,
the results it gives are *shitty*. Try putting a quotation into single
spacing sometime using it. Hmm isn't the space on one side of the quotation
a bit off?
Things like this are properly part of the document style and, let me add,
are not a too trivial addition. I am developing a sample style, paper.sty
which will meet the requirements for the formatting of a typical
undergraduate paper which I promise I will post as an example of how to
do this to this list.
-dh
P.S. Anyone caught putting \begin{single}..\end{single} into a document
directly will be ferruled three times for each occurrence of that
environment.

I want to format double space in my latex file. I have a copy of 'doublespace.sty', but I am too stupid that I don't know how to use it. For example, I don't know how what commands should be inserted inside the text in order to format doublespace, I don't know how to switch back to single space. Could someone helps! Thanks a lot, thanks a thousand, million... -- Cheers, 9041477@mcmaster.bitnet Eric Ho ce3wa3bh@maccs.dcss.mcmaster.ca McMaster University, Ontario, Canada ...uunet!utai!utgpu!maccs!ce3wa3bh
