Our MORE/bsd 4.3 system's nroff, troff, and /usr/5bin/troff commands share the irritating habit of producing an extra page if the final page of a document fills exactly, as witness this output from "script": Script started on Mon Aug 31 16:52:48 1987 $ nroff << EOF > .pl .5i > .nf > One > Two > Three > EOF One Two Three $ exit script done on Mon Aug 31 16:53:10 1987 The three blank lines between "Three" and "$ exit" above constitute the bogus extra "page" (since we've defined pages to be three lines long here). This bad habit is at its worst when using -me; any headers or footers will be printed on the bogus extra page. Surely someone knows how to overcome this bad habit; if it's you, I'd appreciate hearing from you by mail. --ado
