RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Messy FOP

[Jeff Beal <jeff dot beal at ansys dot com>]

Probably because that would also apply to inline monospace tags (like
literal).  Then you'd end up with <fo:inline/> elements where you're trying
to set alignment (a block attribute).  Again, something that could easily
confuse FOP.

Hi Jeff,

The subject title said it all: Messy FOP :-)

I also wrote the same workaround you did but found that setting
text-align="start" on the monospace.verbatim.properties also gave
strange effects (text over text).
