hi, second try (something went wrong the first time...):
I stumbled over the following:
I have some ms-macros to collect .NH section headings automatically in a table
of content
(TOC) with the correct section number. a stripped down variant is attached. in
order to
account for .SH sections as well I modifed this recently. the calling syntax is
.NHH n heading
where `n' is the level and `heading' the section header. if `n' is set to 0 a
`.SH'
section should be inserted, otherwise a level-n `.NH' section. I now noted that
inserting
.NHH 0 heading
calls in the document leads to omission of the \*[SN] information from the TOC
despite
correct numbering in the document. only if one uncomments the third line in
the attached
example (i.e. `.rm SN') everything is ok.
question: can someone explain to me what actually is going on? somehow
something seems to
go wrong with the `.als SN SN-DOT' or I unintentionally mask the correct
definition of
\*[SN] or whatever. I don't get it why the `.NH' calls work, but \*[SN] no
longer contains
the correct information if I insert the `.SH' option in the macro definition.
why have I
explicitely `.rm SN' first??
any ideas would be appreciated :-)
