Good morning Doug,

The info page for my version 1.21 has the following:

`\sN' Set the point size to N points.  N must be either 0 or in the  
range 4 to 39.

`\s(NN' Set the point size to NN points.  NN must be exactly two digits.

Your copy seems to work as documented.  I agree, it is weird.

Cheers,
Robert
