I am using the -me macro package under a BSD4.2 system to generate
a document with typewriter figures. I tried moving the figures
into separate files and includeing them with .so <filename>.
For some reason, the first figure will work if I have it in the
original file, and fail if I try to .so a file with its contents.
The figure consists of:
.(z L
.hl
.(c
[text of figure here]
.)c
.sp
.ce
[figure title here]
\!.(x f
\![figure title here too]
\!.)x
.hl
.)z
The error message is:
Line [linenumber] -- Illegal nested keep |t
and I get one of these messages for each figure following the .so'd file.
If I take out the first .so and the figure entirely, the SECOND .so
causes problems. There is obviously something how files are handled
that I don't understand; perhaps I have to initialize the f keep before
it is used in a .so'd file.
Any explanations/suggestions? Thanx,
Kris Kugel
