(MN-shifted not being removed by +MN-top.) +---Fixed--- + +MN_INIT not accepting "" args for default values. +---Fixed--- + +Documentation for margin notes erroneously states that the first +(optional) argument can be either "ragged" or "symmetric". S/b +"RAGGED" or "SYMMETRIC". +---Fixed--- + +Use of "" to tell MN_INIT to use the default for any specific +argument in the arg list broken. +---Fixed--- + +Paragraphs that begin with a "smart" double quote when the +preceding paragraph has no corresponding close quote (i.e. dialogue +passages containing multiple paragraphs) are starting off with a +close quote. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.3-a +============= + +First baseline of type isn't going where it's supposed to when the +docheader is turned off. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.3 +=========== + +Persistent error in html coding of docs (<nobr> tag). +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.2-f +============ + +Multiple line subheads near page bottom sometimes printing one line +of subhead at page bottom, and subsequent lines on next page. +---Fixed--- + +Post-quote spacing still wonky when paragraph spacing is turned on. +---Fixed--- (for good would be nice) + +RULE not always resetting quad and quad value. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.2-e +============= + +Some string definitions in om.tmac had superfluous spaces after +them (e.g. $COVERTITLE). +---Fixed--- + +Spacing under quotes not correct when paragraph spacing is turned +on. +---Fixed--- + + +First word of last line before footnotes is getting chopped. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.2-d +============= + +HEADER_FAMILY not changing header family. +---Fixed--- + +FAMILY, after COLLATE, not changing the family of all and every +page element or tag. +---Fixed--- + +Heads and subheads at the start of docs are printing one line lower +than they should. +---Fixed--- + +Gaps are appearing at the bottom of pages when there's a linebreak +followed by a subhead. +---Fixed--- + +When LS is invoked after a single text line at the top of a page +containing a T_MARGIN (set with T_MARGIN or PAGE), mom is performing +spacing adjustments as if the first line doesn't exist. +---Fixed--- + +Changes made to ALD and LS in version 1.2-c should not apply when +the document processing macros are used. There is a significant +conflict with the internal use of ALD when the docheader is only +one line long (as, for example, when DOCTYPE is CHAPTER). +---Fixed, pending discovery of further conflicts--- + +Version 1.2-c +============= + +Deferred footnotes not always being output, and groff complains +"ending diversion FN_OVERFLOW on exit." +---Fixed--- + +First .LS call after a top margin has been set (with .T_MARGIN +or .PAGE) causing mom to move off the top margin baseline. Also, +there are conflicts between ALD, LS and T_MARGIN. +---Fixed--- + +DROPCAP not properly restoring a running \*[COND] or \*[EXT] after +COND or EXT are given as arguments to DROPCAP. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.2 +=========== + +.PAD not co-operating with mom's fontstyles, esp. when a full +family+fontstyle is given to .FT. +---Fixed--- + +.DROPCAP -- ditto the above. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.9 +============= + +Footnote markers not resetting properly on new pages when COLUMNS +is enabled. +---Fixed--- + +When overflowed footnote material is the only footnote material on +the page or in the column, no footnotes are output. +---Fixed--- + +The AUTOLEAD used in FOOTNOTE not being disabled after FOOTNOTES +are output, or after PROCESS_FN_LEFTOVER/PROCESS_FN_IN_DIVER. +---Fixed--- + +COL_NEXT and COL_BREAK, when invoked during the last column on a +page, are overprinting the last column instead of breaking to a new +page when there are footnotes in the column. +---Fixed--- + +BR_AT_LINE_KERN not "break-and-spreading" text when used in +justified copy. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.8 +============= + +BLOCKQUOTE_FAMILY not changing blockquote family. +---Fixed--- + +FOOTNOTE, whether in column mode or not, was using +#FN_COUNT_FOR_COLS for all footnote markers and handling. +---Fixed--- + +Deferred footnotes that occurred on the second to last page of +documents not printing. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.7-a +=============== + +Suite number in DOCTYPE LETTER not printing. +---Fixed--- + +Footer elements not always vertically aligning. +---Fixed--- + +Footer rule gap not always correctly observed. +---Fixed--- + +Page numbering, when at top of page, not always falling on +HDRFTR_MARGIN. +---Fixed--- + +Default page numbering style for COPYSTYLE draft is DIGIT instead +of roman. +---Fixed--- + +Hyphens around page numbering when style is DIGIT, ROMAN or ALPHA +not vertically centered. +---Fixed--- + +EXT arg not working with DROPCAP. +---Fixed--- + +DOC_QUAD not automatically set immediately after START +---Fixed-- + +Tabs behaving erratically during document processing. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.7 +============= + +When DOCHEADER OFF <distance> is given, if <distance> falls short +of the top margin of running text, <distance> is not respected and +bottom margin falls low. +---Fixed--- + + +Version 1.1.6-e +=============== + +The " mark (doublequote), when entered while not in document +processing mode (i.e. just straightforward typesetting), outputs +nothing unless SMARQUOTES is invoked explicitly. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.6-c +=============== + +In document processing mode, docs that use *none* of the +docprocessing tags being ignored. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.6-b +=============== + +String tabs not picking up #L_MARGIN when #L_MARGIN not explicitly +set with L_MARGIN, PAPER or PAGE. +---Fixed--- + +Infinite loop when B_MARGIN is set lower than FOOTER_MARGIN during +doc processing. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.6-a +=============== + +Mom partially broken when run with groff 1.19.1. Don't know yet +what this is, whether bad coding in mom, or a problem with 1.19.1. +Only solution for now: run mom 1.1.6 with groff 1.18. +----Fixed--- + +Top margin of endnotes pages after the first endnotes page when +PRINTSTYLE is TYPEWRITE and endnotes single-spacing is turned on +falling one line too high. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.6 +============= + +DOCHEADER OFF (distance) not being respected. +---Fixed--- + +FINIS killing ENDNOTES page numbering and heads. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.5 +============= + +Draft and revision not appearing in page headers. +---Fixed--- + +\*[RULE] not working properly with indents and justified copy. +---Fixed--- + +Post-epigraph spacing in TYPEWRITE causing some first pages to run too +deep. +---Fixed--- + +Spacing of docheaders in TYPEWRITE not always consistent. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.4 +============= + +Blockquotes that span pages running too deep. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.3 +============= + +Footnotes not outputting on final page of document body when ENDNOTES +is invoked. +---Fixed--- + +Pad not working properly and/or spitting out warnings when fill mode is +on. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1.2 +============= + +PAGENUM_STYLE being ignored unless entered after START. +---Fixed--- + +Version 1.1 +=========== + +String tabs not working as advertised when set from within other tabs. +---Fixed--- + +.COLLATE sometimes depositing a header on the first page of a subsequent doc. +---Fixed with workaround BREAK_QUOTE--- + +.UNDERLINE_QUOTES in PRINTSTYLE TYPEWRITE not on by default as advertised. +---Fixed--- + +.TI not cooperating with other indent styles. +---Fixed--- + +.WS and .SS not cooperating. +---Fixed--- + +.RW and .EW not working. +---Fixed--- + +======================================================================== + +KNOWN PROBLEMS +-------------- + +The indent macros from the typesetting macro set may not always +perform well in conjunction with the document processing macros, +especially when documents are set in columns. Mostly, this is the +result of inadequate testing. There are only so many "who'd want to +do this anyway?" scenarios I can think of on my own. + +Epigraphs at the bottoms of page may sometimes run exactly one line +deeper than they should. The alternative (from my point of view) is +to have them run 1 line shorter than they should. The problem stems +from the fact the epigraphs are leaded differently than all other text, +and there's only so much adjusting that can be done with the whitespace +surrounding them to get them to bottom align. Since stylistically, +epigraphs should never appear at the bottom of a page/column without at +least some running text beneath them in order to make sense of the role +they play in page layout, this not likely to be fixed for some time. + |
