Why doesn't the in-line form of CODE_EXAMPLE (ie, <CODE_EXAMPLE>(code))
use the same font as the non-in-line form? I don't know about other
doctypes, but in MEMO (and I think REPORT as well), using CODE_EXAMPLE
in-line looks the same as italics.
I really like the monospaced (Courier?) font used in the non-in-line
form of CODE_EXAMPLE. Is there another way to get the effect of a word
or phrase in whatever typewriter font in the middle of a line of more
typographic font?

that is doctype-specifiable in the DESIGN file:
\def\codexampleintextfont{\codexamplefont}
should produce what you want. using italics is just a common
convention.

Well, I tried changing this in the REPORT doctype, and it seemed
to work ok. Actually, I wanted tenpointmono instead of ninepointmono,
but there doesn't seem to be any.
I couldn't find any reference to codexampleintextfont in the CUP$MEMO
doctype, but I noticed that changing it in REPORT seemed to magically
change it in MEMO, so I guess MEMO just defines the header, and
uses REPORT for the body of the memo.
Now, since I've been monkeying around with REPORT, I'd like to define
my own doctype based on it. I'll call it GENERAL, since you're
no longer using that. I've copied the REPORT design file to
[DOC$TOOLS.LOCAL.FORMATS]PD$GENERAL.DESIGN. What else do I have
to do to add this design definition to the database?
Since I'm now going to have a private doctype, I'd still like to
know how to center the damn title and abstract lines. Is there
an easy way to do this?
Thanks.

| 468.3 | modify doc$designs.dat | CLOSET::ANKLAM | Mon Jun 08 1987 10:13 | 10 | |
Add an entry to the file DOC$DESIGNS.DAT in DOC$LOCAL_FORMATS, such
as:
name GENERAL/definitions=TAG$REPORT/macros=PD$GENERAL/fonts=TEX$STANDARD_FONT
(the last item is tex$standard_fonts ) this entry has to be written
all on one line. use the existing entries in that file as a model.
