This is a bug of tidy(1), which makes one of the HTML mistakes I vehemently hate. If you build the article with NO_TIDY=yes, you will notice that the tags ... have no spurious whitespace after and right before . I think we should notify the tidy(1) developers about this and see if there is an option that can inhibit this behavior. I couldn't find one by quickly reading through the tidy manpage. - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
