Hi all.
I apologise for misleading tuhs, pm does not do paragraph at a time formatting; memory is not what it used to be.
It does have some interesting ideas nonetheless - and I have been inspired to try it again.
The code and macros should be here:

[I haven't been able to check as i am on holiday]
The paper describing it is here:
