when I am feeling polite and wish to 'use' a swear word without actually printing it, only two *s come out, when I have, in fact, typed in the appropriate number to show the swear word I wish to use?

Is it better to type 'bloody' in full?

Thank you. smile

It only did one space instead of 6. so what happens when you type something else with six spaces between, like this A B ?

Only one space!

Looks like we have to put a space between each star as Anagram did to get several of them in the middle of a word.

That's morse code in stars.

But that's not how I typed it.

There is something odd going on here.

It needs to be investigated.

I tried to make a pattern with stars some time ago, but it doesn't seem to accept spaces where you want to put them...
