Abbreviation: ã|\hsã%
Parameters: ã|units of measureã%
ã|Description:ã%
The amount of blank space in a line can be varied by the \horizontalspace
markup. This markup works only within the current line; no space will be
carried over if too little remains at the end of the line.
ã|Example:ã%
Our barbecues are brick. Our poetry is concrete:
\bqb\nin
\horizontalspace{84pt}pillow tectonics
\hs{48pt}during sleep
\hs{18pt}pillows come together
\hs{24pt}and move apart
\hs{18pt}like continental plates
\hs{36pt}mountain ranges
\hs{18pt}rise and fall
\hs{24pt}oceans
\hs{18pt}rise and fall
\bqe
\nin Like Gypsum Lee Ooze, art mimics geology.

\horizontalspace can be used in \settabs and \halign.
If you are using \monospace, then the units of measure should be
specified in tenths of an inch or in em's.
