hi there,

hi there,
i am puzzled about the following issue.
there's extra whitespace between the centered line
and startlines, while when using \crlf, there is not.
\startlines is an environment i guess (i come from latex)
and some environments sometimes add extra whitespace
in latex, if i recall correctly.
