Wow a brain teaser ... hmm. One thought came to my mind ...

Background image (very properly sized for proper line height) in a
fo:block-container with background-repeat="repeat-y"?

First line outdent and white background <fo:inline> for first few words to
obscure the ">>>" of the first line?

If you ran a hand created sample first -- you could make the background
image from the Intermediate file so you know the exact line height. Would
only work for a fixed line-height.

Worth a try.

Subject: [xep-support] Indenting 2nd through last lines of a paragraph with
">>>" character

Hi everyone, do you know of the construct that I could use to show a
string like ">>>" in front of lines 2 through the end of a paragraph
of text?  I know that I can most likely use the XEP intermediate
format, but I would rather not if I don't have to.  Does anyone know
of a construct that will let me do this?

For instance, I would want a paragraph to look like:
This is some text that will wrap
 >>> and when it wraps I want to
 >>> have some characters in
 >>> front of each line after the
 >>> first.


Thanks!
Dan
