I wasn't aware. On re-reading cstr54, I see .h is defined as the "Text baseline high-water mark on current page or diversion," which is somewhat ambiguous, and diversions aren't mentioned in the info docs at all, which state: "The 'high-water mark' on the current page. It corresponds to the text baseline of the lowest line on the page." The issue doesn't affect my problem, but should we consider amending the info docs entry? "...corresponds to the text baseline of the lowest line on the page, or, if in a diversion, of the lowest text baseline in the diversion, measured from the start of the diversion." Words to that effect, anyway. -- Peter Schaffter http://www.schaffter.ca
