I have tried all sorts of ways to set the footer length in ms, e.g.
.nr FL 6.5i
or
.FL 6.5i   (the .FL macro is actually defined in tmac.s)
or
.ev1
.nr FL 6.5i
.ev
or
.ll 6.5i

and so on, and nothing seems to budge the right footer I want to print.
What it is is a ".../n", where n is the page number.  As it is, I have set
.nr LL 6.5i
which is a little bigger than the default, but the footer won't move over
to match it.  Any ideas?  None of the books seem to help.
