branch: master
commit 712f0e75820f78af18e6795a10f8a3bfe118175c
Author: Gregory W. Chicares <address@hidden>
Commit: Gregory W. Chicares <address@hidden>

    Demonstrate pilcrows-and-guillemets '.policy' syntax
    
    Pilcrows become <br>; guillemets become <b>...</b>; and empty <p></p>
    paragraphs are removed.
    
    This commit should be reverted after acceptance testing.
    
    Test case:
    
      File | New | Illustration
      Policy: "sample2ipp"
      OK
      File | Print to PDF
    
    On page 8 of 10:
    
     - The empty paragraphs added to the MST file are removed. They aren't
    empty strings surrounded by paragraph spacing--instead, they're not
    present at all. The PDF output is indistinguishable from one regenerated
    after manually editing the empty paragraphs out of the MST file.
    
     - The following new text appears as described in the notes below:
    
    [0] Guaranteed mortality column definition:
    [1] {InsCoName} guarantees that this {ContractName}'s mortality charges
    will never exceed the applicable CSO mortality tables.
    [2] And here's another line (coded with a single pilcrow).
    [3] And here's another paragraph (coded with a double pilcrow).
    
    0: All in boldface, on a line of its own. (1-3 are not bold.)
    1: Starts on a new line. This line would wrap if it were long enough.
    The two substituted variables are shown in single curly braces, because
    that's how they're defined for this product.
    2: Starts on a new line, as though the carriage-return arm on a manual
    typewriter had been operated once before this line.
    3: Starts on a new line following a blank: as for 2 above, but working
    the carriage-return arm twice before starting this line.
    
    Retesting with any other product should produce the same PDF with or
    without this commit.
