    You remember correctly. We need to bring some of the `define definition
    into the `pragma specification, to permit backslash continuation of lines.
    That will allow you to render in the line length constraints of the
    text. The capability is useful in its own right, so we won't be
    introducing requirements for the sole purpose of avoiding layout
    problems in the text.

    I will plan to discuss this at the Wednesday meeting.
