- You can turn off smart spaces when you import the MML into a Frame
- document. Just turn off smart spaces in the document before
- importing the MML. Unfortunately, this turns off smart spaces
- globally for the entire document. If you don't filter out doubled
- spaces after periods, they'll persist in your Frame document.
-
- If you want to preserve spaces in just one part of a document, you'll
- need to replace each space to preserve with the code for a non-breaking
- space character, as with the following substitution command:
-
- s/ /<\\x11>/g
-
- -r
