Subject: xml entities and trailing space
Date: Sun, 7 Feb 2010 22:19:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <C42A1B99-6B80-4FC8-885D-C9DC2E69EC9D@uni-bonn.de> (raw)

Hi all, Hans,

this is something I had mentioned a few weeks ago, but wanted to complain about it again: when you define xml entities as TeX commands, those used to preserve trailing spaces. This hasn't been the case since a number of version. I would like to recommend havin the old behavior back (since adding spaces isn't as easy in xml as it is in TeX). The example below demonstrates the problem.

All best

Thomas

\startbuffer[xmltest]
<p>A &textbar; B</p>
\stopbuffer

\startxmlsetups xml:mysetups
    \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{p}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{xml:mysetups}

\startxmlsetups xml:p
    \xmlflush{#1} \par
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlsetentity{textbar}{\textbar}

\starttext
\xmlprocessbuffer{main}{xmltest}{}
\stoptext
