Hi.

Response to the initial release of the macro set, mom, was very
encouraging.  Thanks to everyone who made suggestions and reported
problems.

A new release (mom-1.1.1) is now available at

    http://www.ncf.ca/~df191/mom.html

WHAT'S NEW
----------

o The macro file has been renamed from tmac.om to om.tmac, in order to
  comply with current groff policy concerning the naming of macro files.

o Added some examples of mom formatted files to demonstrate the use of
  various typesetting and document processing macros; also included
  syntax highlighting rules for the vi clone, elvis.

o Broken .RW and .EW fixed.

o Small fixes to .T_MARGIN, .SS, .WS, .COLLATE.

o String tabs now work as advertised when created/set from within
  other tabs.

o .TI now works properly in conjuction with left, right, and "both"
  indent styles.

o New macros -- .BR_AT_LINE_KERN, .PAGENUM_ON_FIRST_PAGE, .BREAK_QUOTE.

o .UNDERLINE_QUOTES now on by default in PRINTSTYLE TYPEWRITE as the
   docs state.

o Enhanced arguments to .PAPER, .AUTOLEAD, and the escapes \*[BP],
  \*[FP], \*[ALD] and \*[RLD].

See ChangeLog, NEWS, and the documentation for details.

Also, it's okay now to use the groff mailing list for mom-related
posts.
