NO freaking idea. I asked, and so far, [...crickets...]. Nothing unusual about that, though. I ask things like this, all the time. "When you learned how to use the word-processor, didn't anyone tell you to let the text line-wrap?" (That one is particularly boggling when HALF of it line-wraps, and half of it is used like a typewriter--typety-type-type-type-ENTER, typety-type-type-type-ENTER...lather, rinse,repeat, scream.)
Or the one where they don't use tabs or styles, but hit the spacebar--different amounts of spaces, each time. That's a personal fave. OR, when they have the narrative text indented--but dialog paras, not.
There's no end, there really isn't. Just when you think that you've seen it all--something new happens. Charlie probably remembers that one I posted a few years ago--the one where the pilcrow somehow ended up at the LEFT margin?
Before the text line? I still have no idea how the hell that one happened. That shouldn't exist, by any stretch of the imagination.
{shrug}. It's just another thing that shows up to drive us nuts.
