  - Ah, Dave, just the man. Can you settle the ellipses debate? (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 20:24:03
    - easy (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 20:40:50
      - How about at the end of a sentence...? (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 20:49:22
        
        personally i don't think you often need such punctuation in formal writing ... (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 20:55:50
        
        exactly (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 20:53:52
        
        OK, I think we're nearly there ... (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 21:05:25
        
        of course posting on here isn't really covered in style guides... (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 21:06:45
        
        Cop out! (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 21:10:35
        
        And, of course, to be truely creative, it's also useful to know the definitive rules (n/m) (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 21:12:44
        
        not convinced (NCFC) - Muff, Apr 16, 20:56:21
        
        no, never out spaces between dots. (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 20:58:58
        
        Hmmmm (NCFC) - Muff, Apr 16, 21:06:16
        
        yes (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 21:07:27
        
        With a space!! (n/m) (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 21:11:18
        
        I like to mix things up a little. (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 21:14:57
        
        i'll happily concede that i'm wrong on the space before the ellipses (NCFC) - blindasabat, Apr 16, 21:31:00
        
        if you live in the 19th century, yes (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 22:04:01
        
        Ah, but that's absolutely correct (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Apr 16, 21:26:07
        
        No!!!!!!!! (NCFC) - Muff, Apr 16, 21:15:52
        
        but html renders it as a single space. (n/m) (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 21:15:15
        
        *put (n/m) (NCFC) - Dave in France, Apr 16, 20:59:21
