Eng., U of Toronto Distribution: na Date: Wed, 23 Aug 89 00:38:22 EDT I have a problem in troff using the -ms macro. I'm trying to automatically generate a list of tables with page numbers. I put the tables inside .KF/.KE floating keep for obvious reasons. The problem is that if the table is located at the point it is generated, the page number I grab from \n(PN is fine. BUT, if the keep floats to the NEXT page, the page numbering is off by one. So...how do I get the actual page the keep ends up on? If you know what I'm talking about :-) and you can help solve my problem, please e-mail me, or post if it bounces. Thanx, Tom. -- I can be reached at...
