Hmm, I'm confused. You mean @minus within @code{}?
-item @code{-x}
-@tab @code{- x}
+@item @code{@minus{}x}
+@tab @code{@minus{} x}
From info "(Texinfo)minus":
"You should not use `@minus{}' inside `@code'
or `@example' because the width distinction is
not made in the fixed-width font they use."
But it does indeed typeset a bit differently on html
at least. Did I get that "@code{@minus{}x}" right?
Thanks,
