Because of the fixed spacing of characters on a typewriter, two spaces were used to clearly show the end of a sentence and to separate it from the start of the next sentence. With the proportional spacing in word processors and electronic devices, two spaces no longer were necessary and in fact the use of two spaces clearly identifies the author as a previously typewriter trained individual.
