Thank you for the quick reply.

I should read the log to notice such problems. I guess I will use `\Pr`
then.

But seriously does somebody really need a lot of ¶ in there texts? (If
yes I would be interested when.) If not, why is such a nice command name
reserved for such a purpose?

I guess this has been there for a long time, so redefining would break
too much?


Thanks,
