Updates to 1.6g (Dec 2000)

nl_Rule – skips the rule if we are about to do a page throw.

nlt_makegrid – now calls nltMeasureTitles to allow for titles in setting the width for columns defined as ¯32768. This is broken out as a subfunction from nltMeasure which now calls it. See AutoMeasure for the testbed.

nlInclude – now takes note of margin settings, so to centre a chart you can set 1” margins left and right and the chart will scale to fit – see Includes.

nl_fix_params – fixes an interesting bug where you might have something in your substitution text which itself has a %nn value in it. This was then getting double-substituted, which is not what you want at all! However you can embed page and date markers in substituted text – see Subtest for an example. This also relaxes the limit on 9 parameters (nlUse) as they can be picked off in reverse order so multi-digit elements go first.
