Re: [Groff] A few mom incompetencies

[Ted Harding]

It would seem that the horizontal line below the first line on the
output page is generated by the macro .NEWPAGE (tested by inserting
an extra .NEWPAGE). I can't work out from the [m]om.tmac file how
it does this, nor what should be done to prevent it happening
(it probably needs one of the default parameters to be changed),
but I'm pretty sure that this is where it is coming from.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with mom!
Ted.
