HELP!
I'm trying to accomplish "ballanced" multi-column printing with troff. I've
been trying to modify the "mm" 2C and 1C macros to do this, but I'm having
little success... Has anyone got an example or a set of macros I can do
this with?
Example:
texttexttexttexttexttext
texttexttexttexttexttext
texttexttexttexttexttext
break
texttext texttext
texttext texttext
texttext texttext
texttext texttext
texttext texttext
texttext texttext
break
texttexttexttexttexttext
texttexttexttexttexttext
texttexttexttexttexttext
The multi-column output may span several pages, what i'm trying to
avoid is on the last page having 3/4 of a page with only one
column and then the full width text below it.
Please mail your replys, I'll summerize if there is enough interest.
Thanks
