well obviously in a printed work you'd have a page break in this case, so i fully agree with that. however, people rarely print out our source code, so the various files in sw/ that include literal ASCII form feed characters are somewhat outdated; on a non-paginated display medium a rule may make sense :) _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
