Thanks! However, documentation of the `pv' macro is still missing. Honestly, I'm not really happy about pv's strange calling sequence to use it for initialization. Do you have a better idea? Regarding the name `pv': Together with other auxiliary macros of the hdtbl package (like `index', `getarg', `DI', or `SP'), it unnecessarily pollutes the global namespace with a rather generic name. The right solution IMHO is to use the prefix `t*' for all of them, as already done for the hdtbl configuration strings. Can you work on this? Otherwise, I'll simply apply your patch, postponing the other necessary work. Werner
