I'm not sure when this started happening, or why, but I can reproduce it in 1.19.3 and in the CVS version.
Following is an example. Note that there's no .TS H/.TH pair. mac-lkollar:/tmp lkollar$ cat test.n .\" ---- begin example ---- .\" format with groff -ms -t test.n >test.ps .LP This is a test, this is only a test. If this had been an actual document, there would have been something to read. .sp 7.5i .TS ; cb | cb || cb cb | cb || cb a | a || l . Current Smart Server sends Result Download State OACK? \^ = disabled Yes Smart downloading enabled _ enabled No Smart downloading disabled _ enabled Different Smart downloading disabled \^ value \^ .TE .LP This has been a test. .\" ----- end example ----- MacOSX 10.4.11, Intel, groff compiled locally. Any ideas? I can bracket tables in .KS/.KE as a workaround (confirmed), but that shouldn't be needed. -- Larry
