[latexrefman-discuss] *The* solution is to type @code{@{@}} after the command and before the space.

[Vincent Belaïche]

In node `\newcommand & \renewcommand', I can read this:

   A command with no arguments that is followed in the
   source by a space will swallow that space.  The solution
   is to type @code{@{@}} after the command and before the
   space.


Well, this is not *The* solution, as there are two alternative
solutions:

1) follow the command by an explicit space `\ '

2) Use package xspace, and tail the definition of command by \xspace.

I think that we already had a discussion that this manual should not
give opinions about what is good or bad, but just describe things as
they are. Shouldn't we document also the two alternative solutions.

  Vincent.
