I have been working on a problem with a user and located what I believe to
be a major bug in the setspace.sty file we have been distrtibuting. The
commands \doublespacing, \onehalfspacing, and \singlespacing required an
additional font size changing to activate them.  I added what I believe to
be the necessary lines to fix this, as well as a header for archive use. 
Comments on any of the changes are certainly welcomed.

I've always used (for example) \begin{doublespace} ... \end{doublespace}
instead of the global definition \doublespacing and never ran across this
previously.  I did not change these environments -- just the global
definitions noted above. The file, as modified, makes these commands
available immediately without a manual fontsize change and corrects
slightly for changing from multiple spacing back to single spacing (at
least, IMO, it's more graceful).

To retrieve the updated file via e-mail, include:
 SENDME STY.SETSPACE
in the body of a mail message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (FILESERV@SHSU.edu). 
The file is available for anonymous ftp retrieval from Niord.SHSU.edu
(192.92.115.8) in [FILESERV.STY].

Regards,   George
