Hi Margaret,
The DBT code for this is [nr]. However, it too affects contractions in the
word either side unless a space is inserted before and after, which is not
desirable. I am not sure whether George or any DBT developers are on this
list - if you are and you would like steps to reproduce the "problem", try
translating
your[nr]yours
and
your [nr] yours
and observe the results.
I am not sure whether this is due to a bug in DBT or an oversight (or
presumably an oversight, anyway) in the UEB rules. I am on holiday at the
moment but I will check the rulebook when I get back to school if no one
else gets there first!

Subject: [ueb-ed] Inputting poetry line signs using Duxbury??
Greetings UEB Duxbury Users
I am trying to put a poetry line sign (dots 4-5-6) into a document to
represent poetry in a linear format.
How are you inserting the poetry line sign into your documents?
If I insert the code manually (using q~), this affects the contraction of
the word next to it (eg "friend" becomes friENd).
Anyone know of a way around this?
Appreciation in advance.
Margaret
