355.0. "<ENDDISTLIST> w/o <DISTLIST> breaks strangely" by COOKIE::WITHERS (Le plus ca change...) Thu May 07 1987 17:14

If a document contains <ENDDISTLIST> without <DISTLIST> in the MEMO style,
things become extremely ill.  It is very hard to find what broke.  In
fact, my thanks go to Rose for finding the solution to this problem.

The following response is a sample GNC file and the response after that is
the LIS file generated.

355.3fixed in 1.0CLOSET::ANKLAMMon May 11 1987 19:047
    
    This has been fixed; you will receive a message saying that
    <enddistlist> is not preceded by <distlist> and the tag will be
    ignored.
