docbook-apps

Hi Sam,
I noticed the extra space, and it is caused by a trailing space in the
section title text, not the stylesheet.

Thanks a lot! Indeed, this is a huge improvement, see:
http://clisp.podval.org/impnotes/mt.html#mt-unsafe
however, programlisting/lineannot is a fixed width environment,
i.e., each extra space is seen on the screen, observe
the spaces between "other" and "mutable" in:
“Hash Tables, Sequences, and other mutable objects”

Cannot expect perfection :-)

actually, it is caused by the indentation in the original text.
you are right - it does come from the source, not inserted by the stylesheet.
however, I think it would be nice if the stylesheet removed the extra spaces,
like with `sed 's/ */ /g'`
