+This document describes
+the text processing facilities
+available on the \*U\(dg
+.(f
+\(dg\*U is a trademark
+of AT&T Bell Laboratories
+.)f
+operating system
+via \*G and the
+\-me
+macro package.
+It is assumed
+that the reader
+already is generally familiar
+with the \*U operating system
+and a text editor
+such as
+.b ex .
+This is intended to be a casual introduction,
+and
+as such not all material is covered.
+In particular,
+many variations and additional features
+of the \-me macro package
+are not explained.
+For a complete discussion of this
+and other issues,
+see
+.ul
+The \-me Reference Manual
+and
+.ul
+The \*N/\*T Reference Manual.
+.pp
+\*G, a computer program
+that runs on the \*U operating system,
+reads an input file
+prepared by the user
+and outputs a formatted paper
+suitable for publication or framing.
+The input consists of
+.i text ,
+or words to be printed,
+and
+.i requests ,
+which give instructions
+to the \*G program
+telling how to format the printed copy.
+.pp
+Section 1
+describes the basics
+of text processing.
+Section 2
+describes the basic requests.
+Section 3
+introduces displays.
+Annotations,
+such as footnotes,
+are handled in
+section 4.
+The more complex requests
+which are not discussed in section 2
+are covered in section 5.
+Finally,
+section 6
+discusses things you will need
+to know
+if you want to typeset documents.
+If you are a novice,
+you probably won't want to read beyond section 4
+until you have tried some of the basic features out.
+.pp
+When you have your raw text ready,
+call the \*G formatter by typing
+as a request to the \*U shell:
+.(b
+groff \-me \-T\c
+.i "type files"
+.)b
+where
+.i type
+describes the type of
+output device you are using.
+A complete description of options
+to the \*G command can be found in
+.b groff (1).
+.pp
+The word
+.i argument
+is used in this manual
+to mean a word or number
+which appears on the same line
+as a request
+which modifies the meaning
+of that request.
+For example,
+the request
+.(b
+\&.sp
+.)b
+spaces one line,
+but
+.(b
+\&.sp 4
+.)b
+spaces four lines.
+The number
+.b 4
+is an
+.i argument
+to the
+.b .sp
+request
+which says to space four lines
+instead of one.
+Arguments are separated from the request
+and from each other
+by spaces.
+.sh 1 "Basics of Text Processing"
+.pp
+The primary function
+of \*G
+is to
+.i collect
+words from input lines,
+.i fill
+output lines with those words,
+.i justify
+the right hand margin by inserting extra spaces
+in the line,
+and output the result.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+Now is the time
+for all good men
+to come to the aid
+of their party.
+Four score and seven
+years ago,...
+.)b
+will be read,
+packed onto output lines,
+and justified
+to produce:
+.(b F
+Now is the time
+for all good men
+to come to the aid
+of their party.
+Four score and seven
+years ago,...
+.)b
+Sometimes you may want to start a new output line
+even though the line you are on
+is not yet full;
+for example,
+at the end of a paragraph.
+To do this
+you can cause a
+.i break ,
+which
+starts a new output line.
+Some requests
+cause a break automatically,
+as do blank input lines
+and input lines beginning with a space.
+.pp
+Not all input lines
+are text to be formatted.
+Some of the input lines
+are
+.i requests
+which describe
+how to format the text.
+Requests always have a period
+or an apostrophe
+(\c
+.q "\|\(aa\|" )
+as the first character
+of the input line.
+.pp
+The text formatter
+also does more complex things,
+such as automatically numbering pages,
+skipping over page folds,
+putting footnotes in the correct place,
+and so forth.
+.pp
+I can offer you a few hints
+for preparing text
+for input to \*G.
+First,
+keep the input lines short.
+Short input lines are easier to edit,
+and \*G will pack words onto longer lines
+for you anyhow.
+In keeping with this,
+it is helpful
+to begin a new line
+after every period,
+comma,
+or phrase,
+since common corrections
+are to add or delete sentences
+or phrases.
+Second,
+do not put spaces at the end of lines,
+since this can sometimes confuse the \*N
+processor.
+Third,
+do not hyphenate words at the end of lines
+(except words that should have hyphens in them,
+such as
+.q mother-in-law );
+\*G is smart enough to hyphenate words
+for you as needed,
+but is not smart enough
+to take hyphens out
+and join a word back together.
+Also,
+words such as
+.q mother-in-law
+should not be broken
+over a line,
+since then you will get a space
+where not wanted,
+such as
+.tr @-
+.nh
+.q "mother@\ in@law" .
+.br
+.tr @@
+.hy 14
+.sh 1 "Basic Requests"
+.sh 2 "Paragraphs"
+.pp
+Paragraphs are begun
+by using the
+.b .pp
+request.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.pp
+Now is the time for all good men
+to come to the aid of their party.
+Four score and seven years ago,...
+.)b
+produces a blank line
+followed by an indented first line.
+The result is:
+.(b F
+.ti +\n(piu
+Now is the time for all good men
+to come to the aid of their party.
+Four score and seven years ago,...
+.)b
+.pp
+Notice that the sentences
+of the paragraphs
+.i "must not"
+begin with a space,
+since blank lines
+and lines beginning with spaces
+cause a break.
+For example,
+if I had typed:
+.(b
+\&.pp
+Now is the time for all good men
+ to come to the aid of their party.
+Four score and seven years ago,...
+.)b
+The output would be:
+.(b F
+.ti +\n(piu
+Now is the time for all good men
+ to come to the aid of their party.
+Four score and seven years ago,...
+.)b
+A new line begins after the word
+.q men
+because the second line began with a space character.
+.pp
+There are many
+fancier
+types of paragraphs,
+which will be described later.
+.sh 2 "Headers and Footers"
+.pp
+Arbitrary headers and footers
+can be put
+at the top and bottom
+of every page.
+Two requests
+of the form
+.b .he \ \c
+.i title
+and
+.b .fo \ \c
+.i title
+define the titles to put at the head and the foot
+of every page,
+respectively.
+The titles are called
+.i three-part
+titles,
+that is,
+there is a left-justified part,
+a centered part,
+and a right-justified part.
+To separate these three parts
+the first character of
+.i title
+(whatever it may be)
+is used as a delimiter.
+Any character may be used,
+but
+backslash
+and double quote marks
+should be avoided.
+The percent sign
+is replaced by the current page number
+whenever found in the title.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.he \(aa\(aa%\(aa\(aa
+\&.fo \(aaJane Jones\(aa\(aaMy Book\(aa
+.)b
+results in the page number
+centered at the top
+of each page,
+.q "Jane Jones"
+in the lower left corner,
+and
+.q "My Book"
+in the lower right corner.
+.sh 2 "Double Spacing"
+.pp
+.ls 2
+\*G will double space output text automatically if you
+use the request
+.b ".ls\ 2" ,
+as is done in this section.
+You can revert to single spaced mode
+by typing
+.b ".ls\ 1" .
+.ls 1
+.sh 2 "Page Layout"
+.pp
+A number of requests allow
+you to change the way the printed copy looks,
+sometimes called the
+.i layout
+of the output page.
+Most of these requests adjust the placing
+of
+.q "white space"
+(blank lines or spaces).
+In these explanations,
+characters in italics
+should be replaced with values you wish to use;
+bold characters
+represent characters which should actually be typed.
+.pp
+The
+.b .bp
+request
+starts a new page.
+.pp
+The request
+.b .sp \ \c
+.i N
+leaves
+.i N
+lines of blank space.
+.i N
+can be omitted
+(meaning skip a single line)
+or can be of the form
+.i N \^\c
+.b i
+(for
+.i N
+inches)
+or
+.i N \^\c
+.b c
+(for
+.i N
+centimeters).
+For example, the input:
+.(b
+\&.sp 1.5i
+My thoughts on the subject
+\&.sp
+.)b
+leaves one and a half inches of space,
+followed by the line
+.q "My thoughts on the subject" ,
+followed by a single blank line.
+.pp
+The
+.b .in \ \c
+.i +N
+request
+changes the amount of white space
+on the left of the page
+(the
+.i indent ).
+The argument
+.i N
+can be of the form
+.b + \c
+.i N
+(meaning leave
+.i N
+spaces more than you are already leaving),
+.b \- \c
+.i N
+(meaning leave less than you do now),
+or just
+.i N
+(meaning leave exactly
+.i N
+spaces).
+.i N
+can be of the form
+.i N \^\c
+.b i
+or
+.i N \^\c
+.b c
+also.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+initial text
+\&.in 5
+some text
+\&.in +1i
+more text
+\&.in \-2c
+final text
+.)b
+produces
+.q "some text"
+indented exactly five spaces
+from the left margin,
+.q "more text"
+indented five spaces
+plus one inch
+from the left margin
+(fifteen spaces
+on a pica typewriter),
+and
+.q "final text"
+indented five spaces
+plus one inch
+minus two centimeters
+from the margin.
+That is,
+the output is:
+.(b
+initial text
+.in +5
+some text
+.in +1i
+more text
+.in -2c
+final text
+.)b
+.pp
+The
+.b .ti \ \c
+.i +N
+(temporary indent)
+request is used like
+.b .in \ \c
+.i +N
+when the indent
+should apply to one line only,
+after which it should revert
+to the previous indent.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.in 1i
+\&.ti 0
+Ware, James R. The Best of Confucius,
+Halcyon House, 1950.
+An excellent book containing translations of
+most of Confucius\(aa most delightful sayings.
+A definite must for anyone interested in the early foundations
+of Chinese philosophy.

+Ware, James R. The Best of Confucius,
+Halcyon House, 1950.
+An excellent book containing translations of
+most of Confucius' most delightful sayings.
+A definite must for anyone interested in the early foundations
+of Chinese philosophy.
+.pp
+Text lines can be centered
+by using the
+.b .ce
+request.
+The line after the
+.b .ce
+is centered
+(horizontally)
+on the page.
+To center more than one line,
+use
+.b .ce \ \c
+.i N
+(where
+.i N
+is the number of lines to center),
+followed by the
+.i N
+lines.
+If you want to center many lines
+but don't want to count them,
+type:
+.(b
+\&.ce 1000
+lines to center
+\&.ce 0
+.)b
+The
+.b ".ce\ 0"
+request tells \*G to center zero more lines,
+in other words,
+stop centering.
+.pp
+All of these requests
+cause a break;
+that is,
+they always start
+a new line.
+If you want to start a new line
+without performing any other action,
+use
+.b .br .
+.sh 1 "Displays"
+.pp
+Displays are sections of text
+to be set off
+from the body of the paper.
+Major quotes,
+tables,
+and figures
+are types of displays,
+as are all the examples
+used in this document.
+All displays
+except centered blocks
+are output
+single spaced.
+.sh 2 "Major Quotes"
+.pp
+Major quotes
+are quotes which are several lines long,
+and hence are set in from the rest
+of the text
+without quote marks
+around them.
+These can be generated
+using the commands
+.b .(q
+and
+.b .)q
+to surround the quote.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+As Weizenbaum points out:
+\&.(q
+It is said that to explain is to explain away.
+This maxim is nowhere so well fulfilled
+as in the areas of computer programming,...
+\&.)q
+.)b
+generates as output:
+.lp
+As Weizenbaum points out:
+.(q
+It is said that to explain is to explain away.
+This maxim is nowhere so well fulfilled
+as in the areas of computer programming,...
+.)q
+.sh 2 "Lists"
+.pp
+A
+.i list
+is an indented,
+single spaced,
+unfilled display.
+Lists should be used
+when the material to be printed
+should not be filled and justified
+like normal text,
+such as columns of figures
+or the examples used in this paper.
+Lists are surrounded
+by the requests
+.b .(l
+and
+.b .)l .
+For example,
+type:
+.(b
+Alternatives to avoid deadlock are:
+\&.(l
+Lock in a specified order
+Detect deadlock and back out one process
+Lock all resources needed before proceeding
+\&.)l
+.)b
+will produce:
+.br
+Alternatives to avoid deadlock are:
+.(l
+Lock in a specified order
+Detect deadlock and back out one process
+Lock all resources needed before proceeding
+.)l
+.sh 2 "Keeps"
+.pp
+A
+.i keep
+is a display of lines
+which are kept on a single page
+if possible.
+An example of where you would use a keep
+might be a diagram.
+Keeps differ from lists
+in that lists may be broken
+over a page boundary
+whereas keeps will not.
+.pp
+Blocks are the basic kind of keep.
+They begin with the request
+.b .(b
+and end with the request
+.b .)b .
+If there is not room on the current page
+for everything in the block,
+a new page is begun.
+This has the unpleasant effect
+of leaving blank space
+at the bottom of the page.
+When this is not appropriate,
+you can use the alternative,
+called
+.i "floating keeps" .
+.pp
+.i "Floating keeps"
+move relative to the text.
+Hence,
+they are good for things
+which will be referred to
+by name,
+such as
+.q "See figure 3" .
+A floating keep will appear
+at the bottom of the current page
+if it will fit;
+otherwise,
+it will appear at the top
+of the next page.
+Floating keeps begin with the line
+.b .(z
+and end with the line
+.b .)z .
+For an example of a floating keep,
+see figure 1.
+.(z
+.in 1i
+.xl -1i
+.hl
+\&.(z

+Text of keep to be floated.

+\&.ce
+Figure 1. Example of a Floating Keep.
+\&.hl
+\&.)z
+.sp
+.ce
+Figure 1. Example of a Floating Keep.
+.hl
+.)z
+The
+.b .hl
+request is used
+to draw a horizontal line
+so that the figure
+stands out from the text.
+.sh 2 "Fancier Displays"
+.pp
+Keeps and lists are normally collected in
+.i nofill
+mode,
+so that they are good for tables and such.
+If you want a display
+in fill mode
+(for text),
+type
+.b ".(l\ F"
+(Throughout this section,
+comments applied to
+.b .(l
+also apply to
+.b .(b
+and
+.b .(z ).
+This kind of display
+will be indented from both margins.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.(l F
+And now boys and girls,
+a newer, bigger, better toy than ever before!
+Be the first on your block to have your own computer!
+Yes kids, you too can have one of these modern
+data processing devices.
+You too can produce beautifully formatted papers
+without even batting an eye!
+\&.)l
+.)b
+will be output as:
+.(b F
+And now boys and girls,
+a newer, bigger, better toy than ever before!
+Be the first on your block to have your own computer!
+Yes kids, you too can have one of these modern
+data processing devices.
+You too can produce beautifully formatted papers
+without even batting an eye!
+.)b
+.pp
+Lists and blocks are also normally indented
+(floating keeps are normally left justified).
+To get a left-justified list,
+type
+.b ".(l\ L" .
+To get a list centered
+line-for-line,
+type
+.b ".(l C" .
+For example,
+to get a filled,
+left justified list, enter:
+.(b
+\&.(l L F
+text of block
+\&.)l
+.)b
+The input:
+.(b
+\&.(l
+first line of unfilled display
+more lines
+\&.)l
+.)b
+produces the indented text:
+.(b
+first line of unfilled display
+more lines
+.)b
+Typing the character
+.b L
+after the
+.b .(l
+request produces the left justified result:
+.(b L
+first line of unfilled display
+more lines
+.)b
+Using
+.b C
+instead of
+.b L
+produces the line-at-a-time centered output:
+.(b C
+first line of unfilled display
+more lines
+.)b
+.pp
+Sometimes it may be
+that you want to center several lines
+as a group,
+rather than centering them
+one line at a time.
+To do this
+use centered blocks,
+which are surrounded by the requests
+.b .(c
+and
+.b .)c .
+All the lines are centered as a unit,
+such that the longest line is centered
+and the rest are
+lined up around that line.
+Notice that lines
+do not move
+relative to each other
+using centered blocks,
+whereas they do
+using the
+.b C
+argument to keeps.
+.pp
+Centered blocks are
+.i not
+keeps,
+and may be used
+in conjunction
+with keeps.
+For example,
+to center a group of lines
+as a unit
+and keep them
+on one page,
+use:
+.(b
+\&.(b L
+\&.(c
+first line of unfilled display
+more lines
+\&.)c
+\&.)b
+.)b
+to produce:
+.(b L
+.(c
+first line of unfilled display
+more lines
+.)c
+.)b
+If the block requests
+(\c
+.b .(b
+and
+.b .)b )
+had been omitted
+the result would have been the same,
+but with no guarantee
+that the lines of the centered block
+would have all been on one page.
+Note the use of the
+.b L
+argument to
+.b .(b ;
+this causes the centered block
+to center within the entire line
+rather than within the line
+minus the indent.
+Also,
+the center requests
+must
+be nested
+.i inside
+the keep requests.
+.sh 1 "Annotations"
+.pp
+There are a number of requests
+to save text
+for later printing.
+.i Footnotes
+are printed at the bottom of the current page.
+.i "Delayed text"
+is intended to be a variant form
+of footnote;
+the text is printed only
+when explicitly called for,
+such as at the end of each chapter.
+.i Indexes
+are a type of delayed text
+having a tag
+(usually the page number)
+attached to each entry
+after a row of dots.
+Indexes are also saved
+until called for explicitly.
+.sh 2 "Footnotes"
+.pp
+Footnotes begin with the request
+.b .(f
+and end with the request
+.b .)f .
+The current footnote number is maintained
+automatically,
+and can be used by typing \e**,
+to produce a footnote number\**.
+.(f
+\**Like this.
+.)f
+The number is automatically incremented
+after every footnote.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.(q
+A man who is not upright
+and at the same time is presumptuous;
+one who is not diligent and at the same time is ignorant;
+one who is untruthful and at the same time is incompetent;

+Page 77.

+It is important
+that the footnote
+appears
+.i inside
+the quote,
+so that you can be sure
+that the footnote
+will appear
+on the same page
+as the quote.
+.sh 2 "Delayed Text"
+.pp
+Delayed text
+is very similar to a footnote
+except that it is printed
+when called for explicitly.
+This allows a list of
+references to
+appear
+(for example)
+at the end of each chapter,
+as is the convention in some disciplines.
+Use
+.b \e*#
+on delayed text
+instead of
+.b \e**
+as on footnotes.
+.pp
+If you are using delayed text
+as your standard reference mechanism,
+you can still use footnotes,
+except that you may want to reference them
+with special characters*
+.(f
+*Such as an asterisk.
+.)f
+rather than numbers.
+.sh 2 "Indexes"
+.pp
+An
+.q index
+(actually more like a table of contents,
+since the entries are not sorted alphabetically)
+resembles delayed text,
+in that it is saved until called for.
+However,
+each entry has the page number
+(or some other tag)
+appended to the last line
+of the index entry
+after a row of dots.
+.pp
+Index entries begin with the request
+.b .(x
+and end with
+.b .)x .
+The
+.b .)x
+request may have a argument,
+which is the value to print
+as the
+.q "page number" .
+It defaults to the current page number.
+If the page number given is an underscore
+(\c
+.q _ )
+no page number
+or line of dots
+is printed at all.
+To get the line of dots
+without a page number,
+type
+.b ".)x """"" ,
+which specifies an explicitly null page number.
+.pp
+The
+.b .xp
+request prints the index.
+.pp
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.(x
+Sealing wax
+\&.)x
+\&.(x
+Cabbages and kings
+\&.)x _
+\&.(x
+Why the sea is boiling hot
+\&.)x 2.5a
+\&.(x
+Whether pigs have wings
+\&.)x ""
+\&.(x
+This is a terribly long index entry, such as might be used
+for a list of illustrations, tables, or figures; I expect it to
+take at least two lines.
+\&.)x
+\&.xp
+.)b
+generates:
+.(x
+Sealing wax
+.)x
+.(x
+Cabbages and kings
+.)x _
+.(x
+Why the sea is boiling hot
+.)x 2.5a
+.(x
+Whether pigs have wings
+.)x ""
+.(x
+This is a terribly long index entry, such as might be used
+for a list of illustrations, tables, or figures; I expect it to
+take at least two lines.
+.)x
+.xp
+.pp
+The
+.b .(x
+request may have a single character
+argument,
+specifying the
+.q name
+of the index;
+the normal index is
+.b x .
+Thus,
+several
+.q indices
+may be maintained simultaneously
+(such as a list of tables, table of contents, etc.).
+.pp
+Notice that the index must be printed
+at the
+.i end
+of the paper,
+rather than at the beginning
+where it will probably appear
+(as a table of contents);
+the pages may have to be physically rearranged
+after printing.
+.sh 1 "Fancier Features"
+.pp
+A large number of fancier requests
+exist,
+notably requests to provide other sorts of paragraphs,
+numbered sections of the form
+.b 1.2.3
+(such as used in this document),
+and multicolumn output.
+.sh 2 "More Paragraphs"
+.pp
+Paragraphs generally start with
+a blank line
+and with the first line
+indented.
+It is possible to get
+left-justified block-style paragraphs
+by using
+.b .lp
+instead of
+.b .pp ,
+as demonstrated by the next paragraph.
+.lp
+Sometimes you want to use paragraphs
+that have the
+.i body
+indented,
+and the first line
+exdented
+(opposite of indented)
+with a label.
+This can be done with the
+.b .ip
+request.
+A word specified on the same line as
+.b .ip
+is printed in the margin,
+and the body is lined up
+at a prespecified position
+(normally five spaces).
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.ip one
+This is the first paragraph.
+Notice how the first line
+of the resulting paragraph lines up
+with the other lines in the paragraph.
+\&.ip two
+And here we are at the second paragraph already.
+You may notice that the argument to \c
+.b .ip
+appears
+in the margin.
+\&.lp
+We can continue text...
+.)b
+produces as output:
+.ip one
+This is the first paragraph.
+Notice how the first line of the resulting paragraph lines up
+with the other lines in the paragraph.
+.ip two
+And here we are at the second paragraph already.
+You may notice that the argument to
+.b .ip
+appears
+in the margin.
+.lp
+We can continue text without starting a new indented
+paragraph
+by using the
+.b .lp
+request.
+.pp
+If you have spaces in the label of a
+.b .ip
+request,
+you must use an
+.q "unpaddable space"
+instead of a regular space.
+This is typed as a backslash character
+(\c
+.q \e )
+followed by a space.
+For example,
+to print the label
+.q "Part 1" ,
+enter:
+.(b
+\&.ip "Part\e 1"
+.)b
+.pp
+If a label of an indented paragraph
+(that is, the argument to
+.b .ip )
+is longer than the space allocated for the label,
+.b .ip
+will begin a new line after the label.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.ip longlabel
+This paragraph had a long label.
+The first character of text on the first line
+will not line up with the text on second and subsequent lines,
+although they will line up with each other.
+.)b
+will produce:
+.ip longlabel
+This paragraph had a long label.
+The first character of text on the first line
+will not line up with the text on second and subsequent lines,
+although they will line up with each other.
+.pp
+It is possible to change the size of the label
+by using a second argument
+which is the size of the label.
+For example,
+the above example could be done correctly
+by saying:
+.(b
+\&.ip longlabel 10
+.)b
+which will make the paragraph indent
+10 spaces for this paragraph only.
+If you have many paragraphs to indent
+all the same amount,
+use the
+.i "number register"
+.b ii .
+For example, to leave one inch of space
+for the label,
+type:
+.(b
+\&.nr ii 1i
+.)b
+somewhere before the first call to
+.b .ip .
+Refer to the reference manual
+for more information.
+.pp
+If
+.b .ip
+is used
+with no argument at all
+no hanging tag will be printed.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.ip [a]
+This is the first paragraph of the example.
+We have seen this sort of example before.
+\&.ip
+This paragraph is lined up with the previous paragraph,
+but it has no tag in the margin.
+.)b
+produces as output:
+.ip [a]
+This is the first paragraph of the example.
+We have seen this sort of example before.
+.ip
+This paragraph is lined up with the previous paragraph,
+but it has no tag in the margin.
+.pp
+A special case of
+.b .ip
+is
+.b .np ,
+which automatically
+numbers paragraphs sequentially from 1.
+The numbering is reset at the next
+.b .pp ,
+.b .lp ,
+or
+.b .sh
+(to be described in the next section)
+request.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.np
+This is the first point.
+\&.np
+This is the second point.
+Points are just regular paragraphs
+which are given sequence numbers automatically
+by the .np request.
+\&.pp
+This paragraph will reset numbering by .np.
+\&.np
+For example,
+we have reverted to numbering from one now.
+.)b
+generates:
+.np
+This is the first point.
+.np
+This is the second point.
+Points are just regular paragraphs
+which are given sequence numbers automatically
+by the .np request.
+.pp
+This paragraph will reset numbering by .np.
+.np
+For example,
+we have reverted to numbering from one now.
+.pp
+The
+.b .bu
+request gives lists of this sort that are identified with
+bullets rather than numbers.
+The paragraphs are also crunched together.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.bu
+\&One egg yolk
+\&.bu
+\&One tablespoon cream or top milk
+\&.bu
+\&Salt, cayenne, and lemon juice to taste
+\&.bu

+.sh 2 "Section Headings"
+.pp
+Section numbers
+(such as the ones used in this document)
+can be automatically generated
+using the
+.b .sh
+request.
+You must tell
+.b .sh
+the
+.i depth
+of the section number
+and a section title.
+The depth
+specifies how many numbers
+are to appear
+(separated by decimal points)
+in the section number.
+For example,
+the section number
+.b 4.2.5
+has a depth of three.
+.pp
+Section numbers
+are incremented
+in a fairly intuitive fashion.
+If you add a number
+(increase the depth),
+the new number starts out
+at one.
+If you subtract section numbers
+(or keep the same number)
+the final number is incremented.
+For example,
+the input:
+.(b
+\&.sh 1 "The Preprocessor"
+\&.sh 2 "Basic Concepts"
+\&.sh 2 "Control Inputs"
+\&.sh 3
+\&.sh 3
+\&.sh 1 "Code Generation"
+\&.sh 3
+.)b
+produces as output the result:
+.(b
+.b
+1. The Preprocessor
+1.1. Basic Concepts
+1.2. Control Inputs
+1.2.1.
+1.2.2.
+2. Code Generation
+2.1.1.
+.)b
+.pp
+You can specify the section number to begin
+by placing the section number after the section title,
+using spaces instead of dots.
+For example,
+the request:
+.(b
+\&.sh 3 "Another section" 7 3 4
+.)b
+will begin the section numbered
+.b 7.3.4 ;
+all subsequent
+.b .sh
+requests will number relative to this number.
+.pp
+There are more complex features
+which will cause each section to be indented
+proportionally to the depth of the section.
+For example, if you enter:
+.(b
+\&.nr si \c
+.i N
+.)b
+each section will be indented by an amount
+.i N .
+.i N
+must have a scaling factor attached,
+that is, it must be of the form
+.i Nx ,
+where
+.i x
+is a character telling what units
+.i N
+is in.
+Common values for
+.i x
+are
+.b i
+for inches,
+.b c
+for centimeters,
+and
+.b n
+for
+.i ens
+(the width of a single character).
+For example,
+to indent each section
+one-half inch,
+type:
+.(b
+\&.nr si 0.5i
+.)b
+After this,
+sections will be indented by
+one-half inch
+per level of depth in the section number.
+For example,
+this document was produced
+using the request
+.(b
+\&.nr si 3n
+.)b
+at the beginning of the input file,
+giving three spaces of indent
+per section depth.
+.pp
+Section headers without automatically generated numbers
+can be done using:
+.(b
+\&.uh "Title"
+.)b
+which will do a section heading,
+but will put no number on the section.
+.sh 2 "Parts of the Basic Paper"
+.pp
+There are some requests
+which assist in setting up
+papers.
+The
+.b .tp
+request
+initializes for a title page.
+There are no headers or footers
+on a title page,
+and unlike other pages
+you can space down
+and leave blank space
+at the top.
+For example,
+a typical title page might appear as:
+.(b
+\&.tp
+\&.sp 2i
+\&.(l C
+THE GROWTH OF TOENAILS
+IN UPPER PRIMATES
+\&.sp
+by
+\&.sp
+Frank N. Furter
+\&.)l
+\&.bp
+.)b
+.pp
+The
+.b .+c \ \c
+.i T
+request can be used
+to start chapters.
+Each chapter is automatically numbered
+from one,
+and a heading is printed at the top of each chapter
+with the chapter number
+and the chapter name
+.i T .
+For example,
+to begin a chapter called
+.q Conclusions ,
+use the request:
+.(b
+\&.+c "CONCLUSIONS"
+.)b
+which will produce,
+on a new page,
+the lines
+.(b C
+CHAPTER 5
+CONCLUSIONS
+.)b
+with appropriate spacing for a thesis.
+Also, the header is moved to the foot of the page
+on the first page of a chapter.
+Although the
+.b .+c
+request was not designed to work only with the
+.b .th
+request,
+it is tuned for the format acceptable
+for a PhD thesis
+at Berkeley.
+.pp
+If the
+title parameter
+.i T
+is omitted from the
+.b .+c
+request,
+the result is a chapter with no heading.
+This can also be used at the beginning
+of a paper;
+for example,
+.b .+c
+was used to generate page one
+of this document.
+.pp
+Although
+papers traditionally have the abstract,
+table of contents,
+and so forth at the front of the paper,
+it is more convenient to format
+and print them last
+when using \*G.
+This is so that index entries
+can be collected and then printed
+for the table of contents
+(or whatever).
+At the end of the paper,
+issue the
+.b ".++ P"
+request,
+which begins the preliminary part
+of the paper.
+After issuing this request,
+the
+.b .+c
+request will begin a preliminary section
+of the paper.
+Most notably,
+this prints the page number
+restarted from one
+in lower case Roman numbers.
+.b .+c
+may be used repeatedly
+to begin different parts of the
+front material
+for example,
+the abstract,
+the table of contents,
+acknowledgments,
+list of illustrations,
+etc.
+The request
+.b ".++ B"
+may also be used
+to begin the bibliographic section
+at the end of the paper.
+For example,
+the paper might appear
+as outlined in figure 2.

+.pp
+Two special \*U programs exist

+.b Eqn
+sets equations.
+.b Tbl
+arranges to print
+extremely pretty tables
+in a variety of formats.
+This document will only describe
+the embellishments
+to the standard features;
+consult the reference manuals
+for those processors
+for a description of their use.
+.pp
+The
+.b eqn
+program is described fully
+in the document
+.ul
+Typesetting Mathematics \- User's Guide
+by Brian W. Kernighan
+and Lorinda L. Cherry.
+Equations are centered,
+and are kept on one page.
+They are introduced by the
+.b .EQ
+request and terminated by the
+.b .EN
+request.
+.pp
+The
+.b .EQ
+request may take an
+equation number as an
+optional argument,
+which is printed vertically centered
+on the right hand side
+of the equation.
+If the equation becomes too long
+it should be split
+between two lines.
+To do this, type:
+.(b
+\&.EQ (eq 34)
+text of equation 34
+\&.EN C
+\&.EQ
+continuation of equation 34
+\&.EN
+.)b
+The
+.b C
+on the
+.b .EN
+request
+specifies that the equation
+will be continued.
+.pp
+The
+.b tbl
+program produces tables.
+It is fully described
+(including numerous examples)
+in the document
+.ul
+Tbl \- A Program to Format Tables
+by M. E. Lesk.
+Tables begin with the
+.b .TS
+request
+and end with the
+.b .TE
+request.
+Tables are normally kept on a single page.
+If you have a table which is too big
+to fit on a single page,
+so that you know it will extend
+to several pages,
+begin the table with the request
+.b ".TS\ H"
+and put the request
+.b .TH
+after the part of the table
+which you want
+duplicated at the top of every page
+that the table is printed on.
+For example, a table definition
+for a long table might look like:
+.ds TA \|\h'.4n'\v'-.2n'\s-4\zT\s0\v'.2n'\h'-.4n'\(ci\|
+.if n .ds TA \ \o'-T'\ \"

+.pp
+.sh 2 "Two Column Output"
+.pp
+You can get two column output
+automatically
+by using the request
+.b .2c .
+This causes everything after it
+to be output in two-column form.
+The request
+.b .bc
+will start a new column;
+it differs from
+.b .bp
+in that
+.b .bp
+may leave a totally blank column
+when it starts a new page.
+To revert to single column output,
+use
+.b .1c .
+.sh 2 "Defining Macros"
+.pp
+A
+.i macro
+is a collection of requests and text
+which may be used
+by stating a simple request.
+Macros begin with the line
+.b ".de" \ \c
+.i xx
+(where
+.i xx
+is the name of the macro to be defined)
+and end with the line consisting of two dots.
+After defining the macro,
+stating the line
+.b . \c
+.i xx
+is the same as stating all the other lines.
+For example,
+to define a macro
+that spaces 3 lines
+and then centers the next input line,
+enter:
+.(b
+\&.de SS
+\&.sp 3
+\&.ce
+\&..
+.)b
+and use it by typing:
+.(b
+\&.SS
+\&Title Line
+(beginning of text)
+.)b
+.pp
+Macro names may be one or two characters.
+In order to avoid conflicts
+with names in \-me,
+always use upper case letters as names.
+The only names to avoid are
+.b TS ,
+.b TH ,
+.b TE ,
+.b EQ ,
+and
+.b EN .
+.sh 2 "Annotations Inside Keeps"
+.pp
+Sometimes you may want to put
+a footnote
+or index entry inside a keep.
+For example,
+if you want to maintain a
+.q "list of figures"
+you will want to do something like:
+.(b
+\&.(z
+\&.(c
+text of figure
+\&.)c
+\&.ce
+Figure 5.
+\&.(x f
+Figure 5
+\&.)x
+\&.)z
+.)b
+which you may hope
+will give you a figure
+with a label
+and an entry in the index
+.b f
+(presumably a list of figures index).
+Unfortunately,
+the
+index entry
+is read and interpreted
+when the keep is read,
+not when it is printed,
+so the page number in the index is likely to be wrong.
+The solution is to use the magic string
+.b \e!
+at the beginning of all the lines dealing with the index.
+In other words,
+you should use:
+.(b
+\&.(z
+\&.(c
+Text of figure
+\&.)c
+\&.ce
+Figure 5.
+\e!.(x f
+\e!Figure 5
+\e!.)x
+\&.)z
+.)b
+which will defer the processing of the index
+until the figure is output.
+This will guarantee
+that the page number in the index
+is correct.
+The same comments apply
+to
+blocks
+(with
+.b .(b
+and
+.b .)b )
+as well.
+.sh 1 "\*T and the Photosetter"
+.pp
+With a little care,
+you can prepare
+documents that
+will print nicely
+on either a regular terminal
+or when phototypeset
+using the \*T formatting program.
+.sh 2 "Fonts"
+.pp
+A
+.i font
+is a style of type.
+There are three fonts
+that are available simultaneously,
+Times Roman,
+Times Italic,
+and Times Bold,
+plus the special math font.
+The normal font is Roman.
+.pp
+There are ways of switching between fonts.
+The requests
+.b .r ,
+.b .i ,
+.b .b ,
+and
+.b .bi
+switch to Roman,
+italic,
+bold,
+and bold-italic fonts respectively.
+You can set a single word
+in some font
+by typing (for example):
+.(b
+\&.i word
+.)b
+which will set
+.i word
+in italics
+but does not affect the surrounding text.
+.pp
+Notice that if you are setting more than one word
+in whatever font,
+you must surround that word with double quote marks
+(`\|"\|')
+so that it will appear to the \*G processor as a single word.
+The quote marks will not appear in the formatted text.
+If you do want a quote mark to appear,
+you should quote the entire string
+(even if a single word),
+and use
+.i two
+quote marks where you want one to appear.
+For example,
+if you want to produce the text:
+.(b
+.i """Master Control\|"""
+.)b
+in italics, you must type:
+.(b
+\&.i """Master Control\e|"""
+.)b
+The
+.b \e|
+produces a very narrow space
+so that the
+.q l
+does not overlap the quote sign in \*G,
+like this:
+.(b
+.i """Master Control"""
+.)b
+.pp
+There are also some
+.q pseudo-fonts
+available.
+The input:
+.(b
+\&.(b
+\&.u underlined
+\&.bx "words in a box"
+\&.)b
+.)b
+generates
+.(b
+.u underlined
+.bx "words in a box"
+.)b
+Notice that pseudo font requests
+set only the single parameter in the pseudo font;
+ordinary font requests will begin setting all text
+in the special font
+if you do not provide a parameter.
+No more than one word
+should appear
+with these three font requests
+in the middle of lines.
+This is because
+of the way \*G justifies text.
+For example,
+if you were to issue the requests:
+.(b
+\&.u "some bold italics"
+and
+\&.bx "words in a box"
+.)b
+in the middle of a line
+\*G would produce
+.u "some bold italics"
+and
+.bx "words in a box" ,\p
+which I think you will agree does not look good.
+.pp
+The second parameter
+of all font requests
+is set in the original font.
+For example,
+the font request:
+.(b
+\&.b bold face
+.)b
+generates
+.q bold
+in bold font,
+but sets
+.q face
+in the font of the surrounding text,
+resulting in:
+.(b
+.b bold face.
+.)b
+To set the two words
+.b bold
+and
+.b face
+both in
+.b "bold face" ,
+type:
+.(b
+\&.b "bold face"
+.)b
+.pp
+You can mix fonts in a word by using the
+special sequence
+.b \ec
+at the end of a line
+to indicate
+.q "continue text processing" ;
+this allows input lines
+to be joined together
+without a space between them.
+For example, the input:
+.(b
+\&.u under \ec
+\&.i italics
+.)b
+generates
+.u under \c
+.i italics ,
+but if we had typed:
+.(b
+\&.u under
+\&.i italics
+.)b
+the result would have been
+.u under
+.i italics
+as two words.
+.sh 2 "Point Sizes"
+.pp
+The phototypesetter
+supports different sizes of type,
+measured in points.
+The default point size
+is 10 points
+for most text,
+8 points for footnotes.
+To change the pointsize,
+type:
+.(b
+\&.sz \c
+.i +N
+.)b
+where
+.i N
+is the size wanted in points.
+The
+.i "vertical spacing"
+(distance between the bottom of most letters
+(the
+.i baseline )
+between adjacent lines)
+is set to be proportional
+to the type size.
+.pp
+These pointsize changes are
+.i temporary !!!
+For example,
+to reset the pointsize of basic text to twelve point, use:
+.(b
+\&.nr pp 12
+\&.nr sp 12
+\&.nr tp 12
+.)b
+to reset the default pointsize of
+paragraphs,
+section headers,
+and titles respectively.
+If you only want to set the names of sections in a larger pointsize,
+use:
+.(b
+\&.nr sp 11
+.)b
+alone \*- this sets section titles
+(e.g.,
+.b "Point Sizes"
+above)
+in a larger font than the default.
+.pp
+A single word or phrase can be set in a smaller pointsize
+than the surrounding text
+using the
+.b .sm
+request.
+This is especially convenient for words that are all capitals,
+due to the optical illusion that makes them look even larger
+than they actually are.
+For example:
+.(b
+\&.sm UNIX
+.)b
+prints as
+.sm UNIX
+rather than
+UNIX.
+.pp
+Warning:
+changing point sizes
+on the phototypesetter
+is a slow mechanical operation.
+On laser printers it may require loading new fonts.
+Size changes
+should be considered carefully.
+.sh 2 "Quotes"
+.pp
+It is conventional when using
+the typesetter to
+use pairs of grave and acute accents
+to generate double quotes,
+rather than the
+double quote character
+(`\|"\|').
+This is because it looks better
+to use grave and acute accents;
+for example, compare
+"quote" to
+``quote''.
+.pp
+You may use the sequences
+.b \e*(lq
+and
+.b \e*(rq
+to stand for the left and right quote
+respectively.
+For example,
+use:
+.(b
+\e*(lqSome things aren\(aat true
+even if they did happen.\e*(rq
+.)b
+to generate the result:
+.(b
+.q "Some things aren't true even if they did happen."
+.)b
+As a shorthand,
+the special font request:
+.(b
+\&.q "quoted text"
+.)b
+will generate
+.q "quoted text" .
+Notice that you must surround
+the material to be quoted
+with double quote marks
+if it is more than one word.

+.ce 0
+.sp 4
+.pp
+This document describes
+in extremely terse form
+the features
+of the
+.b \-me
+macro package
+for \*G.
+Some familiarity is assumed
+with
+\*G.
+Specifically,
+the reader should understand
+breaks,
+fonts,
+pointsizes,
+the use and definition of number registers
+and strings,
+how to define macros,
+and scaling factors for ens, points,
+.b v 's
+(vertical line spaces),
+etc.
+.pp
+For a more casual introduction
+to text processing
+using \*G,
+refer to the document
+.ul
+Writing Papers with \*G using \-me.
+.pp
+There are a number of macro parameters
+that may be adjusted.
+Fonts may be set to a font number only.
+Font 0 is no font change;
+the font of the surrounding text
+is used instead.
+Notice that font 0 is a
+.q pseudo-font ;
+that is,
+it is simulated by the macros.
+This means that although it is legal to set a font register
+to zero,
+it is not legal to use the escape character form,
+such as:
+.(b
+\ef0
+.)b
+.pp
+All distances
+are in basic units,
+so it is nearly always necessary
+to use a scaling factor.
+For example,
+the request
+to set the paragraph indent
+to eight one-en spaces is:
+.(b
+\&.nr pi 8n
+.)b
+and not
+.(b
+\&.nr pi 8
+.)b
+which would set the paragraph indent to eight basic units,
+or about 0.02 inch.
+Default parameter values are given in brackets
+in the remainder of this document.
+.pp
+Registers and strings
+of the form
+.b $ \c
+.i x
+may be used in expressions
+but should not be changed.
+Macros of the form
+.b $ \c
+.i x
+perform some function
+(as described)
+and may be redefined
+to change this function.
+This may be a sensitive operation;
+look at the body of the original macro
+before changing it.
+.pp
+All names in \-me
+follow a rigid naming convention.
+The user may define number registers,
+strings,
+and macros,
+provided that s/he
+uses single character upper case names
+or double character names
+consisting of letters and digits,
+with at least one upper case letter.
+In no case should special characters
+be used in user-defined names.
+Locally defined macros
+should all be of the form
+.b .* \c
+.i X ,
+where
+.i X
+is any letter
+(upper or lower case)
+or digit.
+.pp
+This documentation was \*G'ed
+on \*(td
+and applies to \*G version
+\*(MO
+of the \-me macros.
+.sh 1 "Paragraphing"
+.pp
+These macros are used
+to begin paragraphs.
+The standard paragraph macro
+is
+.b .pp ;
+the others are all variants
+to be used for special purposes.
+.pp
+After the first call to one of the paragraphing macros
+defined in this section
+or the
+.b .sh
+macro
+(defined in the next session),
+the effects of changing parameters
+which will have a global effect
+on the format of the page
+(notably page length and header and footer margins)
+are not well defined
+and should be avoided.
+.TL
+.b .lp
+.DE
+Begin left-justified paragraph.
+Centering and underlining
+are turned off if they were on,
+the font is set to
+.NR (pf
+[1]
+the type size
+is set to
+.NR (pp
+[10p],
+and a
+.NR (ps
+space is inserted
+before the paragraph
+[0.35v]
+The indent is reset
+to
+.NR ($i
+[0]
+plus
+.NR (po
+[0]
+unless the paragraph
+is inside a display.
+(see
+.b .ba ).
+At least
+the first two lines
+of the paragraph
+are kept together
+on a page.
+.TL
+.b .pp
+.DE
+Like
+.b .lp ,
+except that it puts
+.NR (pi
+[5n]
+units of indent.
+This is the standard paragraph macro.
+.TL
+.b .ip
+.i T
+.i I
+.DE
+Indented paragraph
+with hanging tag.
+The body of the following paragraph
+is indented
+.i I
+spaces
+(or
+.NR (ii
+[5n]
+spaces
+if
+.i I
+is not specified)
+more than a non-indented paragraph
+(such as with
+.b .pp )
+is.
+The title
+.i T
+is exdented (opposite of indented).
+The result is a paragraph
+with an even left edge
+and
+.i T
+printed in the margin.
+Any spaces in
+.i T
+must be unpaddable.
+If
+.i T
+will not fit in the space provided,
+.b .ip
+will start a new line.
+.TL
+.b .np
+.DE
+A variant of .ip which numbers paragraphs.
+Numbering is reset
+after a
+.b .lp ,
+.b .pp ,
+or
+.b .sh .
+The current paragraph number
+is in
+.NR ($p .
+.TL
+.b .bu
+.DE
+Like
+.b .np
+except that paragraphs are marked with bullets (\(bu).
+Leading space is eliminated to create compact lists.
+.sh 1 "Section Headings"
+.pp
+Numbered sections
+are similar to paragraphs
+except that a
+section number
+is automatically
+generated for each one.
+The section numbers are of the form
+.b 1.2.3 .
+The
+.i depth
+of the section
+is the count of numbers
+(separated by decimal points)
+in the section number.
+.pp
+Unnumbered section headings are similar,
+except that no number is attached
+to the heading.
+.TL
+.b .sh
+.i +N
+.i T
+.i "a b c d e f"
+.DE
+Begin numbered section
+of depth
+.i N .
+If
+.i N
+is missing
+the current depth
+(maintained in
+the number register
+.NR ($0 )
+is used.
+The values of
+the individual parts of the section number
+are maintained in
+.NR ($1
+through
+.NR ($6 .
+There is a
+.NR (ss
+[1v]
+space before the section.
+.i T
+is printed
+as a section title
+in font
+.NR (sf
+[8]
+and size
+.NR (sp
+[10p].
+The
+.q name
+of the section may be accessed via
+.ST ($n .
+If
+.NR (si
+is non-zero,
+the base indent
+is set to
+.NR (si
+times the section depth,
+and the section title
+is exdented.
+(See
+.b .ba .)
+Also,
+an additional indent of
+.NR (so
+[0]
+is added to the section title
+(but not to the body of the section).
+The font is then set
+to the paragraph font,
+so that more information may occur
+on the line
+with the section number
+and title.
+.b .sh
+insures that there is enough room
+to print the section head
+plus the beginning of a paragraph
+(about 3 lines total).
+If
+.i a
+through
+.i f
+are specified,
+the section number is set to that number
+rather than incremented automatically.
+If any of
+.i a
+through
+.i f
+are a hyphen
+that number is not reset.
+If
+.i T
+is a single underscore
+(\c
+.q _ )
+then the section depth and numbering is reset,
+but the base indent is not reset
+and nothing is printed out.
+This is useful to automatically
+coordinate section numbers with
+chapter numbers.
+.TL
+.b .sx
+.i +N
+.DE
+Go to section depth
+.i N
+[\c
+.b \-1 ],
+but do not print the number
+and title,
+and do not increment the section number
+at level
+.i N .
+This has the effect
+of starting a new paragraph
+at level
+.i N .
+.TL
+.b .uh
+.i T
+.DE
+Unnumbered section heading.
+The title
+.i T
+is printed
+with the same rules for spacing,
+font, etc.,
+as for
+.b .sh .
+.TL
+.b .$p
+.i T
+.i B
+.i N
+.DE
+Print section heading.
+May be redefined
+to get fancier headings.
+.i T
+is the title passed on the
+.b .sh
+or
+.b .uh
+line;
+.i B
+is the section number for this section,
+and
+.i N
+is the depth of this section.
+These parameters are not always present;
+in particular,
+.b .sh
+passes all three,
+.b .uh
+passes only the first,
+and
+.b .sx
+passes three,
+but the first two
+are null strings.
+Care should be taken if this macro
+is redefined;
+it is quite complex and subtle.
+.TL
+.b .$0
+.i T
+.i B
+.i N
+.DE
+This macro is called automatically
+after every call to
+.b .$p .
+It is normally undefined,
+but may be used
+to automatically put
+every section title
+into the table of contents
+or for some similar function.
+.i T
+is the section title
+for the section title which was just printed,
+.i B
+is the section number,
+and
+.i N
+is the section depth.
+.TL
+.b .$1
+\-
+.b .$6
+.DE
+Traps called just before printing that depth section.
+May be defined to
+(for example)
+give variable spacing
+before sections.
+These macros are called from
+.b .$p ,
+so if you redefine that macro
+you may lose this feature.
+.sh 1 "Headers and Footers"
+.ds TP \fI\(aal\|\(aam\^\(aar\^\(aa\fP
+.pp
+Headers and footers
+are put at the top and bottom
+of every page
+automatically.
+They are set in font
+.NR (tf
+[3]
+and size
+.NR (tp
+[10p].
+Each of the definitions
+apply as of the
+.i next
+page.
+Three-part titles
+must be quoted
+if there are two blanks adjacent
+anywhere in the title
+or more than eight blanks total.
+.pp
+The spacing
+of headers and footers
+are controlled by three number registers.
+.NR (hm
+[4v]
+is the distance from the top of the page
+to the top of the header,
+.NR (fm
+[3v]
+is the distance from the bottom of the page
+to the bottom of the footer,
+.NR (tm
+[7v]
+is the distance from the top of the page
+to the top of the text,
+and
+.NR (bm
+[6v]
+is the distance from the bottom of the page
+to the bottom of the text
+(nominal).
+The macros
