Floating point numbers are normally printed in a compact notation (either 
fixed point or in scientific notation if 
<A HREF=r37_0219.html>SCIENTIFIC_NOTATION</A> 
has been used). In some (but not all) cases, it helps comprehensibility 
if spaces are inserted in the number at regular intervals. The switch 
<em>bfspace</em>, if on, will cause a blank to be inserted in the number after 
every five characters.
