Can someone provide me with the complete troff mechanism (statements) for generating the Pater noster qui est... stuff found in Brian Kernighan's "A Troff Tutorial" -- the one where the `P' in Pater is roughly 36 points and decends down into the paragraph. The troff commands provided in the text do no produce the same results as shown in the tutorial. Many thanks.... Also (and part of my original confusion) - how does one set a trap to occur, say, 1 or 2 centimeters from a given (current) position on the page rather than an amount calculated from the top or bottom. Again, Thanks. David Geller Electric Logic, Inc. Washington, D.C. ..!seismo!sundc!eli!geller
