;; Discard leading and trailing white space. Collapse multiple white
;; space characters to blank.
;;
;; FIXME: How do I specify tabs in that regexp? [ \t] does *not* work,
;; it is taken as blank and t.
;;
;; FIXME: Definition of these rules should be postponed until we start
;; with the actual work. Then they should be only issued if module
;; keep-blanks is not loaded. Module keep-blanks would set a flag, and
;; this code would check for it. We will need a hook in the kernel, to
;; achieve that goal.

;; Handle TeX markup
;;


;; First, some markup that produces output and that we want to keep.
;; If this module is required, similar merge-rules for other markup
;; that shall be kept must be defined first. Otherwise it will be
;; discarded, by the default rule below.

;; Ignore TeX commands by default. Some macros are known to be written
;; to index files where the arguments must be ignored as well. Our
;; argument parsing code is optimistic -- it will be possible to break
;; it. Let's wait for an error report and repair it then... ;-)
