+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
                                                                               
The   \skipbefore   command   is   always  used   in   conjunction   with   the
\blockquoteformat (\bqf)  command, and  will set the  amount of  vertical space
that  is to  be  skipped  before the  blockquote  begins.  The format  for  the
\skipbefore command is:                                                        
                                                                               
          \blockquoteformat{                                                   
          \skipbefore{xx}                                                      
          }                                                                    
                                                                               
Where "xx" is the amount of space desired,  expressed in number of lines or any
legal TeX measurement (pt, pc, in, etc.).  The amount of space indicated in the
\skipbefore  command  will  be  added to  the  current  paragraph  skip  before
beginning the first paragraph of the blockquote.
