Hi again. As Jon's suggestion went counter to my experience, I
experimented with it further. The
.if n .na
does not seem to have any effect when the document also sources www.tmac,
which I do for the .URL macro. It does not seem to matter if the .mso
www.tmac is placed before or after the call to .na, the latter won't work
in its presence. Something for Gaius to look at?
The workaround is to not source www.tmac for nroff, and supply an alternate
definition for .URL (which is not difficult).
