Thanks again... I think I'm going to have to stick with my current version until someone with better expertise puts together a package for Linux Mint, whose software manager *still* points at 2.16.2. Someone will get around to it sooner or later. I've tried building from source, but the configure phase bombs out because build depends on python3 version >3.5 and I have version 3.4. I am NOT going to upgrade python and break loads of other stuff!!!
Curiously, the NR for version 2.16.1 does, like the NR for the most recent version, include the \bar ":.|" way of doing things.
