gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.
commit 19dd6250feb793f03fadf3b02cae374dd3cabebf
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
AuthorDate: Mon May 18 19:30:58 2020 +1000
groff_diff(7): Correct spacing issues.
Use adjustable space (\~) instead of fixed-width space (\ ) in arguments
to two-font macros. There are few use cases for "\ " in man pages, and
no legitimate ones I can think of; usually people want adjustable space
(use \~ or quote the macro arguments), or \~ is harmless because the
space won't be filled anyway, as in the tag to a tagged paragraph (.TP),
or they want filling disabled to force alignment in an example (use
.EX/.EE) or some other context (use tbl(1)).

There is a continuation convention which permits the argument to the
-.B x\ X
+.B x\~X
command to contain newlines: when outputting the argument to the
-.B x\ X
+.B x\~X
command, GNU troff follows each newline in the argument with a
.B +
character (as usual, it terminates the entire argument with a
newline); thus if the line after the line containing the
-.B x\ X
+.B x\~X
command starts with
.BR + ,
then the newline ending the line containing the
-.B x\ X
+.B x\~X
command should be treated as part of the argument to the
-.B x\ X
+.B x\~X
command, the
.B +
should be ignored, and the part of the line following the
.B +
should be treated like the part of the line following the
-.B x\ X
+.B x\~X
command.
