[Groff] serious problems with -Txhtml

Gaius,


there is a serious issue with -Txhtml using the current CVS:
Whitespace is swallowed either before or after an equation.  Consider
this simple input

  .EQ
  delim $$
  .EN
  A $a$ B

with -Thtml you get

  A a B

but -Txhtml produces

  Aa B

Even worse, sometimes characters are swallowed too:

  .EQ
  delim $$
  .EN
  A.$a$.B

gives correctly

  A.a.B

with -Thtml, but -Txhtml produces

  A.a

Finally, grohtml confuses paragraphs; as an example you might try to
process the groff_diff man page (with -Txhtml) and look at description
of the `Dp' and `DP' commands (in the `Drawing Commands' section),
comparing it with the output of -Tps.

I suspect that all those problems are incarnations of the same bug
which I hope you can fix easily.


    Werner
