I thought you were telling me to ask google in french instead of in "short". Turns out that there is a joe mode named "french" that does what I want. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.5 (Laicolasse))

Ah. I thought you were happy and just forgot about it. :)

I was curious about why it is called "french" and it took me on a google journey. It turned out to be a lot of style guides all over network. In the nineteenth century "french spacing" (single spacing) was used by french publishing houses. Hence "french" [1].
