We have been waiting for documentation since the release of
/View... but luckily with REBOL is so easy to find what's going on
by yourself that we (the REBOL community) have been able to
understand almost everything. :-)

I'm not sure if I understand correctly. However, the SPACE keyword
lets you set the default space that is applied between styles.
I.e. Try with something like:
Space 0x0 ; no space
Text "CBS"
Text "NBC"
; etc.

AF> ACROSS. What happened to DOWN ? Was it replaced by another keyword ?
BELOW replaces the old DOWN.
HTH,
Gabriele.
