Hello,
this is slightly off-topic:
when using supp-vis in a plain-tex document, it runs ok with normal
TeX, but not with pdfetex:
\input supp-vis
Hello \TeX!
\bye
--------------------------------------------------
Running `PDFTeX' on `test' with ``pdftex "\nonstopmode\input test.tex"''
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
\write18 enabled.
entering extended mode

Runaway text?

Any way around this?

Hello again,
for those who don't know supp-vis but know what glue and penalties
are:
try \showmakeup and you get an idea where penalties, glue etc. are
inserted. This is a very cool debugging tool, because it (amazingly)
does not interfere (as far as I can see) with the actual layout.
Patrick
