[net.text] Faulty TeX square root

tss@astrovax.UUCP (Thomas S. Statler) (11/08/84)

  Our version of TeX seems to be unable to produce radicals properly; the
angular character out in front is set too low to connect with the overline.
Anybody know how to fix this? Reply by mail, please. (We don't have any
TeX experts here, so be gentle.)
  Thanks in advance.

It's due to a bug in pxp.  Remake your TeX changing the call to pxp to be
	pxp -O -f

(insert the -f flag).  Let me also plug the TeX Users' Group.  This fix was
announced in that organization's newsletter during the past summer.
