	<p> <b>Please note:</b> If you're writing your own plugin for mimeTeX,
	please don't write php code using <b>system( )</b>, or any other

	minimal risk when used as illustrated above, but you're responsible

	<dd> mimeTeX receives your LaTeX math expression as a url
	query string, in which blank spaces are often encoded
	as <b>%20</b> or as plus signs <b>+</b>, and
	where actual plus signs are often encoded as <b>%2B</b>.
	But these conventions aren't always respected,
	and even when they are blank spaces may be either
	<b>%20</b> or <b>+</b>. The only ambiguity for
	mimeTeX is whether or not to translate plus signs <b>+</b>
	back to blank spaces. <br>
	If you know how your applications behave,
	then define PLUSBLANK to always translate plus signs <b>+</b>
	to blank spaces, or define PLUSNOTBLANK to never translate. <br>
	Otherwise, if you define neither,
	mimeTeX applies some common-sense rules to decide whether or
	not to translate. These usually work, but can't be guaranteed.
	If your query string contains actual blank spaces or
	blanks encoded as <b>%20</b>, then plus signs <b>+</b>
	aren't translated. Otherwise, if your query string
	contains <b>%2B</b>, then plus signs <b>+</b> are
	translated. If neither <b>%20</b> nor <b>%2B</b>, or both
	<b>%20</b> and <b>%2B</b>, occur in your query string,
	then the situation is ambiguous. In this case, if mimeTeX
	finds two or more plus signs <b>++</b> with no intervening

	For large negative space,   <b>\hspace{-10}</b>   permits
