RE: [docbook-apps] dbfo keep-together for informal objects?

["David Cramer (Tech Pubs)" <dcramer@motive.com>]

Sorry about that. I'll blame my laptop (Compaq Evo N800w) keyboard's
poor design and mail client's (Outlook) keybindings on that premature
posting. Somehow while trying to do CTRL+V, I managed to hit a magic
keycombo that sent the message.

As I was saying... FWIW, I have very general keep-* pis that I use for
this purpose. The only trick is that in a few contexts they aren't
matched, but within paras they generally work fine: 

  <xsl:template match="*[processing-instruction('bjfo') =
'keep-together']">
	<fo:block keep-together.within-column="always">
	  <xsl:apply-imports/>
	</fo:block>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template	match="*[./processing-instruction('bjfo') =
'keep-with-next']">
	<fo:block keep-together.within-column="always"
keep-with-next.within-column="always">
	  <xsl:apply-imports/>
	</fo:block>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template	match="*[./processing-instruction('bjfo') =
'keep-with-previous']">
	<fo:block keep-together.within-column="always"
keep-with-previous.within-column="always">
	  <xsl:apply-imports/>
	</fo:block>
  </xsl:template>
