That's what I see too. Duh. I assumed your statement "the whitespace is not neccessary" meant "the whitespace is ignored". Repeat after me: "assume makes an ass out of u and me" :-( > About what? without the leading white space produces an > indent, are you saying the other formats get this wrong?

The default indentation created by (or, to be precise, created by the corresponding HTML code) is much smaller than the indentation created by . I added the additional whitespace to have an almost identical amount of indentation in the new version. BTW: I've found another instance of the original problem: There's a <\@> a few entries later. The patch replaces <\@> with <\@> While I'm here :-) - replace /etc/remote with ... - replace -Elements with -elements - replace -elments with -elements - remove the useless -elements around the -elements; this change removes two tidy-warnings - replace the first instance of tip with &man.tip.1; - replace the second instace of this element with tip and add a command-element around the while of "in a while loop". --- book.sgml.orig Fri Jul 21 16:17:22 2000 +++ book.sgml Fri Jul 21 16:32:40 2000 @@ -8368,30 +8368,26 @@ This is often a problem where a university has several modem lines and several thousand students trying to use them... -Make an entry for your university in /etc/remote -and use <\@> for the pn capability: +Make an entry for your university in /etc/remote +and use <\@> for the pn capability: - - big-university:\ + big-university:\ :pn=\@:tc=dialout dialout:\ :dv=/dev/cuaa3:br#9600:at=courier:du:pa=none: - - + Then, list the phone numbers for the university in -/etc/phones: +/etc/phones: - - big-university 5551111 + big-university 5551111 big-university 5551112 big-university 5551113 big-university 5551114 - - + -tip will try each one in the listed order, then give up.
