ENTRIES

Each punctuation entry corresponds to one punctuation mark. Each entry can have one rule only.

ENTRY NAME

The name of the entry is the punctuation mark itself, or a special replacement sequence. Only one character is allowed in the name of the punctuation entry. The name of the entry must not be empty. The name of the entry must be unique.

RULES CHAINING

The rules are chained together. An example: if entry for comma requires a space after comma, as:

,        \s

when the comma is entered in the punctuation rule for some other punctuation mark, e.g. for period, it is used as expanded with its own rule. E.g.

.        ,

means that period+comma must be followed by the space (since comma must be followed by a space).
