All,
Examining recent log files, I see the message
suggestion > use \thinspace instead of \,
When was this instituted?
a while ago
What does it mean? Has \, been deprecated? For many years it was
recommended as a short form of \thinspace, and implementing the
replacement would certainly result in much less readable source.
not depricated but these single character commands are somewhat weird (i
always forget what they mean, not that i ever use them; when many are
needed one can wonder if something else should be fixed instead)
(for instance in macro definitions i'd not use \, but the more verbose
\thinspace)
