I only use ptbr ones. These are the same that you made available in
db150.zip and the one that fixed the "section" xref problem. I can
send them if you don't have them already (I didn't send them before so
that we don't duplicate information).

The same level as examples is ok to me. I think that it isn't an
arbitrary position but one that is aesthetically better (and which
makes reading more pleasantly).
