Dear all, I have decided to give -mom a try for a scientific paper. Although it is not primarily intended for such task, I have found out, that I can adapt it to most of my needs. However, I have a few issues, that I am unable to work out. Any help is welcome.
Problem 1: I would like to have a cover page in my document, that looks exactly like the cover page -mom creates for me, but with a logo above the title. Is there any simple way to do that? Problem 2: My document is typeset in two columns. I would however like to have an abstract in full width under the document title and then the two columns on the same page for everything else. I can't find any way to do that, so I have for now put it on a separate page. Having a separate page has also the negative side effect that I end up having twice the title in the TOC, because the page with abstract is actually extra document followed by .COLLATE. Problem 3: I am having problem with lists that don't fit on one page or one column. In the case where the list doesn't fit the page, -mom inserts an extra page with one word and a warning about "environment stack underflow" and then continues on the following page. Same error when it breaks into the next column, but in that case it seems to render correctly. The "environment stack underflow" also comes up if I make more than 9 subheads in one column, but I am not able to reproduce this reliably. All this happens only when I use two columns. Problem 4: I need one extra level of headings (a subsubhead). The manual suggests to use paraheads for this, but that does not behave consistently for me, as it sometimes does not flush the first line left, even if I told it to do so. In case I decide to extend my om.tmac, are there any caveats in "cloning" what .SUBHEAD does and adding an extra .SUBSUBHEAD? The last thing, will there be any binary release of groff 1.21 for Windows? I didn't have much luck building it, there seem to be some hardcoded paths. I am currently using 1.20.1. Regards, Petr
