Re: [Groff] .mso for groff_hdtbl(7)

[Groff] Arithmetic in groff

Here is a little macro to enhance the restricted groff-arithmetics. It uses the unix bc-command for arbitrary precision calculations (see the bc-manpage). Maybe it's easier to use for people (like me) who are not familiar with pic to use its numerical engine like suggested by Ted: .de calc .

Re: [Groff] multiple EPS images placed on a page

Dean, attached is a corrected macro `t*cl', which caused the errors `multiplication overflow' and `division by zero' for long input lines. With this new `t*cl' the linelength can be more then 50 meters. You can replace `t*cl' in hdtbl.tmac or it can precede the input after loading hdtbl. Alt

If you have only one large page then HDtbl doesn't add header/footerlines, because pageheaders appear only beginning with the second page and pagefooterlines don't appear on the last page. So if You have changed the groff pagelength to 335c, for raw groff with `.pl 335c', or for macropackages p
