Subject:To space before a bracket or not to space? From:"Sameh Saeb" <ssaeb -at- menanet -dot- net> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 13 May 2004 10:21:51 +0300
Hey,
A friend of mine who writes for a teen magazine has run
into a problem concerning whether to leave a space before
and after brackets or not.
The editor requires her to not leave a space before and
after the brackets, basing her (The Editor) conviction to
some mystery style book.
I had always believed otherwise (maybe because of the
looming green underline affectionately provided by MS
Word).
In any case I would like your views on this.
Thanks,
Sameh Saeb
