+ | ======Space Characters:====== | ||
+ | A //space// is whatever your system's isspace(3) function says it is. | ||
+ | Space characters (codepoint 32) and tabs (codepoint 9) are always spaces, | ||
+ | and additional characters may be spaces depending on your locale. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Because isspace(3) is a byte-oriented function, code points >= 256 that are spaces won't be honored. | ||
