Re: [Texmacs-dev] A bug or a feature?

Thanks! 

  this makes sense to me. Indeed I was not aware of this meaning of  <space>  (maybe I need to read Jolly Writer more carefully....)

Hi Max,

<space> is an infix operator (see std-symbols.scm),
so "a<space>=<space>b" does not really make sense.
You can enter tiny explicit spaces using \, \: \;

We might create better keyboard shortcuts though,
if you have a proposition that is well thought through
(e.g. in particular, one has to consider the complete
list of current variants and use cases).

To be clear, the following snippet

(equation* (document "a<space>=<space>b"))

does not show up as I expect. There is space betwen "a" and "=" but not between "=" and "b".

Basile,
I mean that I type [=] and then [space]+[tab] to insert a <space> character. Also if you copy and paste it from somewhere else it will be correctly inserted but not displayed. There will be zero space between = and the following text.

Hi Max,
I think you need this space to achieve =/ (whatever it means) instead of ≠ when typing the keys [=][spc][/].
In other words, the space is used to mark the end of the keystroke combination.

Dear all,
a friend (which I'm trying to convert to TeXmacs) has note this strange behaviour (which I never noticed before): in math mode, <space> after "=" is ignored. To check just type [=] and then [space] [tab] to insert <space> and write some more. Wider spaces work, e.g. [space] [tab] [tab] [tab] for example. <space> before "=" also works. So I guess this is a bug?

Joris?
