From 2bbefa2e4d1dd7d26491de352833b411fd35f3d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "G. Branden Robinson" Date: Tue, 10 Sep 2024 04:16:08 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] doc/Guidebook.mn: Simplify table format. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The 'A' ("alphabetic") and 'N' ("numeric") column classifiers were being used to little benefit. Since 'A' was applying to every row of the table, none was more indented than any other, except via the inclusion of unadjustable, unbreakable space escape sequences `\ `, which work just as well with column classifier 'L' ("left"). In fact, even they are unnecessary; regular spaces will do. tbl(1): Ordinarily, a table entry is typeset rigidly. It is not filled, broken, hyphenated, adjusted, or populated with additional inter‐ sentence space. ...so furthermore convert the escaped spaces to regular ones. Similarly, 'N' applies several rules to manage alignment of decimal points. This table doesn't need them. Right-alignment of integers is just as easily achieved with the 'R' ("right") column classifier. --- doc/Guidebook.mn | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/Guidebook.mn b/doc/Guidebook.mn index c9182e31c..d25720602 100644 --- a/doc/Guidebook.mn +++ b/doc/Guidebook.mn @@ -2825,15 +2825,15 @@ Here is a list of the armor class values provided by suits of armor: .\" line and leading spaces to indent their second line. .TS center; -a n. +l r.
