I use a set of troff macros for documentation that takes care of most of my needs. However, there is one thing that the macros do not have that I would like to implement. What I like is the capability to set a string to a specific value only until the next page break, whether that is encountered by a .bp or by tripping the footer. I want to use this string in my footers, and after the next page starts reset this string to either its previous value or null. My troff fluence is not quite up to this point. Anyone got any suggestions? Thx in advance, Joseph Carbonaro uw-beaver!ssc-vax!carbo Boeing Aerospace Seattle, Washington (... Where a day without sunshine is like nine months of the year.)
