Subject: [9fans] troff ignoring .eo/.ec after first time
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 07eb6ec2-ead3-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

Hello. Try this:

	tbl /n/sources/contrib/pietro/plan9prog.ms | troff -ms | page

On about the third page, some code begins, but at the print()  
statement at the end there is some strangeness. If you look inside  
the .ms file, there are some .eo and .ec requests. .eo turns off \x  
and .ec turns it back on. But why is it ignored after that first  
page, which works correctly?
