 ------------------------------------------------------------------

I just put a new version of my Jadetex macros on the TeX archives in
macros/jadetex. I have made the majority of math flow objects work in
at least skeleton fashion; just marks are so far untouched. Nested
fences give the wrong result, and radicals are limited to roots.

If anyone would care to give me some DSSSL code to turn

 <fd><no>33</no>A+B</fd>

into a displayed equation labelled with (33) on the right hand side,
i'd be happy. as in

    A + B                         (33)

what construct would people use to combine the math object with the
label? at present i have 
(element fd
 (make display-group
 (make math-sequence
   math-display-mode: 'display
   min-leading: 2pt
   font-posture: 'math
   (process-children-trim))
))

and ignore the <no>

In general, Jadetex has two major flaws at present:

 a) vertical spacing still isn't right at times
 b) tables are only rudimentary

I expect to fix a) soon, but tables in general are horrid.

problems with hypertext linking should be solved soon with some
suggestions James gave me
