| Summary | 0001714: Use consistent wording for splitting a macro value into fields/words | ||||
| Description | The lines 104939 try to say the same but use different words for it: Line 104939 says: > where a word, in this context, is defined to be a string delimited by the beginning of the line, a <blank>, or a <newline> (This definition wrongly assumes that macro values are still related to the lines they originate from.) Line 104946 says: > each white-space-separated word | ||||
| Desired Action | In line 104939, replace the complicated definition with the simpler 'each white-space-separated word', with no intended change in meaning. | ||||

|
On page 3114 line 104939, change:by the beginning of the lineto: by the beginning of the value |
|
|
Because 'beginning' is a positional value, not a character, and because white space includes some characters that are not <blank> or <newline> characters, changing it to just white space would be a change in meaning. |
