Hello there, Another problem I have with the version.sty file is that \includeversion{SpaceLimited} \begin{SpaceLimited} \input{twocol} \end{SpaceLimited} includes the file twocol, but doesn't use the def's of page size from this file. Anyone out there cares to answer? Thanks Yossi PS Now- If TeX was a ***decent*** programming language, this would never have been a problem. Defenders of TeX claim that all its limitations are due to the fact that it is a macro processor etc. but even my C pre-processor is smarter than that, and it is no problem for it to handle something like: #ifdef SPACE_LIMITED #include "twocol.tex" #endif and I am sure this would work to cure the other bug I have mentioned in an earlier posting in the usage of a version environment inside \title{} command of latex. maybe, I should run the pre-processor on my files before latex, however Don knows what's good for me and he doesn't allow me to run TeX from stdin, which makes my life in a script writing even more difficult.
