Hello lout users,
(this is longer to explain than to display. tl;dr: I attach 2 files,
run lout withose, why does the non-galley section looks different from
the galley'd one?)
I am teaching myself lout galleys but I am not sure I understand
how they flow. Today I wanted to convert:
@DP
@B { this is the bold part: } { This is the story of peter
and the wolf, a musical poem in which every instrument ... }
@DP
into something more structured, like:
@JE @DateDesc { this is the bold part } { This is the story of peter
and the wolf, a musical poem in which every instrument ... }
So I opened my format file and wrote
def @JEGalley { @Galley }
def @JEInto into { @JEGalley&&preceding }
named @DateDesc { insert-date-here }
right description
{
@B { { @DateDesc }{ : } } description
}
macro @JE { @DP @JEGalley @DP @JEInto }
The two do not match when rendered in a .pdf though: using @JE makes
the following text aligned ad the end of the @B section.
Please help me understand: why does this happen?
