That's odd.  I tend to put links outside of the main text, so I didn't
see this.

My pgsgml-processed documents have the columns indented with a single
tab, which tidy-bowl converts to 7 spaces.

I automatically double-space after a period when typing, but I've
noticed that pgsgml would reset my spacing variably.

Those documents were written with emacs 21 (standard FC3 package) and
pgsgml, and the setup may have been mildly broken, so YMMV.  I've been
editing them with FC4 emacs and Tim Waugh's nxml package before passing
them to tidy-bowl.
