What were you trying to do?
	Help jh with an obscure problem somehow related to
doublespace.sty, specifically, extraneous spaces being introduced.

What's wrong:
	See above.  Also, TeX should automagically throw away spaces
when it should, but I can think of no simple algorithm for doing to.
:-)

What should have happened:
	It should not have introduced extraneous spaces.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	patch follows (note the '%' characters at the ends of certain
