Mysterious vertical space when using newcommand with expex
2
Ok, so here's some code that shows off the problem i'm having:
documentclass[10pt,letterpaper]{article}
usepackage{expex}
newcommand{gloss}[3]{ex[numoffset=2em,aboveglftskip=0pt]
begingl
gla #1//
glb #2//
glft #3//
endgl
xe}
begin{document}
gloss123
blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
ex[numoffset=2em,aboveglftskip=0pt]
begingl
gla 1//
glb 2//
glft 3//
endgl
xe
blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
end{document}
This is the output it makes:
As you can see, there's extra vertical space between the first gloss and the blahs. How can I get rid of this while still using newcommand?

It stems from the fact that gloss{.}{.}{.} leaves a spurious space in the input stream. You can avoid this by placing a % at the end, or by adding ignorespaces at the end of your newcommand definition:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{expex}
newcommand{gloss}[3]{ex[numoffset=2em,aboveglftskip=0pt]
begingl
gla #1//
glb #2//
glft #3//
endgl
xe
ignorespaces}
begin{document}
gloss123%
blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
ex[numoffset=2em,aboveglftskip=0pt]
begingl
gla 1//
glb 2//
glft 3//
endgl
xe
blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
end{document}

I don't know why this is happening but we can work around the issue by adding an negative vertical space vspace{-baselineskip}} at the end of the command.
documentclass[10pt,letterpaper]{article}
usepackage{expex}
newcommand{gloss}[3]{ex[numoffset=2em,aboveglftskip=0pt]
begingl
gla #1//
glb #2//
glft #3//
endgl
xe
vspace{-baselineskip}
}
begin{document}
gloss123
blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
ex[numoffset=2em,aboveglftskip=0pt]
begingl
gla 1//
glb 2//
glft 3//
endgl
