(I'm asking this for a matter of documentation correction if correct...) Do
you mean to say that the following paragraph from the faxcover manpage:

       If the comments string is longer than 35 characters, it is
       broken,  on  word  boundaries,  into  multiple  POSTSCRIPT
       strings commentsX where X is the line number;  e.g.   com­
       ments2  for  the second line of comments.  By default fax­
       cover will generate 20 commentsX  strings,  emitting  null
       string values for empty lines.  This number can be changed
       with the -m option; see below.

is incorrect in that first, the variable name is "CommentX" rather than
"commentsX" (capitalized and missing the s), and that the comments string
is *not* broken on word boundaries as explained, but rather as you have
described?

(Maybe I should just try this and see?)

Lee.
