The ~ in LaTeX
Hi, Your comment "afaik you put a ~ before \ref and \label commands - I forgot why..." has a simple answer. The ~ is a non-breaking space, so it won't put "page" at the end of a line, and a number at the beginning of the next line. This is how "properly typeset" literature should appear. 06:25, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
