[bksvol-discuss] Re: Tab Characters in the Table of Contents

Well, don't necessarily leave them in. I was not expressing myself very 
well in that message. Yes, the Bookshare tools do remove the tabs for you, but 
the trouble is that they do not replace them with anything. If there is 
nothing other than the tab between words or a word and a number they should be 
removed and replaced with a space. If there is already a space as well as the 
tab then I suppose you can leave them.

Hi Roger!

Thanks!  I'm such a detail person.  I'll leave the tab characters in then.
