Hi all you specialists,

I have been trying to use jade 0.9 to process an experimental document,
and I am having problems with leaders (for TOC page numbers).  If I do

   (make leader (literal (if (> level 1) "." " ")))

I always get a dots leader, even if I include other literals.  In fact,
looking at the source it seems the RTF backend puts always in
`\tqr\tldot' regardless of the sosofo I give to it.  Hence the question:
how do I get an empty leader?  I tried using line-fields with
right-aligned , but did not have much success.

While I am at it, I might as well ask how should I specify
intercharacter spread, or is it possible at all?  For instance,
supposing I want to make spread 20%, what should I do?

Cheers,
