Hello,

An elipsis is typically written with spaces in the middle of the three dots in 
print when one writes papers.  Microsoft word treats an elipsis as a single 
entity and you may not notice it.  In computer terms, an elipsis is a single 
entity; but the print appearance is still with spaces in between the dots.

Well, I asked because I always thought, though papers aren't written this way 
and often books don't scan this way, there should be the three together with 
a space on either side, so I replaced these that way.
