When I use a .DE-.DS sequence, the following text gets
messed up. The text becomes single spaced and footnotes
are printed one word to a line. Here is an example:
Here is an example of what I am talking about, notice what
I said happens after I decide to use a .DS .DE sequnece.
.DS
One phrase
followed by another
and another
.DE
See what I mean. Notice how the lines are no longer doubled
space, instead they are single spaced\*F
.FS
This even happens when I use .DF instead of .DS.
Inserting .ad b doesn't help either.
.FE
The formated text is:

said happens after I decide to use a .DS .DE sequnece.

Any suggestions on what is causing this as well as how
to correct the problem? The version of unix used is
BSD 4.2.
Thank you,
