"YES, that's behaviour > I would want!". =) Right: you're totally right that what we're wanting here is basline-aligned dynamics. My scheme defs are just a hacked way of getting that. In fact, come to think of it, I think it was a comment by Werner a year or two ago to the effect of "yeah, baseline alignment leaves a lot to be desired; maybe better to find another way of doing it" that lead me down the other path ... Dunno what's involved in alignment handling; font stuff is magic to me. If HW or one of the metafont gurus ever decide to implement baseline alignment for dynamics, I'll find a way to pony up some money! :-) -- Trevor Bača [EMAIL PROTECTED]
