Yes, but when using older Unix tools like grep or sed, it makes things a LOT easier to have the entire marker, including all its attributes, on one line. There are also plenty of editors that will wrap the line for you without actually inserting a line-break (Emacs for example). I asked for this option a few weeks ago and it is gratifying to see that I am not the only one who would find it useful. It is also gratifying to see it on the "Pending" list. Thanks, Dave. Now what about zero-padding slide numbers with %03d? :-) Cheers, Erik Rossen ^ rossen@freesurf.ch /e\ http://www.multimania.com/rossen --- GPG key ID: 2935D0B9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75 iD8DBQE5jRA+Y88aPik10LkRAorNAJ9jm0LWjTJcXg8oy/YLYlxCXIh4jgCeMSFK tNp1K85DtPzwa2x+xx+Flb8= =wwx9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
