In \output@, setting logo outside of pagecontents makes it difficult to get all pages the same size; convert copyright/logo to insert, with side benefit of simpler output routine. Corrected: Version 2.1g, January 1997 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: ??? (bnb) Hard coded skips and fonts mean that author packages must redefine entire heading structures rather than simply substituting parameters; add named skips \preproclaim, \postproclaim, \remark, \postdemo, \predefinition, \postdefinition and named font \refsheadfont@. Corrected: Version 2.1g, January 1997 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: ???

Corrected: Version 2.1b %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 5-Aug-1992 (mjd) \rom should handle a preceding ~ as well as ordinary spaces. The penalty needs to be saved and reinserted after the italic correction.

Lucier) If \topmatter is omitted, some necessary font setup is not done. Perhaps it should be done by \document if need be. Corrected: Version 2.1b %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 11-Jun-1992 (mjd) Four skip assignments (\leftskip etc.) in \makefootnote@ should really use \z@skip instead of \z@. Corrected: Version 2.1b %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 24-FEB-1992 (mjd) (Change, not bug): Restore \nologo command (popular behest). Corrected: Version 2.1b %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty/doc Date reported: 24-JAN-1992 (M. Luskin) Comma is printed at the beginning of a \ref if \by is omitted. Fix: Insert \kern-1sp [ = \nofrills] in \endref@ after the key/number.

F. Bridgland) Problem with \moreref if the additional part of the ref is a different type than the first part of the ref. (Distinguishing three main types: book, journal paper, proceedings paper.) In the following example the journal name fails to print and the volume number is printed as 'vol. 34', instead of '{\bf 34}'. \ref \no 3 \by G.

Reference number (now 2320) should be 2338, and arrow should be slashed. Corrected: Version 2.1b, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 29-NOV-1991 (M. F. Bridgland) If numbered references are followed by unnumbered ones, the first unnumbered one is given a spurious number which consists of the value sent to \widestnumber to establish the label width. Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 8-OCT-1991 (A. Sudakov) \Monograph sets `\demofont@' and `\proclaimfont@' when the names actually used by \proclaim is \proclaimheadfont@ and \demo (in version 2.1 of amsppt.sty) calls \remark and hence should modify \remarkheadfont@. Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 5-SEP-1991 (A. Meyerowitz) amsppt.sty 2.1 might as well include \loadmsam and \loadmsbm before \UseAMSsymbols, so that it works even if used with an AMSTeX 2.0 format file. Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 28-AUG-1991 (mjd) In a \ref, when using \book, we might as well print out \eds and \pages or \page info (even though in AMS style this information is normally omitted). \eds will print anyway if \by is omitted, so the problem case is only when both \by and \eds are used in the same reference (surely it's a bit rare in citing a monograph to list both the author and an editor...) Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 23-AUG-1991 (mjd) Spacing above/below \block is imperfect. When used in vertical mode, the \noindent causes the short dislay skips to be used, which is then overcompensated for, on the top only, with the \vskip\abovedisplayskip. % \block is intended for typing long quotes in a block, indented % on both margins. If we're not in horizontal mode, we do a % \noindent to avoid getting an extra blank line before the % display. % \def\block{\RIfMIfI@\nondmatherr@\block\fi \else\ifvmode\vskip\abovedisplayskip\noindent\fi $$\def\endblock{\par\egroup$$}\fi \vbox\bgroup\advance\hsize-2\indenti\noindent} \def\endblock{\par\egroup} Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 22-AUG-1991 (MJD) The definition of \page in \toc@ needs to be localized, otherwise it will cancel the proper definition of \page for use in \ref, if a \toc and a \Refs occur in the same file. \def\toc@#1{\relaxnext@ \def\page##1% {\unskip\penalty0\null\hfil \rlap{\hbox to\wd\pagesbox@{\quad\hfil##1}}\hfilneg\penalty\@M}% Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 21-AUG-1991 (T. Shifrin) \Runinitem causes an `extra \endroster' error every time. Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsguide.tex Date reported: 21-AUG-1991 (L. Evens) The AMSTeX User's Guide contains an incorrect example regarding the TOC entry for \head. > It turns out that I was misled by the > AmSTeX 2.0 User's Guide which is not very clear about how to use > these macros. In particular, one of its examples (p. 8) won't work: > > \toc > ... > \head Continuous complex-valued functions\page{1}\endhead > ... > \endtoc > > I think this may work if there are two spaces between `\head' > and `Continuous', but it certainly doesn't work with one space which > is what appears to be in the User's Guide. Fortunately, I was > able to work out the correct syntax by examining the macro definition > in amsppt.sty. > The documentation should be changed to emphasize that > one should put {} followed by a space before any text without > a caption. Corrected: Version 2.1b, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt.sty Date reported: 17-MAY-1991 (mjd) An author in a \ref...\endref structure used \no for the reference number and also mistakenly used \no to attempt to produce an issue number. This resulted in the reference number having the issue number value. It should be fairly simple to add an \ifvoid test when putting reference data in a box to make sure the box is void; if not, give a warning to the user about the command being used twice inside one \ref (or \moreref or \transl) unit. Corrected: Version 2.1a, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 14-FEB-1991 (RMG) Slanted fonts should be changed to italic for consistency with AMS publications. Corrected: Version 2.1b, January 1992 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%% ==================================================================== Changes released August 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: amsppt1.tex Date reported: 3-JUL-1991 (D. Feldman et al.) Extra { after \message in the first definition of \enddocument causes an error message when the file is input. Corrected: Version 2.1b, August 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Changes made in Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSTEX.TEX Date reported: 7-FEB-1991 It seems that there was an error in copying the definition of \pmb@ from the TeXbook (p. 386)---there should not be a minus sign in "\kern-.05em". ---Made some additional adjustments to tune the `boldness' further (it's hard, though, to find a good compromise that produces distinctly bold subscript characters and not too-bold text-size characters). Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: INSTALLATION PROGRAM Date reported: 21-JAN-1991 (1) In the second prompt message "fonts" should be changed to "files". (2) Maybe a warning about not needing to press Return key. (3) Error during TFM file move step did not prevent the "AMSTeX successfully installed" message from appearing. (4) Omitting the initial backslash from the directory names given in response to the questions causes problems. (1) corrected Version 2.1, May 1991 (2) Many DOS applications do not require use of Return key; left as is. (3) Wording of final line changed for Version 2.1, May 1991 (4) Warning about necessity of backslash included in Version 2.1, May 1991. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 14-DEC-1990 User's guide should explain how to make an amsppt format file, not just an amstex format. For users with smaller, comparatively slower systems, this saves quite a bit of time every time they run AMSTeX. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSINST.TEX (now part of AMSGUIDE.TEX) Date reported: 11-DEC-1990 Font cmbsy10 used in installation guide at a large size (18pt) caused problems for some people who don't have it at that size. ---Problem has been resolved in the new amsguide.tex that incorporates the installation instructions, by eliminating the large title where the font occurred. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSTEX.TEX Date reported: 3-DEC-1990 \loadeusm, etc. should not do \newfam if the family is already loaded (should check to see if, e.g., \eusmfam is already defined). One user ran into trouble because \loadmsam, \loadmsbm and \loadeufm were done in the format file and therefore when amsppt.sty was loaded the three family assignments were duplicated. ---Changed the \load commands to undefine themselves after their first use. This also saves a little main memory. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 28-NOV-1990 (H. P. Boas) In definition of \thanks, \unskip was erroneously placed after the period instead of before. ---Fixed by removing the period and requiring it to be typed by the user. (\thanks could conceivably contain more than one sentence.) Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSTEX.TEX Date reported: 5-NOV-1990 In \rightarrowfill and similar things the minus sign should be smashed (as in plain.tex \relbar). Compare $$\buildrel\textstyle\sim\over\longrightarrow$$ % plain $$\overset\tsize\sim\to\longrightarrow$$ % AMSTeX $$A @>\tsize\sim>> B$$ % @>>> uses \rightarrowfill ---\rightarrowfill is defined in plain.tex, actually. AMSTEX.TEX also defines \rightarrowfill@. Smashing \rightarrowfill is nontrivial (perhaps that's why Knuth didn't do it). Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSTEX.TEX Date reported: 5-NOV-1990 \intertext should add penalties to discourage page breaks; as a minimum, there should be \penalty\predisplaypenalty added before the second \vskip: \def\intertext@{\def\intertext##1{\crcr\noalign{\vskip\belowdisplayskip \vbox{\normalbaselines\noindent##1}\penalty\predisplaypenalty \vskip\abovedisplayskip}}} Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 3-OCT-1990 The figure caption macros should treat \fc{Figure 1} \endfc the same as \fc{Figure 1}\endfc In other words the test to see if the second argument is empty should work even when the second argument is a blank space. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 1-OCT-1990 (Silvio Levy) \penaltyandskip@ macro needs to have \par at the beginning. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 1-SEP-1990 \widestnumber\item doesn't work as claimed in the user's guide. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 1-MAR-1990 Line breaking in \Refs section doesn't work properly after explicit hyphens, or after mathbins and mathrels, because of setting the text in \hbox's. ---Substantial changes in the internal workings of \ref and related macros. Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% File: AMSPPT.STY Date reported: 1-FEB-1990 Missing \endkeywords, \endsubjclass, and \endsubhead, among others, produce a puzzling error message ("Use of \next@ does not match its definition"). ---Involved substantial changes to \nofrills mechanism (internal implementation, not user interface). Corrected: Version 2.1, June 1991 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%% ==================================================================== Problems reported, not resolved %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %% File: amsppt.sty %% Date reported: 2000/12/04 %% %% Footnote in bibliography entry disappears, along with the element to %% which the footnote is attached; this is a consequence of extensive %% boxing in compiling a reference.
