If so, it seems like the current code is wrong for all languages -- what about my previous suggestion that the right thing to do if you need to preserve spaces is to have auto-fill actually go back and break at the _previous_ legal fill boundary? Then the unbreakable text at the end of the line and the space after it would go down to the beginning of the next line. There could even be a variable like [auto-?]fill-preserve-spaces or something like that that you could set in any language that would cause that behavior. If it wasn't set, the old correct (Western language) behavior of changing the space to a newline would apply. People working in Japanese would just need to be sure to set that variable (if there weren't some automatic way of turning it on while working in Japanese buffers). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dan Harkless | To prevent SPAM contamination, please dan-xemacs(a)dilvish.speed.net | do not post this private email address SpeedGate Communications, Inc. | to the USENET or WWW.
