Is there a formatting directive to left-justify text? All I can find in the manual (and archive search) is .ce to center and .fo off to turn formatting off entirely. .fo on yields fully-justified text. .fo on often makes ugly messages, particularly in monospaced fonts, as it inserts extra spaces between words to fully-justify the message. What I'd like is a .le to let listserv assemble the lines into 76-column pieces and write them out without adding any inter-word/sentence spacing. Thanks, and apolgies in advance if this is something simple that I'm too slow to find. Shap Wolf Arizona State University AAPORNET listowner
