The article just argues by referring to convention, which is rather unfulfilling. It succeeds in pointing out that the two space convention made sense with monospaced fonts.
For many of us monospaced fonts are not a thing of the past...
- dkersten 14y agoFor many of us monospaced fonts are not a thing of the past... Indeed. I use monospaced fonts all the time. Mostly for programming, but also if I am writing a plain text file, I like my editor to use monospaced fonts. Yet I have never had a problem with the words seeming too "loose" or had any difficulty determining the end of sentences or words. I also never learned to use two spaces. Maybe its because I'm in Europe, but afaik everyone I know here uses one space and would never even consider that two spaces could be correct.
