Yes. But as there are a few other things that need to be passed along, better use a struct for all parameters. This way the interface stays optically leaner, you can forward-declare the struct and adding a new parameter later is simple. Have a look at math_metricsinfo.[Ch]. This even contains a textwidth field already. You can actually move that thing to a more prominent position (i.e. src/metricsinfo), drop all the 'Math' prefixes and be done. > Because getting this stuff working isn't quite as easy as you hope ?
