Lines: 16 Actually, I claim that Bill's fix to pic/pltroff.c is wrong. The comment says: /* internal troff limit: 13 bit for motion */ This means that the size of the bit field for representing motions inside of old TROFF is 13 bits. In typesetter-independent, this field was changed to 15 bits. Thus the line should be: if (xconv(xmax) >= 32728 || yconv(ymax) >= 32768) { /* ... */ This internal representations are discussed in Kernighan's report "A Typesetter Independent TROFF" (Bell Labs CS TR 97). -- = lee@rochester rochester!lee =
