Is that an americanism? I always found it silly in the age of digital type but there are still people who insist two spaces is correct and you can’t do it any other way.
I had assumed it was some typewriter related thing, that with the fixed width space the typewriter can do it looks better with two spaces or something?
Is this not a thing outside of the US, and everyone has always used one space? How did the two spaces start???
