View source for Template:Spaced double prime/doc

{{dochead}}{{substitute|no}}{{clear}}
This template produces a {{w|prime symbol|double prime symbol}} ([http://www.compart.com/en/unicode/U+2033 U+2033] <code>″</code>) with leading space so it does not collide with preceding '''bold''' (<code><nowiki>'''</nowiki></code>) or ''italic'' (<code><nowiki>''</nowiki></code>) characters. It eliminates the need to have to type out <code><nowiki><span style="padding-left: 0.15em; white-space: nowrap;">″</span></nowiki></code> every time.

=== Technical notes ===
The difference between {{tlx|double prime|plaincode}} and this template is that {{plaincode|<nowiki>{{double prime}}</nowiki>}} is for letters that require little or no spacing, such as lowercase ''a'', ''o'', and ''s'', and uppercase ''A'' and ''L'', while this template is for letters such as ''d'', ''f'', and ''l'', and uppercase ''C'' and ''T'' that require more space.
