Description

Greetings and salutations.
First of all, my hat goes off to the people from Inkle for granting us this amazing tool to play with.

Now, onto the question. How does one glue the result of a choice with a previous line of text?
Here's an example:

```
I looked at the fire,
* [...knowing not what to expect] knowing not what to expect.
* [...expecting the worse]expecting the worse.
Obviously it produces the following text with a line break:
I looked at the fire,
knowing not what to expect.
```

So how do I glue the text together so it produces:
I looked at the fire, knowing not what to expect.

I've tried placing the glue before, after and inside the choice text; diverting to another knot or gather point, but nothing seems to work. The only time it actually does work, is in case of a fallback choice (with no text before or inside the `[]`), like this:

```
I looked at the fire, <>
* [] knowing not what to expect.
```

There is probably something simple I'm overlooking, since there is no similar issue, either opened or closed on the subject.

Thanks in advance.
