word-wrap and itemize
I have a itemize list with: * Traffic from the internal LAN to the Internet is permitted (LAN_INET) and must be translated (LAN_INET_NAT). * Traffic from the internal LAN to the DMZ is permitted (LAN_DMZ). * Traffic from the Internet to servers in the DMZ is permitted (INET_DMZ). * Traffic from the Internet that's being redirected to spamd(8) is permitted (SPAMD). I am using koma scrbook. My page width is 6 inches. The first and second items of list are not formatted correctly. The (LAN_INET) and the (LAN_DMZ) are not wrapped to next line and go out into the right margin. There are no special fonts. To workaround this, I manually enter a Linebreak. How can I get this to justify word-wrap correctly? Also, maybe related, when I have a couple words of typewriter mixed in my regular content, then I also lose my correct justification. I thought I saw a posting on how to automatically fix this recently, but can't find now. Jeremy C. Reed BSD News, BSD tutorials, BSD links http://www.bsdnewsletter.com/

word-wrap and itemize
I have a itemize list with: * Traffic from the internal LAN to the Internet is permitted (LAN_INET) and must be translated (LAN_INET_NAT). * Traffic from the internal LAN to the DMZ is permitted (LAN_DMZ). * Traffic from the Internet to servers in the DMZ is permitted (INET_DMZ). * Traffic from the Internet that's being redirected to spamd(8) is permitted (SPAMD). I am using koma scrbook. My page width is 6 inches. The first and second items of list are not formatted correctly. The "(LAN_INET)" and the "(LAN_DMZ)" are not wrapped to next line and go out into the right margin. There are no special fonts. To workaround this, I manually enter a Linebreak.
