Bug#640542: wishlist: automatic pages with long text
Package: mgp
Version: 1.13a+upstream20090219-2
Severity: wishlist
Dear Sir,
I would be great if there were a switch to do automatic page when text is to long.
Please find the example below, then one could use it to display daily very important informations.
mgp is great and very useful
more customization like page auto would help a lot either in the code or ni the switch, like --auto-page
%page
%nodefault
%font "standard"
%back "black"
%center
hello
have a nice day.
