I was fairly happy with it, but in the middle someone offered v2.6 which had some nice features. Unfortunately, it also had a different right-justifying algo- rithm, much inferior. For example: v2.55 Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah v2.6 Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah What I'm trying to show is padding-with-blanks, starting (for this line) on the right, after first padding at punctuation. v2.55 knows to skip the space after the period, because it already put a blank there. v2.6 doesn't know about that; it pads after the punctuation, then adds another blank when it pads between words. Does anyone know how v2.7 behaves? Or how to get around this ugliness in v2.6? (Or a Hebrew word-processor so I can write in the other direction? :-)
