Subject: doc/sod.sty: Overhaul `describe' environment.
X-Git-Url: https://git.distorted.org.uk/~mdw/sod/commitdiff_plain/7e94c5fe2eff01fe81fde1f54c53d3eefb254ba0

doc/sod.sty: Overhaul `describe' environment.

  * Split out the machinery which parses and sets the heading to make a
    new environment `describe*' which can have multiple headings.

  * Remove the `tabular' layer in the headings, by using `\rlap'
    instead.

  * Fix spacing around the header lines.

  * Insert penalties and drive the `\if@nobreak' and `\@afterheading'
    machinery correctly so that we mostly don't get bad page breaks.
