[19] How do I turn off double sided pagination in FWEB?

In FWEB, the command \identicalpageheadstrue [to be put in the so called limbo part of your FWEB file] makes all page headers identical, but it puts the page numbers in the upper LEFT corner and the section numbers in the upper RIGHT corner. As Don Petcher pointed out, to do it the other way around you can either change the macro `\normaloutput' in fwebmac.sty as indicated:

\def\normaloutput#1#2#3{\shipout\vbox{
  \ifodd\pageno\hoffset=\pageshift\fi

  \vbox to\fullpageheight

   {

    \iftitle\global\titlefalse

    \else\hbox to\pagewidth

        {\vbox to10pt{}%

        \ifidenticalpageheads#3\else  % THIS WAS ORIGINALLY #2 <---------

            \ifodd\pageno

                #3% Makes page numbers alternate left \& right.

            \else#2\fi

        \fi

        }%

    \fi

    \vfill#1

    }}% Parameter |#1| is the page itself

  \global\advance\pageno by1}

or you can include the above version in your TeX file as a redefinition of the macro.
