One of the fellows here came across a very unusaul happenstance
today. The first few lines of a document are
.po 8
.sp 5
.ul 1
Title text
.sp 3
Subtitle text
.po +8
.EQ I
x sub 1 ~~ x sub 2
.EN
When using (n)eqn with n/vtroff and the ms macros the
"subtitle text" would not appear on the output.
After a little experimenting I discovered that
one line of output text (NOT source line) was being thrown
away.
Has anyone run across/fixed this bug ?? If so I would
appreciate to hear your fix. By the way we have 4.2BSD.
Thanks much,
