PMW Manual p.82:

  draw rule
    0 0 moveto
    0 linelength rlineto
    1 setlinewidth stroke
  enddraw

should actually be

  draw rule
    0 0 moveto
    linelength 0 rlineto
    1 setlinewidth stroke
  enddraw

Bit of an x-y mix-up.


PMW 5.10 has been ported back to RISC OS where it originated long ago, and we're all better off as a result!

Ah yes, you are quite correct. Thanks for noticing; the error has probably been there a long time. I will fix it in the next release, which is likely to appear around Christmas time. 5.10 is a little way back now, but I imagine it isn't a trivial port back to RISC OS. I'm impressed!
