+Subject: [LaTeX2e] Hanging indents+multicols
+
+Hi.
+
+Does anyone know how to get hanging indents when using the LaTeX
+multicols package?
+
+I am trying
+
+\setlength{\hangindent}{1pc}
+\hangafter=1
+
+which gives what I want in plain text but, within a multicols
+environment, has no effect, no matter where I put it.
+
+Any ideas?
+
+Thanks
+
+Mike

+Subject: [MF] grayfont illustrations into TeX documents?
+
+Hi.
+
+I want to use MetaFONT to produce a greyed-out logo to use as a
+watermark: the sort of illustration which appears throught The
+METAFONTbook, particularly in Chapter 4: Pens, gives great cause for
+hope. Appendix H remarks that the illustrations in the book were
+produced with GFtoDVI.
+
+I can generate whatever hardcopy proofs I want using MF and GFtoDVI but
+I can't see how to produce a TeX document which includes grayed-out
+shapes. Fiddling around with scissors and glue seems too un-Knuthian to
+be plausible.
+
+If I understand how .dvi works, the gray font characters used by GFtoDVI
+have already been placed in a particular point on each page. This
+conflicts with the idea of a document independently placing an
+illustration on a page. I've obviously missed something.
+
+I would be pleased if someone could offer some guidance.
+
+Thanks
+
+Mike

+Subject: Partitioned matrix
+
+Hello, fellow LaTeX-users.
+
+Maybe one of you can help me on this one.
+I am trying to costruct a matrix (of considerable size) with between some
+columns or rows a dashed line through the whole matrix (or a so called
+'partitioned' matrix). I did manage to have a new row contain only dots, but
+that is not a great alternative; the rows are far too much seperated and I
+don't
+know how to get a column of dots, anyway. This is the LaTeX-input for that
+approach:
+
+- -------------------
+
+\documentclass[10pt]{article}
+\usepackage{a4wide}
+\usepackage{natbib}
+\usepackage{amsmath}
+
+\begin{document}
+
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+\Lambda_t(L_4) =
+\left[ \begin{array}{cccccccccccccc}

+Subject: Bibliography style
+
+Dear collegues,
+
+I enter TeXhax with the following problem: I am about to publish a paper on
+the International Journal of Radiation Biology. This is their bibliography
+entry style:
+
+Ager, D. D. and Dewey, W.C., 1990, Calibration of pulsed field gel
+electrophoresis...... {\em International Journal of Radiation Biology}, 58,
+249-259.
+
+What I can currently achieve using the named.bst (from the harvard family) is:
+
+[Ager and Dewey, 1990] D.D. Ager and W.C. Dewey. Title. {\em Journal}, 58,
+249-259.
+
+When the reference is called in the text, it nicely come as [Ager and Dewey
+1990] or, if the authors are more than two, as [Ager {\em et al.} 1990]
+which works fine. It also does 1990a and 1990b if Ager and Dewey wrote two
+papers that year.
+As I am not a great expert of bibliography styles, I ask you if there is
+any style which satisfies the requirements of IJRB above or what should I
+do to change named.bst in that direction.
+
+thanks in advance,
+
+Massimo
