+@chapter Introduction
+
+DC is a reverse-polish desk calculator which supports unlimited
+precision arithmetic.  It also allows you to define and call macros.
+Normally DC reads from the standard input; if any command arguments
+are given to it, they are filenames, and DC reads and executes the
+contents of the files before reading from standard input.  All output
+is to standard output.
+
+To exit, use @samp{q}.  @kbd{C-c} does not exit; it is used to abort
+macros that are looping, etc.  (Currently this is not true; @kbd{C-c}
+does exit.)
+
+A reverse-polish calculator stores numbers on a stack.  Entering a
+number pushes it on the stack.  Arithmetic operations pop arguments off
+the stack and push the results.
+
+To enter a number in DC, type the digits, with an optional decimal
+point.  Exponential notation is not supported.  To enter a negative
+number, begin the number with @samp{_}.  @samp{-} cannot be used for
+this, as it is a binary operator for subtraction instead.
+To enter two numbers in succession, separate them with spaces or
+newlines.  These have no meaning as commands.
+
+@node Printing Commands, Arithmetic, Introduction, Top
+@chapter Printing Commands
+
+@table @samp
+@item p
+Prints the value on the top of the stack,
+without altering the stack.  A newline is printed
+after the value.
+
+@item P
+Prints the value on the top of the stack,
+popping it off, and does not print a newline after.
+
+@item f
+Prints the entire contents of the stack
+and the contents of all of the registers,
+without altering anything.  This is a good command
+to use if you are lost or want to figure out
+what the effect of some command has been.
+@end table
+
+@node Arithmetic, Stack Control, Printing Commands, Top
+@chapter Arithmetic
+
+@table @samp
+@item +
+Pops two values off the stack, adds them,
+and pushes the result.  The precision of the result
+is determined only by the values of the arguments,
+and is enough to be exact.
+
+@item -
+Pops two values, subtracts the first one popped
+from the second one popped, and pushes the result.
+
+@item *
+Pops two values, multiplies them, and pushes the result.
+The number of fraction digits in the result is controlled
+by the current precision flag (see below) and does not
+depend on the values being multiplied.
+
+@item /
+Pops two values, divides the second one popped from
+the first one popped, and pushes the result.
+The number of fraction digits is specified by the precision flag.
+
+@item %
+Pops two values, computes the remainder of the division
+that the @samp{/} command would do, and pushes that.
+The division is done with as many fraction digits
+as the precision flag specifies, and the remainder
+is also computed with that many fraction digits.
+
+@item ^
+Pops two values and exponentiates, using the first
+value popped as the exponent and the second popped as the base.
+The fraction part of the exponent is ignored.
+The precision flag specifies the number of fraction
+digits in the result.
+
+@item v
+Pops one value, computes its square root, and pushes that.
+The precision flag specifies the number of fraction digits
+in the result.
+@end table
+
+Most arithmetic operations are affected by the "precision flag",
+which you can set with the @samp{k} command.  The default precision
+value is zero, which means that all arithmetic except for
+addition and subtraction produces integer results.
+
+The remainder operation (@samp{%}) requires some explanation: applied to
+arguments @samp{a} and @samp{b} it produces @samp{a - (b * (a / b))},
+where @samp{a / b} is computed in the current precision.

+@chapter Stack Control
+
+@table @samp
+@item c
+Clears the stack, rendering it empty.
+
+@item d
+Duplicates the value on the top of the stack,
+pushing another copy of it.  Thus,
+`4d*p' computes 4 squared and prints it.
+@end table
+
+@node Registers, Parameters, Stack Control, Top
+@chapter Registers
+
+DC provides 128 memory registers, each named by a single
+ASCII character.  You can store a number in a register
+and retrieve it later.
+
+@table @samp
+@item s@var{r}
+Pop the value off the top of the stack and store
+it into register @var{r}.
+
+@item l@var{r}
+Copy the value in register @var{r}, and push it onto
+the stack.  This does not alter the contents of @var{r}.
+
+Each register also contains its own stack.  The current
+register value is the top of the register's stack.
+
+@item S@var{r}
+Pop the value off the top of the (main) stack and
+push it onto the stack of register @var{r}.
+The previous value of the register becomes inaccessible.
+
+@item L@var{r}
+Pop the value off the top of register @var{r}'s stack
+and push it onto the main stack.  The previous value
+in register @var{r}'s stack, if any, is now accessible
+via the `l@var{r}' command.
+@end table
+
+The @samp{f} command prints a list of all registers that have contents
+stored in them, together with their contents.  Only the
+current contents of each register (the top of its stack)
+is printed.
+
+@node Parameters, Strings, Registers, Top
+@chapter Parameters
+
+DC has three parameters that control its operation: the precision, the
+input radix, and the output radix.  The precision specifies the number
+of fraction digits to keep in the result of most arithmetic operations.
+The input radix controls the interpretation of numbers typed in;
+@emph{all} numbers typed in use this radix.  The output radix is used
+for printing numbers.
+
+The input and output radices are separate parameters; you can make them
+unequal, which can be useful or confusing.  Each radix must be between 2
+and 36 inclusive.  The precision must be zero or greater.  The precision
+is always measured in decimal digits, regardless of the current input or
+output radix.
+
+@table @samp
+@item i
+Pops the value off the top of the stack
+and uses it to set the input radix.
+
+@item o
+@itemx k
+Similarly set the output radix and the precision.
+
+@item I
+Pushes the current input radix on the stack.
+
+@item O
+@itemx K
+Similarly push the current output radix and the current precision.
+@end table
+
+@node Strings, Status Inquiry, Parameters, Top
+@chapter Strings
+
+DC can operate on strings as well as on numbers.  The only things you
+can do with strings are print them and execute them as macros (which
+means that the contents of the string are processed as DC commands).
+Both registers and the stack can hold strings, and DC always knows
+whether any given object is a string or a number.  Some commands such as
+arithmetic operations demand numbers as arguments and print errors if
+given strings.  Other commands can accept either a number or a string;
+for example, the @samp{p} command can accept either and prints the object
+according to its type.
+
+@table @samp
+@item [@var{characters}]
+Makes a string containing @var{characters} and pushes it
+on the stack.  For example, @samp{[foo]P} prints the
+characters @samp{foo} (with no newline).
+
+@item x
+Pops a value off the stack and executes it as a macro.
+Normally it should be a string; if it is a number,
+it is simply pushed back onto the stack.
+For example, @samp{[1p]x} executes the macro @samp{1p}, which
+pushes 1 on the stack and prints @samp{1} on a separate line.
+
+Macros are most often stored in registers;
+@samp{[1p]sa} stores a macro to print @samp{1} into register @samp{a},
+and @samp{lax} invokes the macro.
+
+@item >@var{r}
+Pops two values off the stack and compares them
+assuming they are numbers, executing the contents
+of register @var{r} as a macro if the original top-of-stack
+is greater.  Thus, @samp{1 2>a} will invoke register @samp{a}'s contents
+and @samp{2 1>a} will not.
+
+@item <@var{r}
+Similar but invokes the macro if the original top-of-stack
+is less.
+
+@item =@var{r}
+Similar but invokes the macro if the two numbers popped
+are equal.  This can also be validly used to compare two
+strings for equality.
+
+@item ?
+Reads a line from the terminal and executes it.
+This command allows a macro to request input from the user.
+
+@item q
+During the execution of a macro, this comand
+does not exit DC.  Instead, it exits from that
+macro and also from the macro which invoked it (if any).
+
+@item Q
+Pops a value off the stack and uses it as a count
+of levels of macro execution to be exited.  Thus,
+@samp{3Q} exits three levels.

+@chapter Status Inquiry
+
+@table @samp
+@item Z
+Pops a value off the stack, calculates the number of
+digits it has (or number of characters, if it is a string)
+and pushes that number.
+
+@item X
+Pops a value off the stack, calculates the number of
+fraction digits it has, and pushes that number.
+For a string, the value pushed is -1.
+
+@item z
+Pushes the current stack depth; the number of
+objects on the stack before the execution of the @samp{z} command.
+
+@item I
+Pushes the current value of the input radix.
+
+@item O
+Pushes the current value of the output radix.
+
+@item K
+Pushes the current value of the precision.
