[Adrian Farrel]

OK, we’re agreed on what we want to achieve, just not on the wording to 
describe it 

 

How about…

 

   1.  Determine where the fold will occur.  This location MUST be

   before or at the desired maximum column, and MUST NOT be chosen

   such that the character immediately after the fold is a space

   (' ') character.  If no such location can be found, then exit

   (this text content cannot be folded)

 

Best,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

 

Text suggestions welcomed.   

 

What needs to be expressed is that a space character cannot occupy the column 
where the end-of-line '\' is to placed, as doing so would push that space 
character to the beginning of the next line, which the unfolding logic would 
subsequently delete, thinking that it was part of a user-placed "indent".  
Makes sense?

Kent, 

Thanks for the work.

 

I had a clear understanding of what “precede a space” means.

I struggle to understand what “on top of” means in a stream of characters. I 
wondered whether you were referring to vertical placement on the page (the text 
is talking about columns), but that seems crazy!

Do you mean that the fold must not be occupied by a space character?

I think the question is whether it is easier to describe a fold happening 
between characters or at a character slot.

The original text used the “between characters” approach. If you prefer to say 
you fold at a column, that’s fine, but probably “on top of” isn’t as clear as 
“the column at which we fold must not contain a space”.

 

Best,

Adrian

Abstract:
  This document defines two strategies for handling long lines in
  width-bounded text content.  One strategy is based on the historic
  use of a single backslash ('\') character to indicate where line-
  folding has occurred, with the continuation occurring with the first
  non-space (' ') character on the next line.  The second strategy
  extends the first strategy by adding a second backslash character to
  identify where the continuation begins and thereby able to handle
  cases not supported by the first strategy.  Both strategies use a
  self-describing header enabling automated reconstitution of the
  original content.

Kent, 

Thanks for the work.

 

I had a clear understanding of what "precede a space" means.

I struggle to understand what "on top of" means in a stream of characters. I
wondered whether you were referring to vertical placement on the page (the
text is talking about columns), but that seems crazy!

Do you mean that the fold must not be occupied by a space character?

I think the question is whether it is easier to describe a fold happening
between characters or at a character slot.

The original text used the "between characters" approach. If you prefer to
say you fold at a column, that's fine, but probably "on top of" isn't as
clear as "the column at which we fold must not contain a space".

 

Best,

Adrian
