I've noticed this warning myself, and confess that, while I've often considered questioning it, I've never gotten around to doing so. To avoid such similar queries in future, and in the absence of any definitive specification for implementing `.st', would it not be prudent to provide an appropriately commented interim `no-op' implementation; (i.e. a true `no-op', without the side effects of the `.nop' request)? Just a thought. Regards, Keith. _______________________________________________ Groff mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff
