NB...BB blocks that did break and shouldn't



If there's anyone out there as slow on the uptake as I am, you might like to
know the solution sent me by Carl DiStefano.

The file that was giving me trouble consisted of
	≪NB≫text ... 
	text ... 
	etc. ...
	last line of text ≪BB≫
	
	≪NB≫ etc.
with this formula -- with 1-8 (short) lines where "etc." is -- repeated about
700 times. I found that although the file did print out with some
unequal-length pages, suggesting that the program was *trying* to non-break
those blocks, it just couldn't be relied on.

Carl suggested doing something "simple" like adjusting the position of the
closing ≪BB≫ string. All I had to do to make it work -- at least in XyWin's
WYSIWYG display (haven't put it out on the printer yet) -- was move the ≪BB≫
down one line, while leaving everything else as above.
