Definition:
Space-group symbol defined by Hall. Each component of the
space-group name is separated by a space or an underscore.
The use of a space is strongly recommended because it specifies
the coordinate system. The underscore in the name is only
retained because it was used in earlier archived files. It
should not be used in new CIFs.
