Hmph. I experimented with the attached patch, but at least in my browser it only reduces the spacing inconsistency, it doesn't eliminate it. And from a semantic standpoint, this is not nice markup. Doing better would require substantial foolery with sub-columns and I'm not even sure that it's possible to fix that way. (We don't have huge control over inter-column spacing, I don't think.) On the whole, if this is our worst table problem, I'm happy ;-) regards, tom lane ------- =_aaaaaaaaaa0 Content-Type: text/x-diff; name="hack-table-9.1.patch"; charset="us-ascii" Content-ID: <23964.1588691756.2@sss.pgh.pa.us> Content-Description: hack-table-9.1.patch Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/func.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/func.sgml index d9b3598..557a3ac 100644 --- a/doc/src/sgml/func.sgml +++ b/doc/src/sgml/func.sgml @@ -222,7 +222,7 @@ repeat('Pg', 4) PgPgPgPg - datatype < datatype + datatype < datatype boolean Less than @@ -230,7 +230,7 @@ repeat('Pg', 4) PgPgPgPg = - datatype > datatype + datatype > datatype boolean Greater than @@ -254,7 +254,7 @@ repeat('Pg', 4) PgPgPgPg = - datatype =3D datatype + datatype =3D datatype boolean Equal ------- =_aaaaaaaaaa0--
