Re: Using shortVocalName for stanza numbers on every system

Thanks for the suggestion. I would do that if I knew where the system breaks were going to occur ahead of time. I put the line break in the example code just to simplify it and demonstrate the problem with very little code. *Benjamin Bloomfield* On Mon, Apr 20, 2020 at 10:23 AM Michael Gerdau
