I don't understand this request for a 'snippet', are you saying it
already exists as a snippet and you want it in the NR or that you want
a new snippet created *as well*?

If it is the latter, and someone can give me a 'clear' explanation of
what this snippet shows (so I can write a concise texidoc entry) I can
arrange that, else if the snippet already exists tell me the name of
it and I can add it very easily.

Regards
