Here's something to play around with.
Thanks, Tadziu. This may be what I've been looking for. I'm not a postscript expert, but this gives me something I can play around with comfortably. Will post back after I've tinkered a bit. And yes, it only has to work for the postscript device since it's easy enough to write an .if n condition in the case where a TTY is being used (not very likely if a doc is formatted with the mom macros, but conceivable). -- Peter Schaffter Author of The Binbrook Caucus http://www.schaffter.ca
