The difference between native English speaker and English writer is that writer usually does not mix up dye and die ;) But afaik there is no such language as Englis, so first we would need to agree on which of the many Englishes the docs will be in. I guess they are currently in "International" English which is quite free about grammar, spelling and punctuation. I would hate if we all started to write in some more rigid dialect. I've heard that some of these even make you put the full stop at the end of a sentence before closing parenthesiss (like this.) They claim it is for "typographical aesthetics" ;) ---------- Hannu
