Hi Marc,

No, this behaviour was changed upon = request. In=20 TeeGofer v2 you will have to expressly leave white spaces in the = position you=20 want them to appear; for example, the summary tag below appears = correctly in=20 TeeGofer v2 because there is a space character at the end of each line = (except=20 the last one):
 
/// <summary>
/// Maintains = a dynamic=20 collection of helper objects, used to construct objects in the system. = The=20 collection of
/// helpers is intended to be displayed from a list in = a=20 user-interface component, so that a user can
/// directly execute = them. Each=20 helper provides a name, descriptive text and an array of descriptions =
/// of=20 parameters that are required by the helper. The user-interface component = will=20 typically display
/// the names of available helpers, optionally = display the=20 descriptive text, and use the list of parameter
/// descriptions to=20 adequately execute the helper.
/// </summary>
 
You should be able to see this = multi-line=20 summary tag working by simply cutting and pasting it into your=20 code.

It looks like Tee Gopher is not = concatenating a=20 space onto the end of a multi-line summary tag.  Thus, when the=20 multi-line comment is converted to a help file words at the end of the = previous line run together with words from the beginning of the = next. =20 Tee Gopher 1 didn't have this problem.
 
This is a bit of an = issue actually -- I've=20 got lots of multi-line comments in my source.
 
Here's an example from = 2.0:
---
Maintains a dynamic collection of = helper objects,=20 used to construct objects in the system. The collection=20 ofhelpers is intended to be displayed from a list in = a=20 user-interface component, so that a user candirectly = execute=20 them. Each helper provides a name, descriptive text and an array of=20 descriptionsof parameters that are required by the = helper.=20 The user-interface component will typically = displaythe names=20 of available helpers, optionally display the descriptive text, and use = the=20 list of parameterdescriptions to adequately execute = the=20 helper.

Here's the same example in = 1.0:
---
Maintains a dynamic collection of = helper objects,=20 used to construct objects in the system. The collection of helpers is = intended=20 to be displayed from a list in a user-interface component, so that a = user can=20 directly execute them. Each helper provides a name, descriptive text = and an=20 array of descriptions of parameters that are required by the helper. = The=20 user-interface component will typically display the names of available = helpers, optionally display the descriptive text, and use the list of=20 parameter descriptions to adequately execute the helper.
