 Hi John,

 Working on a review.  Looks good and all tests passed.

 There was a time when TeX would choke on long input (more than 256
 characters?) so maybe that explains the use of "brk"?  But I think those
 days are behind us, so it is probably safe to drop it.

 Two suggestions:

 1.  In the docstring for {{{_latex_file_()}}} it is not real clear that
 the {{{sep}}} argument is for decoration rather than function.  Maybe
 additional explanation like:  "for example, {{{sep='\\hrule'}}}", would
 make it clearer that this is not a LaTeX requirement like "$$" (and it
 also needs an escaped backslash for any TeX commands).  (Which I now see
 is discussed in #3145.)

 2.  Are all the "empty" {{{\pagestyle}}} and {{{\thispagestyle}}} really
 needed?  There is one present in the header, but then two show up between
 each object's latex representation.  They don't seem to be hurting
 anything, but maybe now would be a good time to have them go away, perhaps
 along with a {{{\n}}} or two.

 Rob
