-<h2>"Visible" Spaces</h2>
-You can generate a "visible" space, generally indicated as a small, squat
-"u," and useful in didactic material by using the
-<a href="ltx-342.html"><tt>\verb</tt></a> command or the
-<a href="ltx-79.html"><tt>verbatim</tt></a> environment.
-
-<h2>Non-breaking Spaces</h2>
-To generate a space where you do not want to allow a break for a new line use a
-<tt>~</tt>. For example,
-<pre>
- <tt>... in Table~2 and Fig.~3 ...</tt>
-</pre>
-
-<h2>Controlling Space in Text</h2>
-
-The ends of words and sentences are marked
-in the input by one or more spaces. LaTeX
-treats multiple spaces as if they were a single space. An end of line
-is also equivalent to a space; however, you can end a line
-<em>without</em> a space by using a
-<a href="ltx-434.html"><tt>%</tt></a> (anything following the
-<tt>%</tt> is considered to be
-a comment). LaTeX generally ignores spaces at the beginning of lines.
-<p>
-Paragraphs are
-delineated by a <em>blank line</em> -- one which does not contain even
-comments (anything following a
-<a href="ltx-434.html"><tt>%</tt></a> until the end of a line is
-a comment). See also the <a href="ltx-293.html"><tt>\par</tt></a>
-command.
-<p>
-LaTeX leaves extra space after punctuation, such as the period which
-ends a sentence,
-but, it uses a very simple rule (periods end sentences unless
-they follow a capital letter) so
-sometimes it needs a little help in determining when
-this is required. (However, see
-<a href="frenchsp.html"><tt>\frenchspacing</tt></a>.)
-Use
-<ul>
-<li><a href="ltx-431.html"><tt>\&lt;space&gt;</tt></a> to create an ordinary
- interword space
-<li><a href="ltx-432.html"><tt>\@</tt></a> before punctuation to force an "end of
- sentence" space
-</ul>
-<p>
-It is sometimes necessary to add a little additional space, such as between
-consecutive single and double <a href="ltx-433.html">quotation marks</a>.
-The <a href="ltx-185.html"><tt>\,</tt></a> command can be used for this purpose.
-<p>
-Also see

-<h2>Spaces after Commands</h2>
-
-Most LaTeX commands consist of a <tt>\</tt> followed by a string of
-letters. The end of such commands is indicated by a nonletter, i.e.,
-a number, a punctuation mark, a space, or the end of the line. If the
-command produces text and you want a space to follow this text, you cannot
-just leave a space after the command; that space is treated as the
-end-of-command signal and several spaces are equivalent to one in LaTeX.
-To generate a space after a text-producing command you can use
-<a href="ltx-431.html"><tt>\&lt;space&gt;</tt></a>.
-<p>
-For example
-<pre>
- <tt>I wrote this on <a href="ltx-330.html">\today</a> .</tt>
-</pre>
-generates "I wrote this on Jul 7, 1995." Note that the spaces
-between <tt>\today</tt> and the period in the input do not generate
-any space in the output. On the other hand,
-<pre>
- <tt>\today\ was a good day.</tt>
-</pre>
-or
-<pre>
- <tt>\today \ was a good day.</tt>
-</pre>
-will both produce "Jul 7, 1995 was a good day." The
-<a href="ltx-431.html"><tt>\&lt;space&gt;</tt></a>
-here is necessary to produce space between the date and "was."
-<p>
-An alternatative is to use braces to terminate the command. For
-example, <tt>\today{} was ...</tt> is equivalent to the above.
-
-<h3>Invisible commands</h3>
-Some commands do not produce any output text. LaTeX treats these as
-words of zero length and may try to leave spaces both before and
-after this "word" which will generally produce an undesirable gap.
-This can be avoided by attaching these commands directly to the
-preceding word, i.e., leaving no spaces.
-
-<H2>Some commands which create or manipulate space</H2>
-<ul>
-<li><A href="ltx-198.html">\addvspace</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-206.html">\bigskip</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-220.html">\dotfill</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-238.html">\hfill</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-240.html">\hrulefill</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-241.html">\hspace</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-266.html">\medskip</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-306.html">\rule</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-318.html">\smallskip</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-345.html">\vfill</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-347.html">\vspace</A>
-</ul>

-<h2>Boxes</h2>
-A box is an object which TeX treats as a single character; it is therefore
-not broken across lines or pages.
-<p>
-The following commands create or manipulate boxes
-<ul>
-<li><A href="ltx-226.html">\fbox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-237.html">\framebox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-262.html">\makebox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-265.html">\mbox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-277.html">\newsavebox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-294.html">\parbox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-302.html">\raisebox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-307.html">\savebox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-307.html">\sbox</A>
-<li><A href="ltx-337.html">\usebox</A>
-</ul>
