Roman, you're a very sharp guy, always catch all the bugs. Thanks! I am now fixing that mistake.

Anno, thank you for your review. I will not go at this pace, and your mentioned space normalization and tab expansion will be covered in "text conversion and substitution" article.

Kroak, nope, English is not my mother tongue. I am just very passionate about English.

Jake, ehehehe. Your one-liner prints newline before the line. I'll include it in my list! :)
