this has been pissing me off recently. if i define a new commandLeave your definition as is and use "\TM{} some other text." That should solve your problem.
\newcommand{\TM}{Turing machine}
and then say in my document
... the \TM defined by blah blah ...
i will get the output ``the Turing machinedefined by blah blah.''
so i have to say
... the \TM ~defined by ...
I can't just define it to be
{Turing machine~}
because i want to be able to put punctuation directly after it.
How do people get around this? or do you just deal?
HTH,
