    Howdy,

    09 Mar 22 15:28, you wrote to me:

    For every page, I got a message header, followed by a blank line then
    a "Pause" (as if the screen was full). After pressing a key, the
    header cleared and I got the page. Very different to how messages are normally presented.

    That's really odd. There's no other control codes or such in that text.

    Thought you might like to know.

    Yes, thank you. I will keep working on that script.

    I'd thought I'd mention, that this weeks FG presented nicely. You fixed it :)

    The only oddity was page 18 was a mere 2 lines (and the last 2 lines related to page 17) - I guess there was a page break after it and that's way page 19 started with a new chapter.

    Hello deon,

    No, there was no page break. If you look at the hatched FG (the unaltered one), you'll see there is no page break in there and it's a solid page. Something is triggering csplit to break pages and I have to figure out what it is.

    I'll work on it this week though this week is already slipping through my hands. The next three weeks I am going to be very busy away from the ol' console.
