Dear R-devel list

I noticed while checking a package that the demo/00Index file needs
more than one space between the name and a description, a requirement
which is not very clear from reading the manual:
"[give a] name and a description separated by white space"

I realized this point had been already raised a few years ago, but
remained unanswered. Maybe this point is still valid and the
documentation could be updated?
