I am attempting to fo the following (pseudocode and realcode to
follow):

(nomal stuff with STDOUT)
$old = $=;
$~ = "HEADER";
$= = 25;  #cuz that's how many lines on the screen
(print some stuff with HEADER format)
$~ = "STDOUT";
$= = $old;
(more stuff with STDOUT)

I used a print statement to ensure that $= is being set properly, and
it is.  But when I print stuff with HEADER format, it seems to not
stick with that new $= = 25;  Yes, the output is still going to STDOUT
(screen), where I want it, but just not with the new
format_lines_per_page.

Thoughts, suggestions, concerns, complaints?

Thnx  --Alan
