Hey guys, Hrm, well, adding the `u` suffix to `.in` *did* change the indentation, but it's suddenly too small.
If you're curious, the code may be found here <https://github.com/Alhadis/AddressPrinter>. Be aware this was written strictly as a personal challenge; no macros or GNU extensions were used (I enjoy flagellating myself with difficult tasks for some reason...). You can test its output with `make template && make all`. Is there any way to gauge the dimensions of the output from within troff? The \n[.o] register is only giving me 72000, which isn't very helpful (I'm assuming that's supposed to reflect the page's horizontal dimensions...)
