Bug in tbl's vertical spanning #20

Open mtbakerguy opened 2 years ago

mtbakerguy commented 2 years ago

The following document illustrates the problem (^ and t behave differently in an unexpected way; it looks like t sometimes skips the call into wide in t6.c):

`Vertical span with ^: .TS center, box; lB0 | cB0 s0 s0 l | cB0 | cB0 | cB0 ^ | cB0 | cB0 | cB0. Date Region A B C 2 2 4 .TE

Vertical span with t: .TS center, box; lB0 | cB0 s0 s0 l | cB0 | cB0 | cB0 t | cB0 | cB0 | cB0. Date Region A B C 2 2 4 .TE `

Any fix for this issue? Patches are welcome.

I mostly use -mtbl now and am not motivated enough to examine Plan 9 tbl's code.
