[latexrefman-discuss] nodes \raggedright & \raggedleft : \end

[Karl Berry]

       To affect a paragraph unit's format, the scope of the declaration
       must contain the blank line or @code{\end} command that ends the
       paragraph unit.

    I cannot believe that \end was meant, but surely it was \par.

It was written as intended, though it could surely be clearer.  The idea
being the well-known gotcha that if the raggedright group ends before
before the paragraph ends, it has no effect.  An example would seem to
be in order.

P.S. Where did the phrase "paragraph unit" come from?  Seems excessively
technical and confusing, plus undefined.  I'd prefer to just use
"paragraph"(s).
