081001 - Follow up ref SDS 8 0000, ref SDS 6 0000.
081002 -
081003 - To support changing from email to Knowledge Space (KS), changed
081004 - correspondence format to accomplish structure using tables for
081005 - consistent positioning.
081006 -
081007 - Developed memorandum format, including optional military memos, with
081008 - From, To, and Copy to fields. ref SDS 0 7772

081010 - This should speed up document creation and conversion to HTML for

081440 -
081441 -    2.  Test case 2, correspondence received, ref DRP 4, has a problem
081442 -        the date and address are centered.
081443 -
081444 -        This was because the code that enters para was starting at mark
081445 -        10.  I changed this. ref SDS 0 1776
081446 -
081447 -        Also had to add code to leave a blank line between bottom of
081448 -        letterhead and date line, so the BR op leaves a line for the p
081449 -        op to enter a para, which turns off the center alingment code.

120635 - Tried to verify it is a date by checking the char in front of

120637 - because some programs separate the day of the week with a comma.  We
120638 - could hop over to col 1 and check for "Date" which all email programs

130416 -     begin several spaces to the right, with content left justified.
130417 -     ..
130418 -     Initially I tried making the table width 95%, and made 2
130419 -     cells 14% and 86%.  This did not accomplish the goal, because when
130420 -     a window was shortened, the 2nd cell closed to the width of cell
130421 -     content, which eliminated any spaces that separate the cells.  It
130422 -     does not look professional.
130423 -
130424 -     I tried to make the first cell a fixed width, rather than a
130425 -     percentage, and I elimiated the width command on the 2nd cell.
130426 -     This resulted in the contents of the 2nd cell appearing centered
130427 -     in the screen, which is totally incorrect.
130428 -
130429 -     I eliminated the table width.
130430 -
130431 -     I added space commands at the end of cell 1 content, so it is
130432 -     padded.
130433 -     ..
130434 -     I eliminated width commands in both cells.
130435 -
130436 -     This seems to accomplish the desirec effect, but it is not a good
130437 -     solution.  We need to be able to specify a fixed width for the
130438 -     left cell and have the right cell adjust.
