I seem to have a problem with the <reference> tag and the bookreader output
format. Within a table, I have the following...
<TABLE_unit>
<table_row>(Long\astadr \Address of <reference>(Event_Ast\text) Routine
\<reference>(Event_Ast\value))
<table_row>(Long\astprm \<reference>(Event_Ast\text) Parameter)
<ENDTABLE_unit>
...but the results are as if I had said...
<TABLE_unit>
<table_row>(Long\astadr \Address of <reference>(Event_Ast\full) Routine
\<reference>(Event_Ast\value))
<table_row>(Long\astprm \<reference>(Event_Ast\full) Parameter)
<ENDTABLE_unit>
...with the full "Section n.n.n, blah" appearing.
Is this a known restriction ?
Is there something I have omited to do ?
Is there a work-around ?
Any help greatly received

That's a feature, not a bug :-) In the V1.0 Bookreader, we create
hotspots using TeX hboxes, which are not permitted to break across
lines. So a long line of text (a header, for example) in a hotspot is
likely to run far past the right margin and look really ugly. 'Section
n.n.n' seldom, if ever, creates a problem at the right margin, so we
override the \text argument with the behavior of the \full argument
(which gives you the text that you wanted and allows us to create a
reasonable hotspot). Bookreader V2 creates hotspots differently and
will allow them to break across lines, so this restriction will be
lifted in the future.
