Of course, the real output, after a LaTeX run, would be indistinguishable. (Note that whether the whitespace must be italic or not may be debatable, but you should probably keep whatever was in the input file) |
Hmmm... spaces should only remain "formatted" if both the previous and the next character is formatted exactly the same way. (This is taken care of by a formatting normalization plugin... and I failed to indicate this in my much simplified code.)
My example was therefore incorrect. But the same problem exists with this slight modification that is legal/plausible within the framework of pacify.
Code:
T h i s i s i n d e e d a s t r a n g e i d e a !

I might give this a try first actually. Thanks, Jellby.
