Re: The @ChapterGap parameter

[Jeffrey Howard Kingston]

I've just done a grep of the User's Guide, and found no @ChapterGap in
it anywhere.  Perhaps nijbhav means @AboveChapterGap, which determines
the amount of space above the chapter title on the first page of the
chapter.  This option does not affect whether or not the new chapter
begins on a new page: it always does, and there is no way to start
a chapter on the same page as the end of the previous chapter.
