[texhax] 'regular' vertical spacing with shortenumerate package

[Joan Boorstein]

When one uses the shortenumerate package the vertical spacing between
adjacent lines (when both lines are produced by the shortenumerate package)
is reduced from that of the enumerate package.  Is there a way to get
LaTeX to use a larger vertical spacing, say that used by the enumerate
package?  The documentation for the package does not mention this issue,
nor does it mention the fact that vertical spacing is reduced.  

Thanks in advance for any help,
Joan Boorstein
