Adjustments to allow elements with subelements as parameters. This is
...
used to deal with the table headings and entries.
An additional flag in the element table is used to indicate elements
which have no "general" content, but which do have subelement
content. These must be flagged distinctly from empty elements.
Currently used for \lineii, \lineiii, and \lineiv.
