New User Question, Centrering Lines.

[ralphc]

I've just started to try using Lout.  I'm having problems centrering
lines.  This fails, the `Yours' appears at the same indent as the
`Some'.

    @PP
    Some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text,
    some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text.
    @PP
    clines @Break { Yours, }
    @PP
    Some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text,
    some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text.
    @PP

But adding a @OneRow or @OneCol works:

    @PP
    Some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text,
    some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text.
    @PP
    @OneRow clines @Break { Yours, }
    @PP
    Some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text,
    some text, some text, some text, some text, some text, some text.
    @PP

Why does @OneRow make this work since `Yours,' should only have one row
marker anyway?

Also, what is the proper way of getting a centred paragraph?  Are some
of the @PP's superfluous?

As an aside, I thought the user guide was quite clear but it would have
been nice to have a couple of complete simple example documents as well
as fragments of Lout.  Maybe a simple letter could be added as an
appendix or seperate file.

All in all, I already think Lout has a lot going for it.  For what
little my view counts!
