525.0. "LSEdit fill characteristics" by CUPOLA::HAKKARAINEN (with hasty reverence) Thu Jun 18 1987 17:50

    This may be an LSE issue, but, since the SDML support came from
    here ...
    
    Any pointers to a way to redefining the fill delimiters so that
    the left angle bracket could be recognized as a start-of-paragraph?
    I've done something like this in Eve, but I don't know my way around
    LSE that well.

    The LSE FILL command fills the select range.  Thus, you could write
    a TPU procedure to find the angle brackets or blank lines, set the
    select mark and position appropriately, and issue the FILL command.
    Alternatively, use the the TPU FILL builtin directly.  (LSE uses
    the TPU FILL builtin for ordinary text filling).
    
    As far as I know, the code in LSE that selects the current paragraph,
    for the case where you don't provide a select range, is hardwired
    into LSE.  There is no way to just tell it to recognize angle brackets
    as paragraph delimiters.
    
    Another alternative is to do what I do:  use lots of blank lines.
    Eventually I'll get around to customizing my own SDML templates,
    to include the extra white space.
