559.0. "Unwanted space preceding <math_char>" by AITG::BODGE (Andy Bodge, LISP Documentation) Thu Jun 25 1987 17:05
    I need to get a bullet character inside parentheses, like this:
    
       (o)
    
    But no matter what I do, I get the typeset equivalent of:
    
       ( o)
    
    Topic 480 in the old notesfile suggests using <math>:
    
       (<math>(<math_char>(BULLET)))
    
    That fixed a BL6 problem in which extra space appeared after a
    <math_char>.  That problem doesn't exist anymore, but we still get
    the gratuitous space before the <math_char>.  I suppose I could
    use:
    
       (<math_char>(BULLET) )
    
    to even out the space, but that would be subject to line breaking.

| 559.2 | But for T1.0? | AITG::BODGE | Andy Bodge, LISP Documentation | Fri Jun 26 1987 10:02 | 3 | 
|  |     For T1.0, do we just edit the .TEX file, then?

| 559.3 | fix TEX file | CLOSET::ANKLAM |  | Fri Jun 26 1987 11:20 | 4 |

    If you need to, that is unfortunately the only way in T1.0
