Hello folks, The recent discussion about the macro-package I'm using/should use for the list made me thing again about it. I started to rewrite it (and significantly enhancing it) using the -ms macro-package. Then It occured to me that this will only displace the problem (-ms seems not more widely available than -mm). So here is what I do propose : I will post 3 files each month : - A [nt]roff file that can be formated with either -mm or -ms (I'll come up with a solution similar to what Tony Hansen Proposed). - A PostScript file generated with groff 0.5 [ A really amazing stuff written in C++ :-) ]. But it will be formated for A4 paper (Sorry guys, but I live in France) - An Ascii file as before. Does anybody have suggestions, remarks, etc... -- "Jessie" P.S.: Keep those informations coming! jc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ jcc@adesign.uucp | "An artificial intelligence is better than none!" ..!inria!adesign!jcc | "Artificial intelligence matches natural stupidity!"
