;;; Don't trim white space at start or end, and don't collapse white
;;; space in an index key.
;;;

;; This does not work currently. White space compression is
;; implemented by merge rules in tex.xdy; and we would need to undo
;; these rules. An implementation possibility is the postponing of
;; these merge rules and our ability to stop their activation. But
;; this is not implemented yet. Either we need a method to delete a
;; merge rule, or we need a hook in the kernel.

;; FIXME: I must coerce the error string to a simple-string because we
;; use a special reader syntax in index styles. This reader syntax
;; parses C-like strings and creates character arrays, but not simple
;; strings. Frankly, I don't know how I may code this more easily,
;; perhaps by a reader macro?
