  abstract =     "\def \Benedick {BENEDICK} The work presented here
                 concerns a document processing model accounting for
                 aspects of an activity which is usually called
                 formatting. The core of the model, an experimental
                 formatting language called FFL, is the central topic.
                 FFL is a purely functional language in the style of FP
                 and the applicative part of APL\@. Sequences,
                 characters, and so-called boxes constitute the data
                 types and among the build-in primitives are functions
                 for aligning/spacing, breaking etc. Emphasis is put on
                 presenting the language and exemplifying its use. Also
                 considered are issues in type checking of formatting
                 function definitions and techniques for doing
                 incremental formatting with FFL formatting functions.
                 FFL is currently being implemented by the {\Benedick}
                 project group led by the author.",
