Thank you for this information; as an American, I was taught to double
space between sentences, but have been dismayed to see that the Brits don't!
I had thought for the Camion Code, to keep it 'footprint' small, to use one
space as a word break, 2 for an end-of-sentence, and 3 consecutive spaces
to indicate end-of-paragraph (and if no further 'characters', end-of-text).
Would need to program the manipulating software to 'recognize' these 3
'conditions', and in the case of 'transcription', convert them
appropriately. >>smart-space algorithms?
