When using `\italic`, it seems that spaces are inserted before and after the
formatted text. Is it possible to disable this, ie, place an italic character
directly next to a non-italic character?
For example, the following prints 'a b c d e f g'; would it be possible to
make it print 'ab cde fg', with b, c, e and f still italic?
\version "2.12.2"
\markup {
a\italic{b c}d\italic"e f"g.
}
As an aside, it seems one can use either braces or double quotes to format a
string containing spaces. Is there a difference between these two methods?
Thanks!
