>> Formatting

> To create the formatting effects you see in Word - bold text, different fonts, spaces, indents - the word processor has coding behind it, hidden to the user.

> The computer reads the commands, such as shifting the markers on the ruler or pressing 'Enter', and codes them in the way set by the user's preferences.

> So for example, if you choose to use double-spaced paragraphs, Word will remember to move two lines every time you press 'Enter'.

> Look at the saved files
> Look at the binary code, in My Computer
> Go back to "Work"
