Anyway, is there a use case we can consider?
I'm my case, converting the bjam docs into quickbook, I have a table of
options. With the option and a description, some options have a space
between it and the value. But when the table is displayed the options
wrap because the description is long. For example, with:
[table
[]
[ [[^-f''' '''/Jambase/]]
[Read /Jambase/ instead of using the built-in Jambase. Only one -f
flag is permitted, but the /Jambase/ may explicitly include other files.] ]
]
And without the ''' ''' the row renders as:
-f Read Jambase instead of using the built-in Jambase.
Jambase Only one -f flag is permitted...
Having to use ''' ''' is cumbersome, makes the quickbook code hard
to read on it's own, and error prone. I made at least three errors while
inserting them in my case. Which I only discovered during/after
conversion. And don't be misled by the teletype, I can see such things
coming up outside of that.
