Sometime ago I posted a query to the newsgroup about why the Output
Processor ignored attribute marks that were present in the macro file. This
behavior causes all the text in the macro file to be jammed on to one line
in the final output of the document.

I found that if on the first line of the macro you have the statement ".tcl
display" (basically run a basic program that does nothing), the macro starts
to behave as one would expect. That is, display multiple attributes/lines
down the page.

The only caveat to this is that this causes a blank line to be shown in the
final output.

I hope this may help others!

Does anyone else out there even use the Output Processor???

Regards, and Happy New Year!!!
