Nori> i will get the output ``the Turing machinedefined by blah blah.'' Yup. That's because the space after \TM signals the end of the macro name, so it gets eaten up. The standard way around it is do use "\ ". i.e. "... the \TM\ defined by blah blah..." If you want something uglier, you can use "... the \TM{} defined by blah blah ..." You probably don't want to use ~ since ~ is a non-breaking space. -- Hubert Chan <hubert@uhoreg.ca> - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
