% \subsection{Chris' comments}
%
% There are several aspects of the handling of space in horizontal
% mode that are inconsistent or do not work well in some cases.
% These are largely concerned with ignoring the effect of space
% tokens that would otherwise typeset an inter-word space.
%
% Negating the effect of such space tokens is achieved by two
% mechanisms:
% \begin{itemize}
% \item |\unskip| is used to remove the glue just added by
% a space that has already had its effect; it is sometimes 
% invoked after an |\ifdim| test on |\lastskip| (see below); 
% \item |\ignorespaces| is used to ignore space-tokens yet to come. 
% \end{itemize}
%
% The test done on |\lastskip| is sometimes for equality with zero and
% sometimes for being positive.  Recall also that the test is only on
% the natural length of the glue and that no glue cannot be
% distinguished from glue whose natural length is zero: to summarise,
% a pretty awful test.  It is not clear why these tests are not all
% the same; I think that they should all be for equality.  One place
% where |\unskip| is often used is just before a |\par| (which itself
% internally does an |\unskip|) and one bit of code (in |\@item|) even
% has two |\unskips| before a |\par|.  These uses may be fossil code
% but if they are necessary, maybe |\@killglue| would be even safer.
% 
% Such removal of glue by |\unskip| may sometimes have the wrong result,
% removing not the glue from a space-token but other explicit glue;
% this is sometimes not what is intended.
%
% A common way to prevent such removal is to add an |\hskip\z@| after
% the glue that should not be removed.  This protects that glue
% against one |\unskip| with no test but not against more than one.
% It does work for `tested |\unskip|s'.   This is used
% by |\hspace*| but not by |\hspace|; this is inconsistent as the star
% is supposed to prevent removal only at the beginning of a line, not
% at the end, or in a tabular, etc.
%
% If this reason for removing glue were the only consideration then a
% tested-|\unskip| and protection by |\hskip\z@| would suffice but
% would need to be consistently implemented.
%
% However, the class of invisibles, commands and environments tries to
% be even cleverer: one of these tries to leave only one inter-word
% space whenever there is one before it and one after it; and it does
% this quite well.
%
% But problems can arise when there is not a space-token on
% both sides of it; in particular, when an invisible appears at the
% beginning or end of a piece of text the method still leaves one space
% token whereas usually in these cases it should leave none.
%
% Also, the current rules do not work well when more than one such
% command appears consecutively, separated by space-tokens; it leaves
% glue between every other invisible. 
%
% There is also a question about what these commands should do when
% they occur next to spaces that do not come from space tokens but,
% for example, from |\hspace|.  Should they still produce `just one
% space'?  If so, which one?  It is good to note that the manual
% is sufficiently cautious about invisibles that we are not obliged to
% make anything work. 
%
% Another interesting side-road to explore is whether the space-tokens
% either side of an |\hspace{...}| should be ignored.
%
% One alternative to the current algorithm that is often suggested is
% that all glue around the invisible  should be consolidated into a
% space after it (usually without stating how much glue should be put
% there).  The command |\nolinebreak| is implemented this way (and
% |\linebreak| should also be). This does not work correctly for the
% following common case:
% \begin{verbatim}
%   ... some text
%   \index{some-word}
%   some-word and more text.
% \end{verbatim}
% This is optimal coding since it is normal to index a word that gets
% split across a page-break on its starting page.  This would, on the
% other hand, fix another common (and documented) failure of the
% current system: when the invisible is the last thing in a paragraph
% the space before it is not removed and, worse, it is also hidden
% from the paragraph-ending mechanism so that an `empty' line can be
% created at the end of the paragraph.
%
% Another deficiency (I think) of the current system is that the
% following is treated as having the |\index| command between the
% paragraphs, which is probably not what the author intended (since
% there is no empty line after it).
% \begin{verbatim}
% 
%   \index{beginnings}
%   Beginnings of paragraphs ...
% \end{verbatim}
% 
% I know of no algorithm that will handle satisfactorily even
% all the most common cases; note that it could be that the best
% algorithm may be different for different invisibles since,
% for example, the common uses and expected behaviour of
% |\index|, |\marginpar|, |\linebreak|, |\pagebreak| and
% |\vspace| are somewhat different.  [For example, is
% |\vspace| ever used in the middle of a paragraph?]
%
% One method that can (and is) used to make invisible commands produce
% no space when used at the beginning of text is to put in some glue
% that is nearly enough the same as no glue or glue of zero length in
% all respects except for the precise test for not being exactly equal
% to zero; examples of such glue are |\hskip 1sp| and, possibly better
% but more complex, |\hskip -1sp \hskip 1sp|.  However, this only works
% when it is known that user-supplied text is about to start.
% 
% Some similar concerns apply to the handling of space and penalties
% in vertical mode; there is an extra hurdle here as |\unskip| does
% not work on the main vertical list.  The complexity of the tests done
% by |\addvspace| have never been explained.
%
% The implementation of space hacks etc for vertical mode is another
% major area that needs further attention; my earlier experiments
% did not produce much improvement over the current unsatisfactory
% situation.
%
% One particular problem is what happens when the following very
% natural coding is used (part of the problem here is that this looks
% like an hmode problem, but it is not):
% \begin{verbatim}
%   ... end of text.
%
%   \begin{enumerate}
%     \item \label{item:xxx} Item text.
%   \end{enumerate}
% \end{verbatim}
%
% \subsection{Some immediate actions}
%
% \begin{itemize}
% \item Fix bug in |\linebreak|.
% \item Fix bug in |\\*|.
% \item Reimplement |\\|, etc, removing extra |\vadjust|s and getting
% better error trapping (this seems to involve a lot more tokens).
% \item Investigate whether |\\|, etc need to be errors in vmode; I
% think that they could be noops (maybe with a warning).
% \item Make all(?) |\unskips| include test for zero skip (rather than
%   other tests or no test).
% \item Consider replacing |\hskip 1sp| by something better (here
%   called an `infinitesimal' skip).
% \item Look at all |\hskip\z@| (or similar) to see if they should be
%   changed to an `infinitesimal' skip.
% \item Resolve the inconsistency between |\hspace| and |\hspace*|.
% \item Remove unnecessary |\unskips|.
% \item Investigate and rationalise the `newline' code.
% \item Find better algorithms for all sorts of things or, easier(?),
%   fix \TeX{} itself. 
% \end{itemize}

%  |\@bsphack| and |\@esphack|
%  used by macros such as |\index| and
% |\begin{@float}| \ldots |\end{@float}|
%  that want to be invisible --- i.e.,
%  not leave any extra space when used in the middle of text.  Such

%  The macro in question should not create any text, nor change the

%
% Before giving the current definition we give an extended definition
% that is currently not used (because it doesnt work as advertised:-)
%
%    These are generalised hacks which attempt to do sensible things
%    when `invisible commands' appear in vmode too.
%
%    They need to cope with space in both hmode (plus spacefactor) and
%    vmode, and also cope with breaks etc.  In vmode this means
%    ensuring that any following |\addvspace|, etc sees the correct
%    glue in |\lastskip|.
%
%    In fact, these improved versions should be used for other cases
%    of `whatsits, thingies etc' which should be invisible.  They are
%    only for commands, not environments (see notes on |\@Esphack|).
%
%    BTW, anyone know why the standard hacks are surrounded by
%    |\ifmmode\else| rather than simply |\ifhmode|?
%
%    And are there any cases where saving the spacefactor is
%    essential?  I have some extensions where it is, but it does not

% \subsection{Vertical spacing}
%
%
% \LaTeX\ supports the plain \TeX\ commands 
% |\smallskip|, |\medskip| and |\bigskip|. 
% However, it redefines them using |\vspace| instead of |\vskip|.
%
% Extra vertical space is added by the command
% |\addvspace|\marg{skip},
% which adds a vertical skip of \meta{skip} to the document.
% The sequence\\
%         |\addvspace|\marg{s1} |\addvspace|\marg{s2}
% is equivalent to\\
%         |\addvspace|\marg{maximum of s1, s2}.

% |\addvspace| should be used only in vertical mode, and gives an

% vertical space if |@minipage| is true. The minipage environment uses
% this to inhibit the addition of extra vertical space at the beginning.
%
% Penalties are put into the vertical list with the
% |\addpenalty|\marg{penalty}
% command.  It works properly when |\addpenalty| and |\addvspace|
% commands are mixed.
%
% The |@nobreak| switch is set true used when in vertical mode and no

% heading commands to inhibit page breaking after a heading.)

%    This idea is borrowed from the \textsf{amsmath} package but

%
%    This command is a low-level command designed for use only before 
%    hyphens or dashes (such as |-|, |--|, or |---|).
%
%    It could probably be better implemented: it may need its own
%    private token register and temporary commmand.
%
%    Setting the hyphen in a box and then unboxing it means that the
%    normal penalty will not be added after it---and if the penalty is
%    not there a break will not be taken (unless an explicit penalty
%    or glue follows, thus the final \verb=\nobreak=).
%
%    Note that even if it is not followed by a `-', it still leaves
%    vmode and sets the spacefactor; so use it carefully!

%   This is a robust command that produces a horizontal space at
%   which, in paragraph-mode, a line-break is not possible.  We then
%   define an active |~| to expand to it since this is the documented

%   want to use active characters as the \LaTeX{} internal commands.
