+
+@cindex FDL, GNU Free Documentation License
+@center Version 1.1, March 2000
+
+@display
+Copyright @copyright{} 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
+
+Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+@end display
+
+@enumerate 0
+@item
+PREAMBLE
+
+The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+written document @dfn{free} in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone
+the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
+modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily,
+this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get
+credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for
+modifications made by others.
+
+This License is a kind of ``copyleft'', which means that derivative
+works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
+complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+license designed for free software.
+
+We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
+software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
+program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
+software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
+it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
+whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
+principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
+
+@item
+APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
+notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
+under the terms of this License. The ``Document'', below, refers to any
+such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is
+addressed as ``you''.
+
+A ``Modified Version'' of the Document means any work containing the
+Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+A ``Secondary Section'' is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
+the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
+(or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
+within that overall subject. (For example, if the Document is in part a
+textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
+mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
+connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
+commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
+them.
+
+The ``Invariant Sections'' are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
+are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
+that says that the Document is released under this License.
+
+The ``Cover Texts'' are certain short passages of text that are listed,
+as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
+the Document is released under this License.
+
+A ``Transparent'' copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and
+straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
+pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
+drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
+for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
+to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
+format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage
+subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is
+not ``Transparent'' is called ``Opaque''.
+
+Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+@sc{ascii} without markup, Texinfo input format, La@TeX{} input format,
+@acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} using a publicly available
+@acronym{DTD}, and standard-conforming simple @acronym{HTML} designed
+for human modification. Opaque formats include PostScript,
+@acronym{PDF}, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
+proprietary word processors, @acronym{SGML} or @acronym{XML} for which
+the @acronym{DTD} and/or processing tools are not generally available,
+and the machine-generated @acronym{HTML} produced by some word
+processors for output purposes only.
+
+The ``Title Page'' means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
+this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
+formats which do not have any title page as such, ``Title Page'' means
+the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
+preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+@item
+VERBATIM COPYING
+
+You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
+to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
+conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
+technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
+copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
+compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
+number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
+
+You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
+you may publicly display copies.
+
+@item
+COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than 100,
+and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose
+the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
+Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
+the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
+you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
+the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
+visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
+Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
+the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
+as verbatim copying in other respects.
+
+If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
+pages.
+
+If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
+more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
+copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
+a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete
+Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the
+general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
+charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter
+option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin
+distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
+Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location
+until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque
+copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to
+the public.
+
+It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
+Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
+them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
+
+@item
+MODIFICATIONS
+
+You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
+the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
+the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
+Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
+and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
+of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
+
+@enumerate A
+@item
+Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
+from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
+(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
+of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version
+if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
+
+@item
+List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
+responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
+Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
+Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five).
+
+@item
+State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+Modified Version, as the publisher.
+
+@item
+Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+
+@item
+Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+
+@item
+Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
+giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
+terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
+
+@item
+Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
+and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
+
+@item
+Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+@item
+Preserve the section entitled ``History'', and its title, and add to
+it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
+publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
+there is no section entitled ``History'' in the Document, create one
+stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
+given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
+Version as stated in the previous sentence.
+
+@item
+Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
+public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
+the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
+it was based on. These may be placed in the ``History'' section.
+You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
+least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
+publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
+
+@item
+In any section entitled ``Acknowledgments'' or ``Dedications'',
+preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the
+substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgments
+and/or dedications given therein.
+
+@item
+Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
+or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
+
+@item
+Delete any section entitled ``Endorsements''. Such a section
+may not be included in the Modified Version.
+
+@item
+Do not retitle any existing section as ``Endorsements''
+or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
+@end enumerate
+
+If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
+copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
+of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
+list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
+These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
+
+You may add a section entitled ``Endorsements'', provided it contains
+nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+parties---for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
+been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
+standard.
+
+You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
+passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
+of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
+Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
+through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
+includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
+by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
+you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
+permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
+
+The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
+give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
+imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+@item
+COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
+License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
+versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
+Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
+list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
+license notice.
+
+The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
+different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
+adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
+author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
+Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
+Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
+
+In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled ``History''
+in the various original documents, forming one section entitled
+``History''; likewise combine any sections entitled ``Acknowledgments'',
+and any sections entitled ``Dedications''. You must delete all sections
+entitled ``Endorsements.''
+
+@item
+COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
+released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
+License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
+the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
+verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
+
+You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
+it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
+License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
+other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
+
+@item
+AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
+and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
+distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version
+of the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the
+compilation. Such a compilation is called an ``aggregate'', and this
+License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled
+with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they
+are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
+
+If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter
+of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
+covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate.
+Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.
+
+@item
+TRANSLATION
+
+Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
+Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
+translation of this License provided that you also include the
+original English version of this License. In case of a disagreement
+between the translation and the original English version of this
+License, the original English version will prevail.
+
+@item
+TERMINATION
+
+You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
+as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to
+copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
+automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
+parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
+License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+@item
+FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
+of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
+versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
+@uref{http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/}.
+
+Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
+If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
+License ``or any later version'' applies to it, you have the option of
+following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
+of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
+Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
+number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
+as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.

+@appendixsubsec ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and
+license notices just after the title page:
+
+@smallexample
+@group
+ Copyright (C) @var{year} @var{your name}.
+ Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+ under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1
+ or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+ with the Invariant Sections being @var{list their titles}, with the
+ Front-Cover Texts being @var{list}, and with the Back-Cover Texts being @var{list}.
+ A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
+ Free Documentation License''.
+@end group
+@end smallexample
+
+If you have no Invariant Sections, write ``with no Invariant Sections''
+instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no
+Front-Cover Texts, write ``no Front-Cover Texts'' instead of
+``Front-Cover Texts being @var{list}''; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.
+
+If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
+to permit their use in free software.

+
+ GNU `troff' (or `groff') is a system for typesetting documents.
+`troff' is very flexible and has been in existence (and use) for about
+3 decades. It is quite widespread and firmly entrenched in the UNIX
+community.

+
+What Is `groff'?
+================
+
+ `groff' belongs to an older generation of document preparation
+systems, which operate more like compilers than the more recent
+interactive WYSIWYG(1) (*note What Is groff?-Footnote-1::) systems.
+`groff' and its contemporary counterpart, TeX, both work using a
+"batch" paradigm: The input (or "source") files are normal text files
+with embedded formatting commands. These files can then be processed
+by `groff' to produce a typeset document on a variety of devices.
+
+ Likewise, `groff' should not be confused with a "word processor",
+since that term connotes an integrated system that includes an editor
+and a text formatter. Also, many word processors follow the WYSIWYG
+paradigm discussed earlier.
+
+ Although WYSIWYG systems may be easier to use, they have a number of
+disadvantages compared to `troff':
+
+ * They must be used on a graphics display to work on a document.
+
+ * Most of the WYSIWYG systems are either non-free or are not very
+ portable.
+
+ * `troff' is firmly entrenched in all UNIX systems.
+
+ * It is difficult to have a wide range of capabilities available
+ within the confines of a GUI/window system.
+
+ * It is more difficult to make global changes to a document.
+
+ "GUIs normally make it simple to accomplish simple actions and
+ impossible to accomplish complex actions." -Doug Gwyn (22/Jun/91
+ in `comp.unix.wizards')

+
+ (1) What You See Is What You Get
+
+
+File: groff, Node: History, Next: groff Capabilities, Prev: What Is groff?, Up: Introduction
+
+History
+=======
+
+ `troff' can trace its origins back to a formatting program called
+`runoff', written by J. E. Saltzer, which ran on MIT's CTSS operating
+system in the mid-sixties. This name came from the common phrase of
+the time "I'll run off a document." Bob Morris ported it to the 635
+architecture and called the program `roff' (an abbreviation of
+`runoff'). It was rewritten as `rf' for the PDP-7 (before having
+UNIX), and at the same time (1969), Doug McIllroy rewrote an extended
+and simplified version of `roff' in the BCPL programming language.
+
+ The first version of UNIX was developed on a PDP-7 which was sitting
+around Bell Labs. In 1971 the developers wanted to get a PDP-11 for
+further work on the operating system. In order to justify the cost for
+this system, they proposed that they would implement a document
+formatting system for the AT&T patents division. This first formatting
+program was a reimplementation of McIllroy's `roff', written by
+J. F. Ossanna.
+
+ When they needed a more flexible language, a new version of `roff'
+called `nroff' ("Newer `roff'") was written. It had a much more
+complicated syntax, but provided the basis for all future versions.
+When they got a Graphic Systems CAT Phototypesetter, Ossanna wrote a
+version of `nroff' that would drive it. It was dubbed `troff', for
+"typesetter `roff'", although many people have speculated that it
+actually means "Times `roff'" because of the use of the Times font
+family in `troff' by default. As such, the name `troff' is pronounced
+`t-roff' rather than `trough'.
+
+ With `troff' came `nroff' (they were actually the same program
+except for some `#ifdef's), which was for producing output for line
+printers and character terminals. It understood everything `troff'
+did, and ignored the commands which were not applicable (e.g. font
+changes).
+
+ Since there are several things which cannot be done easily in
+`troff', work on several preprocessors began. These programs would
+transform certain parts of a document into `troff', which made a very
+natural use of pipes in UNIX.
+
+ The `eqn' preprocessor allowed mathematical formulae to be specified
+in a much simpler and more intuitive manner. `tbl' is a preprocessor
+for formatting tables. The `refer' preprocessor (and the similar
+program, `bib') processes citations in a document according to a
+bibliographic database.
+
+ Unfortunately, Ossanna's `troff' was written in PDP-11 assembly
+language and produced output specifically for the CAT phototypesetter.
+He rewrote it in C, although it was now 7000 lines of uncommented code
+and still dependent on the CAT. As the CAT became less common, and was
+no longer supported by the manufacturer, the need to make it support
+other devices became a priority. However, before this could be done,
+Ossanna was killed in a car accident.
+
+ So, Brian Kernighan took on the task of rewriting `troff'. The
+newly rewritten version produced device independent code which was very
+easy for postprocessors to read and translate to the appropriate
+printer codes. Also, this new version of `troff' (called `ditroff' for
+"device independent `troff'") had several extensions, which included
+drawing functions.
+
+ Due to the additional abilities of the new version of `troff',
+several new preprocessors appeared. The `pic' preprocessor provides a
+wide range of drawing functions. Likewise the `ideal' preprocessor did
+the same, although via a much different paradigm. The `grap'
+preprocessor took specifications for graphs, but, unlike other
+preprocessors, produced `pic' code.
+
+ James Clark began work on a GNU implementation of `ditroff' in
+early 1989. The first version, `groff' 0.3.1, was released June 1990.
+`groff' included:
+
+ * A replacement for `ditroff' with many extensions.
+
+ * The `soelim', `pic', `tbl', and `eqn' preprocessors.
+
+ * Postprocessors for character devices, POSTSCRIPT, TeX DVI, and
+ X Windows. GNU `troff' also eliminated the need for a separate
+ `nroff' program with a postprocessor which would produce ASCII
+ output.
+
+ * A version of the `me' macros and an implementation of the `man'
+ macros.
+
+ Also, a front-end was included which could construct the, sometimes
+painfully long, pipelines required for all the post- and preprocessors.
+
+ Development of GNU `troff' progressed rapidly, and saw the additions
+of a replacement for `refer', an implementation of the `ms' and `mm'
+macros, and a program to deduce how to format a document (`grog').
+
+ It was declared a stable (i.e. non-beta) package with the release of
+version 1.04 around November 1991.
+
+ Beginning in 1999, `groff' has new maintainers (the package was an
+orphan for a few years). As a result, new features and programs like
+`grn', a preprocessor for gremlin images, and an output device to
+produce HTML output have been added.

+
+`groff' Capabilities
+====================
+
+ So what exactly is `groff' capable of doing? `groff' provides a
+wide range of low-level text formatting operations. Using these, it is
+possible to perform a wide range of formatting tasks, such as
+footnotes, table of contents, multiple columns, etc. Here's a list of
+the most important operations supported by `groff':
+
+ * text filling, adjusting, and centering
+
+ * hyphenation
+
+ * page control
+
+ * font and glyph size control
+
+ * vertical spacing (e.g. double-spacing)
+
+ * line length and indenting
+
+ * macros, strings, diversions, and traps
+
+ * number registers
+
+ * tabs, leaders, and fields
+
+ * input and output conventions and character translation
+
+ * overstrike, bracket, line drawing, and zero-width functions
+
+ * local horizontal and vertical motions and the width function
+
+ * three-part titles
+
+ * output line numbering
+
+ * conditional acceptance of input
+
+ * environment switching
+
+ * insertions from the standard input
+
+ * input/output file switching
+
+ * output and error messages
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Macro Package Intro, Next: Preprocessor Intro, Prev: groff Capabilities, Up: Introduction
+
+Macro Packages
+==============
+
+ Since `groff' provides such low-level facilities, it can be quite
+difficult to use by itself. However, `groff' provides a "macro"
+facility to specify how certain routine operations (e.g. starting
+paragraphs, printing headers and footers, etc.) should be done. These
+macros can be collected together into a "macro package". There are a
+number of macro packages available; the most common (and the ones
+described in this manual) are `man', `mdoc', `me', `ms', and `mm'.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Preprocessor Intro, Next: Output device intro, Prev: Macro Package Intro, Up: Introduction
+
+Preprocessors
+=============
+
+ Although `groff' provides most functions needed to format a
+document, some operations would be unwieldy (e.g. to draw pictures).
+Therefore, programs called "preprocessors" were written which
+understand their own language and produce the necessary `groff'
+operations. These preprocessors are able to differentiate their own
+input from the rest of the document via markers.
+
+ To use a preprocessor, UNIX pipes are used to feed the output from
+the preprocessor into `groff'. Any number of preprocessors may be used
+on a given document; in this case, the preprocessors are linked
+together into one pipeline. However, with `groff', the user does not
+need to construct the pipe, but only tell `groff' what preprocessors to
+use.
+
+ `groff' currently has preprocessors for producing tables (`tbl'),
+typesetting equations (`eqn'), drawing pictures (`pic' and `grn'), and
+for processing bibliographies (`refer'). An associated program which
+is useful when dealing with preprocessors is `soelim'.
+
+ A free implementation of `grap', a preprocessor for drawing graphs,
+can be obtained as an extra package; `groff' can use `grap' also.
+
+ There are other preprocessors in existence, but, unfortunately, no
+free implementations are available. Among them are preprocessors for
+drawing mathematical pictures (`ideal') and chemical structures
+(`chem').
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Output device intro, Next: Credits, Prev: Preprocessor Intro, Up: Introduction
+
+Output Devices
+==============
+
+ `groff' actually produces device independent code which may be fed
+into a postprocessor to produce output for a particular device.
+Currently, `groff' has postprocessors for POSTSCRIPT devices, character
+terminals, X Windows (for previewing), TeX DVI format, HP LaserJet 4
+and Canon LBP printers (which use CAPSL), and HTML.

+=======
+
+ Large portions of this manual were taken from existing documents,
+most notably, the manual pages for the `groff' package by James Clark,
+and Eric Allman's papers on the `me' macro package.
+
+ The section on the `man' macro package is partly based on Susan G.
+Kleinmann's `groff_man' manual page written for the Debian GNU/Linux
+system.

+
+Invoking `groff'
+****************
+
+ This section focuses on how to invoke the `groff' front end. This
+front end takes care of the details of constructing the pipeline among
+the preprocessors, `gtroff' and the postprocessor.
+
+ It has become a tradition that GNU programs get the prefix `g' to
+distinguish it from its original counterparts provided by the host (see
+*Note Environment::, for more details). Thus, for example, `geqn' is
+GNU `eqn'. On operating systems like GNU/Linux or the Hurd, which
+don't contain proprietary versions of `troff', and on
+MS-DOS/MS-Windows, where `troff' and associated programs are not
+available at all, this prefix is omitted since GNU `troff' is the only
+used incarnation of `troff'. Exception: `groff' is never replaced by
+`roff'.
+
+ In this document, we consequently say `gtroff' when talking about
+the GNU `troff' program. All other implementations of `troff' are
+called AT&T `troff' which is the common origin of all `troff' derivates
+(with more or less compatible changes). Similarly, we say `gpic',
+`geqn', etc.

+
+Options
+=======
+
+ `groff' normally runs the `gtroff' program and a postprocessor
+appropriate for the selected device. The default device is `ps' (but
+it can be changed when `groff' is configured and built). It can
+optionally preprocess with any of `gpic', `geqn', `gtbl', `ggrn',
+`grap', `grefer', or `gsoelim'.
+
+ This section only documents options to the `groff' front end. Many
+of the arguments to `groff' are passed on to `gtroff', therefore those
+are also included. Arguments to pre- or postprocessors can be found in
+*Note Invoking gpic::, *Note Invoking geqn::, *Note Invoking gtbl::,
+*Note Invoking ggrn::, *Note Invoking grefer::, *Note Invoking
+gsoelim::, *Note Invoking grotty::, *Note Invoking grops::, *Note
+Invoking grohtml::, *Note Invoking grodvi::, *Note Invoking grolj4::,
+*Note Invoking grolbp::, and *Note Invoking gxditview::.
+
+ The command line format for `groff' is:
+
+
+ groff [ -abceghilpstvzCEGNRSUVXZ ] [ -FDIR ] [ -mNAME ]
+ [ -TDEF ] [ -fFAM ] [ -wNAME ] [ -WNAME ]
+ [ -MDIR ] [ -dCS ] [ -rCN ] [ -nNUM ]
+ [ -oLIST ] [ -PARG ] [ -LARG ] [ -IDIR ]
+ [ FILES... ]
+
+ The command line format for `gtroff' is as follows.
+
+
+ gtroff [ -abcivzCERU ] [ -wNAME ] [ -WNAME ] [ -dCS ]
+ [ -fFAM ] [ -mNAME ] [ -nNUM ]
+ [ -oLIST ] [ -rCN ] [ -TNAME ]
+ [ -FDIR ] [ -MDIR ] [ FILES... ]
+
+Obviously, many of the options to `groff' are actually passed on to
+`gtroff'.
+
+ Options without an argument can be grouped behind a single `-'. A
+filename of `-' denotes the standard input. It is possible to have
+whitespace between an option and its parameter.
+
+ The `grog' command can be used to guess the correct `groff' command
+to format a file.
+
+ Here's the description of the command-line options:
+
+`-h'
+ Print a help message.
+
+`-e'
+ Preprocess with `geqn'.
+
+`-t'
+ Preprocess with `gtbl'.
+
+`-g'
+ Preprocess with `ggrn'.
+
+`-G'
+ Preprocess with `grap'.
+
+`-p'
+ Preprocess with `gpic'.
+
+`-s'
+ Preprocess with `gsoelim'.
+
+`-c'
+ Suppress color output.
+
+`-R'
+ Preprocess with `grefer'. No mechanism is provided for passing
+ arguments to `grefer' because most `grefer' options have
+ equivalent commands which can be included in the file. *Note
+ grefer::, for more details.
+
+ Note that `gtroff' also accepts a `-R' option, which is not
+ accessible via `groff'. This option prevents the loading of the
+ `troffrc' and `troffrc-end' files.
+
+`-v'
+ Make programs run by `groff' print out their version number.
+
+`-V'
+ Print the pipeline on `stdout' instead of executing it.
+
+`-z'
+ Suppress output from `gtroff'. Only error messages are printed.
+
+`-Z'
+ Do not postprocess the output of `gtroff'. Normally `groff'
+ automatically runs the appropriate postprocessor.
+
+`-PARG'
+ Pass ARG to the postprocessor. Each argument should be passed
+ with a separate `-P' option. Note that `groff' does not prepend
+ `-' to ARG before passing it to the postprocessor.
+
+`-l'
+ Send the output to a spooler for printing. The command used for
+ this is specified by the `print' command in the device description
+ file (see *Note Font Files::, for more info). If not present,
+ `-l' is ignored.
+
+`-LARG'
+ Pass ARG to the spooler. Each argument should be passed with a
+ separate `-L' option. Note that `groff' does not prepend a `-' to
+ ARG before passing it to the postprocessor. If the `print'
+ keyword in the device description file is missing, `-L' is ignored.
+
+`-TDEV'
+ Prepare output for device DEV. The default device is `ps', unless
+ changed when `groff' was configured and built. The following are
+ the output devices currently available:
+
+ `ps'
+ For POSTSCRIPT printers and previewers.
+
+ `dvi'
+ For TeX DVI format.
+
+ `X75'
+ For a 75dpi X11 previewer.
+
+ `X75-12'
+ For a 75dpi X11 previewer with a 12pt base font in the
+ document.
+
+ `X100'
+ For a 100dpi X11 previewer.
+
+ `X100-12'
+ For a 100dpi X11 previewer with a 12pt base font in the
+ document.
+
+ `ascii'
+ For typewriter-like devices using the (7-bit) ASCII character
+ set.
+
+ `latin1'
+ For typewriter-like devices that support the Latin-1
+ (ISO 8859-1) character set.
+
+ `utf8'
+ For typewriter-like devices which use the Unicode (ISO 10646)
+ character set with UTF-8 encoding.
+
+ `cp1047'
+ For typewriter-like devices which use the EBCDIC encoding IBM
+ cp1047.
+
+ `lj4'
+ For HP LaserJet4-compatible (or other PCL5-compatible)
+ printers.
+
+ `lbp'
+ For Canon CAPSL printers (LBP-4 and LBP-8 series laser
+ printers).
+
+ `html'
+ To produce HTML output. Note that the HTML driver consists
+ of two parts, a preprocessor (`pre-grohtml') and a
+ postprocessor (`post-grohtml').
+
+ The predefined `gtroff' string register `.T' contains the current
+ output device; the read-only number register `.T' is set to 1 if
+ this option is used (which is always true if `groff' is used to
+ call `gtroff'). *Note Built-in Registers::.
+
+ The postprocessor to be used for a device is specified by the
+ `postpro' command in the device description file. (*Note Font
+ Files::, for more info.) This can be overridden with the `-X'
+ option.
+
+`-X'
+ Preview with `gxditview' instead of using the usual postprocessor.
+ This is unlikely to produce good results except with `-Tps'.
+
+ Note that this is not the same as using `-TX75' or `-TX100' to
+ view a document with `gxditview': The former uses the metrics of
+ the specified device, whereas the latter uses X-specific fonts and
+ metrics.
+
+`-N'
+ Don't allow newlines with `eqn' delimiters. This is the same as
+ the `-N' option in `geqn'.
+
+`-S'
+ Safer mode. Pass the `-S' option to `gpic' and disable the
+ `open', `opena', `pso', `sy', and `pi' requests. For security
+ reasons, this is enabled by default.
+
+`-U'
+ Unsafe mode. This enables the `open', `opena', `pso', `sy', and
+ `pi' requests.
+
+`-a'
+ Generate an ASCII approximation of the typeset output. The
+ read-only register `.A' is then set to 1. *Note Built-in
+ Registers::. A typical example is

+
+`-wNAME'
+ Enable warning NAME. Available warnings are described in *Note
+ Debugging::. Multiple `-w' options are allowed.
+
+`-WNAME'
+ Inhibit warning NAME. Multiple `-W' options are allowed.
+
+`-E'
+ Inhibit all error messages.
+
+`-C'
+ Enable compatibility mode. *Note Implementation Differences::,
+ for the list of incompatibilities between `groff' and AT&T `troff'.
+
+`-dCS'
+`-dNAME=S'
+ Define C or NAME to be a string S. C must be a one-letter name;
+ NAME can be of arbitrary length. All string assignments happen
+ before loading any macro file (including the start-up file).
+
+`-fFAM'
+ Use FAM as the default font family. *Note Font Families::.
+
+`-mNAME'
+ Read in the file `NAME.tmac'. Normally `groff' searches for this
+ in its macro directories. If it isn't found, it tries `tmac.NAME'
+ (searching in the same directories).
+
+`-nNUM'
+ Number the first page NUM.
+
+`-oLIST'
+ Output only pages in LIST, which is a comma-separated list of page
+ ranges; `N' means print page N, `M-N' means print every page
+ between M and N, `-N' means print every page up to N, `N-' means
+ print every page beginning with N. `gtroff' exits after printing
+ the last page in the list. All the ranges are inclusive on both
+ ends.
+
+ Within `gtroff', this information can be extracted with the `.P'
+ register. *Note Built-in Registers::.
+
+ If your document restarts page numbering at the beginning of each
+ chapter, then `gtroff' prints the specified page range for each
+ chapter.
+
+`-rCN'
+`-rNAME=N'
+ Set number register C or NAME to the value N. C must be a
+ one-letter name; NAME can be of arbitrary length. N can be any
+ `gtroff' numeric expression. All register assignments happen
+ before loading any macro file (including the start-up file).
+
+`-FDIR'
+ Search `DIR' for subdirectories `devNAME' (NAME is the name of the
+ device), for the `DESC' file, and for font files before looking in
+ the standard directories (*note Font Directories::). This option
+ is passed to all pre- and postprocessors using the
+ `GROFF_FONT_PATH' environment variable.
+
+`-MDIR'
+ Search directory `DIR' for macro files before the standard
+ directories (*note Macro Directories::).
+
+`-IDIR'
+ This option is as described in *Note gsoelim::. It implies the
+ `-s' option.

+
+Environment
+===========
+
+ There are also several environment variables (of the operating
+system, not within `gtroff') which can modify the behavior of `groff'.
+
+`GROFF_COMMAND_PREFIX'
+ If this is set to X, then `groff' runs `Xtroff' instead of
+ `gtroff'. This also applies to `tbl', `pic', `eqn', `grn',
+ `refer', and `soelim'. It does not apply to `grops', `grodvi',
+ `grotty', `pre-grohtml', `post-grohtml', `grolj4', and `gxditview'.
+
+ The default command prefix is determined during the installation
+ process. If a non-GNU troff system is found, prefix `g' is used,
+ none otherwise.
+
+`GROFF_TMAC_PATH'
+ A colon-separated list of directories in which to search for macro
+ files (before the default directories are tried). *Note Macro
+ Directories::.
+
+`GROFF_TYPESETTER'
+ The default output device.
+
+`GROFF_FONT_PATH'
+ A colon-separated list of directories in which to search for the
+ `dev'NAME directory (before the default directories are tried).
+ *Note Font Directories::.
+
+`GROFF_BIN_PATH'
+ This search path, followed by `PATH', is used for commands executed
+ by `groff'.
+
+`GROFF_TMPDIR'
+ The directory in which `groff' creates temporary files. If this is
+ not set and `TMPDIR' is set, temporary files are created in that
+ directory. Otherwise temporary files are created in a
+ system-dependent default directory (on Unix and GNU/Linux systems,
+ this is usually `/tmp'). `grops', `grefer', `pre-grohtml', and
+ `post-grohtml' can create temporary files in this directory.
+
+ Note that MS-DOS and MS-Windows ports of `groff' use semi-colons,
+rather than colons, to separate the directories in the lists described
+above.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Macro Directories, Next: Font Directories, Prev: Environment, Up: Invoking groff
+
+Macro Directories
+=================
+
+ All macro file names must be named `NAME.tmac' or `tmac.NAME' to
+make the `-mNAME' command line option work. The `mso' request doesn't
+have this restriction; any file name can be used, and `gtroff' won't
+try to append or prepend the `tmac' string.
+
+ Macro files are kept in the "tmac directories", all of which
+constitute the "tmac path". The elements of the search path for macro
+files are (in that order):
+
+ * The directories specified with `gtroff''s or `groff''s `-M'
+ command line option.
+
+ * The directories given in the `GROFF_TMAC_PATH' environment
+ variable.
+
+ * The current directory (only if in unsafe mode using the `-U'
+ command line switch).
+
+ * The home directory.
+
+ * A platform-dependent directory, a site-specific
+ (platform-independent) directory, and the main tmac directory; the
+ default locations are
+
+
+ /usr/local/lib/groff/site-tmac
+ /usr/local/share/groff/site-tmac
+ /usr/local/share/groff/1.18/tmac
+
+ assuming that the version of `groff' is 1.18, and the installation
+ prefix was `/usr/local'. It is possible to fine-tune those
+ directories during the installation process.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Font Directories, Next: Invocation Examples, Prev: Macro Directories, Up: Invoking groff
+
+Font Directories
+================
+
+ Basically, there is no restriction how font files for `groff' are
+named and how long font names are; however, to make the font family
+mechanism work (*note Font Families::), fonts within a family should
+start with the family name, followed by the shape. For example, the
+Times family uses `T' for the family name and `R', `B', `I', and `BI'
+to indicate the shapes `roman', `bold', `italic', and `bold italic',
+respectively. Thus the final font names are `TR', `TB', `TI', and
+`TBI'.
+
+ All font files are kept in the "font directories" which constitute
+the "font path". The file search functions will always append the
+directory `dev'NAME, where NAME is the name of the output device.
+Assuming, say, DVI output, and `/foo/bar' as a font directory, the font
+files for `grodvi' must be in `/foo/bar/devdvi'.
+
+ The elements of the search path for font files are (in that order):
+
+ * The directories specified with `gtroff''s or `groff''s `-F'
+ command line option. All device drivers and some preprocessors
+ also have this option.
+
+ * The directories given in the `GROFF_FONT_PATH' environment
+ variable.
+
+ * A site-specific directory and the main font directory; the default
+ locations are
+
+
+ /usr/local/share/groff/site-font
+ /usr/local/share/groff/1.18/font
+
+ assuming that the version of `groff' is 1.18, and the installation
+ prefix was `/usr/local'. It is possible to fine-tune those
+ directories during the installation process.

+Invocation Examples
+===================
+
+ This section lists several common uses of `groff' and the
+corresponding command lines.
+
+
+ groff file
+
+This command processes `file' without a macro package or a
+preprocessor. The output device is the default, `ps', and the output
+is sent to `stdout'.
+
+
+ groff -t -mandoc -Tascii file | less
+
+This is basically what a call to the `man' program does. `gtroff'
+processes the manual page `file' with the `mandoc' macro file (which in
+turn either calls the `man' or the `mdoc' macro package), using the
+`tbl' preprocessor and the ASCII output device. Finally, the `less'
+pager displays the result.
+
+
+ groff -X -m me file
+
+Preview `file' with `gxditview', using the `me' macro package. Since
+no `-T' option is specified, use the default device (`ps'). Note that
+you can either say `-m me' or `-me'; the latter is an anachronism from
+the early days of UNIX.(1) (*note Invocation Examples-Footnote-1::)
+
+
+ groff -man -rD1 -z file
+
+Check `file' with the `man' macro package, forcing double-sided
+printing - don't produce any output.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* grog::
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Invocation Examples-Footnotes, Up: Invocation Examples
+
+ (1) The same is true for the other main macro packages that come
+with `groff': `man', `mdoc', `ms', `mm', and `mandoc'. This won't work
+in general; for example, to load `trace.tmac', either `-mtrace' or
+`-m trace' must be used.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: grog, Prev: Invocation Examples, Up: Invocation Examples
+
+`grog'
+------
+
+ `grog' reads files, guesses which of the `groff' preprocessors
+and/or macro packages are required for formatting them, and prints the
+`groff' command including those options on the standard output. It
+generates one or more of the options `-e', `-man', `-me', `-mm',
+`-mom', `-ms', `-mdoc', `-mdoc-old', `-p', `-R', `-g', `-G', `-s', and
+`-t'.
+
+ A special file name `-' refers to the standard input. Specifying no
+files also means to read the standard input. Any specified options are
+included in the printed command. No space is allowed between options
+and their arguments. The only options recognized are `-C' (which is
+also passed on) to enable compatibility mode, and `-v' to print the
+version number and exit.
+
+ For example,
+
+
+ grog -Tdvi paper.ms
+
+guesses the appropriate command to print `paper.ms' and then prints it
+to the command line after adding the `-Tdvi' option. For direct
+execution, enclose the call to `grog' in backquotes at the UNIX shell
+prompt:
+
+
+ `grog -Tdvi paper.ms` > paper.dvi
+
+As seen in the example, it is still necessary to redirect the output to
+something meaningful (i.e. either a file or a pager program like
+`less').

+Tutorial for Macro Users
+************************
+
+ Most users tend to use a macro package to format their papers. This
+means that the whole breadth of `groff' is not necessary for most
+people. This chapter covers the material needed to efficiently use a
+macro package.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Basics::
+* Common Features::
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Basics, Next: Common Features, Prev: Tutorial for Macro Users, Up: Tutorial for Macro Users
+
+Basics
+======
+
+ This section covers some of the basic concepts necessary to
+understand how to use a macro package.(1) (*note Basics-Footnote-1::)
+References are made throughout to more detailed information, if desired.
+
+ `gtroff' reads an input file prepared by the user and outputs a
+formatted document suitable for publication or framing. The input
+consists of text, or words to be printed, and embedded commands
+("requests" and "escapes"), which tell `gtroff' how to format the
+output. For more detail on this, see *Note Embedded Commands::.
+
+ The word "argument" is used in this chapter to mean a word or number
+which appears on the same line as a request, and which modifies the
+meaning of that request. For example, the request
+
+
+ .sp
+
+spaces one line, but
+
+
+ .sp 4
+
+spaces four lines. The number 4 is an argument to the `sp' request
+which says to space four lines instead of one. Arguments are separated
+from the request and from each other by spaces (_no_ tabs). More
+details on this can be found in *Note Request Arguments::.
+
+ The primary function of `gtroff' is to collect words from input
+lines, fill output lines with those words, justify the right-hand margin
+by inserting extra spaces in the line, and output the result. For
+example, the input:
+
+
+ Now is the time
+ for all good men
+ to come to the aid
+ of their party.
+ Four score and seven
+ years ago, etc.
+
+is read, packed onto output lines, and justified to produce:
+
+ Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party.
+ Four score and seven years ago, etc.
+
+ Sometimes a new output line should be started even though the current
+line is not yet full; for example, at the end of a paragraph. To do
+this it is possible to cause a "break", which starts a new output line.
+Some requests cause a break automatically, as normally do blank input
+lines and input lines beginning with a space.
+
+ Not all input lines are text to be formatted. Some input lines are
+requests which describe how to format the text. Requests always have a
+period (`.') or an apostrophe (`'') as the first character of the input
+line.
+
+ The text formatter also does more complex things, such as
+automatically numbering pages, skipping over page boundaries, putting
+footnotes in the correct place, and so forth.
+
+ Here are a few hints for preparing text for input to `gtroff'.
+
+ * First, keep the input lines short. Short input lines are easier to
+ edit, and `gtroff' packs words onto longer lines anyhow.
+
+ * In keeping with this, it is helpful to begin a new line after every
+ comma or phrase, since common corrections are to add or delete
+ sentences or phrases.
+
+ * End each sentence with two spaces - or better, start each sentence
+ on a new line. `gtroff' recognizes characters that usually end a
+ sentence, and inserts sentence space accordingly.
+
+ * Do not hyphenate words at the end of lines - `gtroff' is smart
+ enough to hyphenate words as needed, but is not smart enough to
+ take hyphens out and join a word back together. Also, words such
+ as "mother-in-law" should not be broken over a line, since then a
+ space can occur where not wanted, such as "mother- in-law".
+
+ `gtroff' double-spaces output text automatically if you use the
+request `.ls 2'. Reactivate single-spaced mode by typing `.ls 1'.(2)
+(*note Basics-Footnote-2::)
+
+ A number of requests allow to change the way the output looks,
+sometimes called the "layout" of the output page. Most of these
+requests adjust the placing of "whitespace" (blank lines or spaces).
+
+ The `bp' request starts a new page, causing a line break.
+
+ The request `.sp N' leaves N lines of blank space. N can be omitted
+(meaning skip a single line) or can be of the form Ni (for N inches) or
+Nc (for N centimeters). For example, the input:
+
+
+ .sp 1.5i
+ My thoughts on the subject
+ .sp
+
+leaves one and a half inches of space, followed by the line "My
+thoughts on the subject", followed by a single blank line (more
+measurement units are available, see *Note Measurements::).
+
+ Text lines can be centered by using the `ce' request. The line
+after `ce' is centered (horizontally) on the page. To center more than
+one line, use `.ce N' (where N is the number of lines to center),
+followed by the N lines. To center many lines without counting them,
+type:
+
+
+ .ce 1000
+ lines to center
+ .ce 0
+
+The `.ce 0' request tells `groff' to center zero more lines, in other
+words, stop centering.
+
+ All of these requests cause a break; that is, they always start a new
+line. To start a new line without performing any other action, use
+`br'.

+
+Common Features
+===============
+
+ `gtroff' provides very low-level operations for formatting a
+document. There are many common routine operations which are done in
+all documents. These common operations are written into "macros" and
+collected into a "macro package".
+
+ All macro packages provide certain common capabilities which fall
+into the following categories.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* Paragraphs::
+* Sections and Chapters::
+* Headers and Footers::
+* Page Layout Adjustment::
+* Displays::
+* Footnotes and Annotations::
+* Table of Contents::
+* Indices::
+* Paper Formats::
+* Multiple Columns::
+* Font and Size Changes::
+* Predefined Strings::
+* Preprocessor Support::
+* Configuration and Customization::
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Paragraphs, Next: Sections and Chapters, Prev: Common Features, Up: Common Features
+
+Paragraphs
+----------
+
+ One of the most common and most used capability is starting a
+paragraph. There are a number of different types of paragraphs, any of
+which can be initiated with macros supplied by the macro package.
+Normally, paragraphs start with a blank line and the first line
+indented, like the text in this manual. There are also block style
+paragraphs, which omit the indentation:
+
+
+ Some men look at constitutions with sanctimonious
+ reverence, and deem them like the ark of the covenant, too
+ sacred to be touched.
+
+And there are also indented paragraphs which begin with a tag or label
+at the margin and the remaining text indented.
+
+
+ one This is the first paragraph. Notice how the first
+ line of the resulting paragraph lines up with the
+ other lines in the paragraph.
+
+
+ longlabel
+ This paragraph had a long label. The first
+ character of text on the first line does not line up
+ with the text on second and subsequent lines,
+ although they line up with each other.
+
+ A variation of this is a bulleted list.
+
+
+ . Bulleted lists start with a bullet. It is possible
+ to use other glyphs instead of the bullet. In nroff
+ mode using the ASCII character set for output, a dot
+ is used instead of a real bullet.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Sections and Chapters, Next: Headers and Footers, Prev: Paragraphs, Up: Common Features
+
+Sections and Chapters
+---------------------
+
+ Most macro packages supply some form of section headers. The
+simplest kind is simply the heading on a line by itself in bold type.
+Others supply automatically numbered section heading or different
+heading styles at different levels. Some, more sophisticated, macro
+packages supply macros for starting chapters and appendices.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Headers and Footers, Next: Page Layout Adjustment, Prev: Sections and Chapters, Up: Common Features
+
+Headers and Footers
+-------------------
+
+ Every macro package gives some way to manipulate the "headers" and
+"footers" (also called "titles") on each page. This is text put at the
+top and bottom of each page, respectively, which contain data like the
+current page number, the current chapter title, and so on. Its
+appearance is not affected by the running text. Some packages allow
+for different ones on the even and odd pages (for material printed in a
+book form).
+
+ The titles are called "three-part titles", that is, there is a
+left-justified part, a centered part, and a right-justified part. An
+automatically generated page number may be put in any of these fields
+with the `%' character (see *Note Page Layout::, for more details).
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Page Layout Adjustment, Next: Displays, Prev: Headers and Footers, Up: Common Features
+
+Page Layout
+-----------
+
+ Most macro packages let the user specify top and bottom margins and
+other details about the appearance of the printed pages.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Displays, Next: Footnotes and Annotations, Prev: Page Layout Adjustment, Up: Common Features
+
+Displays
+--------
+
+ "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.
+
+ "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.
+
+ A "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.
+
+ A "keep" is a display of lines which are kept on a single page if
+possible. An example for a keep might be a diagram. Keeps differ from
+lists in that lists may be broken over a page boundary whereas keeps are
+not.
+
+ "Floating keeps" move relative to the text. Hence, they are good for
+things which are referred to by name, such as "See figure 3". A
+floating keep appears at the bottom of the current page if it fits;
+otherwise, it appears at the top of the next page. Meanwhile, the
+surrounding text `flows' around the keep, thus leaving no blank areas.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Footnotes and Annotations, Next: Table of Contents, Prev: Displays, Up: Common Features
+
+Footnotes and Annotations
+-------------------------
+
+ There are a number of requests to save text for later printing.
+
+ "Footnotes" are printed at the bottom of the current page.
+
+ "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.
+
+ Most macro packages which supply this functionality also supply a
+means of automatically numbering either type of annotation.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Table of Contents, Next: Indices, Prev: Footnotes and Annotations, Up: Common Features
+
+Table of Contents
+-----------------
+
+ "Tables of contents" are a type of delayed text having a tag
+(usually the page number) attached to each entry after a row of dots.
+The table accumulates throughout the paper until printed, usually after
+the paper has ended. Many macro packages provide the ability to have
+several tables of contents (e.g. a standard table of contents, a list
+of tables, etc).
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Indices, Next: Paper Formats, Prev: Table of Contents, Up: Common Features
+
+Indices
+-------
+
+ While some macro packages use the term "index", none actually
+provide that functionality. The facilities they call indices are
+actually more appropriate for tables of contents.
+
+ To produce a real index in a document, external tools like the
+`makeindex' program are necessary.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Paper Formats, Next: Multiple Columns, Prev: Indices, Up: Common Features
+
+Paper Formats
+-------------
+
+ Some macro packages provide stock formats for various kinds of
+documents. Many of them provide a common format for the title and
+opening pages of a technical paper. The `mm' macros in particular
+provide formats for letters and memoranda.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Multiple Columns, Next: Font and Size Changes, Prev: Paper Formats, Up: Common Features
+
+Multiple Columns
+----------------
+
+ Some macro packages (but not `man') provide the ability to have two
+or more columns on a page.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Font and Size Changes, Next: Predefined Strings, Prev: Multiple Columns, Up: Common Features
+
+Font and Size Changes
+---------------------
+
+ The built-in font and size functions are not always intuitive, so all
+macro packages provide macros to make these operations simpler.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Predefined Strings, Next: Preprocessor Support, Prev: Font and Size Changes, Up: Common Features
+
+Predefined Strings
+------------------
+
+ Most macro packages provide various predefined strings for a variety
+of uses; examples are sub- and superscripts, printable dates, quotes and
+various special characters.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Preprocessor Support, Next: Configuration and Customization, Prev: Predefined Strings, Up: Common Features
+
+Preprocessor Support
+--------------------
+
+ All macro packages provide support for various preprocessors and may
+extend their functionality.
+
+ For example, all macro packages mark tables (which are processed with
+`gtbl') by placing them between `TS' and `TE' macros. The `ms' macro
+package has an option, `.TS H', that prints a caption at the top of a
+new page (when the table is too long to fit on a single page).
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Configuration and Customization, Prev: Preprocessor Support, Up: Common Features
+
+Configuration and Customization
+-------------------------------
+
+ Some macro packages provide means of customizing many of the details
+of how the package behaves. This ranges from setting the default type
+size to changing the appearance of section headers.

+
+Options
+-------
+
+ The command line format for using the `man' macros with `groff' is:
+
+
+ groff -m man [ -rLL=LENGTH ] [ -rLT=LENGTH ]
+ [ -rcR=1 ] [ -rC1 ] [ -rD1 ] [ -rPNNN ]
+ [ -rSXX ] [ -rXNNN ] [ FILES... ]
+
+It is possible to use `-man' instead of `-m man'.
+
+`-rLL=LENGTH'
+ Set line length to LENGTH. If not specified, the line length
+ defaults to 78 en in nroff mode (this is 78 characters per line)
+ and 6.5 inch otherwise.
+
+`-rLT=LENGTH'
+ Set title length to LENGTH. If not specified, the title length
+ defaults to 78 en in nroff mode (this is 78 characters per line)
+ and 6.5 inch otherwise.
+
+`-rcR=1'
+ This option (the default if a TTY output device is used) creates a
+ single, very long page instead of multiple pages. Use `-rcR=0' to
+ disable it.
+
+`-rC1'
+ If more than one manual page is given on the command line, number
+ the pages continuously, rather than starting each at 1.
+
+`-rD1'
+ Double-sided printing. Footers for even and odd pages are
+ formatted differently.
+
+`-rPNNN'
+ Page numbering starts with NNN rather than with 1.
+
+`-rSXX'
+ Use XX (which can be 10, 11, or 12pt) as the base document font
+ size instead of the default value of 10pt.
+
+`-rXNNN'
+ After page NNN, number pages as NNNa, NNNb, NNNc, etc. For
+ example, the option `-rX2' produces the following page numbers: 1,
+ 2, 2a, 2b, 2c, etc.

+
+Usage
+-----
+
+ This section describes the available macros for manual pages. For
+further customization, put additional macros and requests into the file
+`man.local' which is loaded immediately after the `man' package.
+
+ - Macro: .TH title section [extra1 [extra2 [extra3]]]
+ Set the title of the man page to TITLE and the section to SECTION,
+ which must have a value between 1 and 8. The value of SECTION may
+ also have a string appended, e.g. `.pm', to indicate a specific
+ subsection of the man pages.
+
+ Both TITLE and SECTION are positioned at the left and right in the
+ header line (with SECTION in parentheses immediately appended to
+ TITLE. EXTRA1 is positioned in the middle of the footer line.
+ EXTRA2 is positioned at the left in the footer line (or at the
+ left on even pages and at the right on odd pages if double-sided
+ printing is active). EXTRA3 is centered in the header line.
+
+ For HTML output, headers and footers are completely suppressed.
+
+ Additionally, this macro starts a new page; the new line number
+ is 1 again (except if the `-rC1' option is given on the command
+ line) - this feature is intended only for formatting multiple man
+ pages; a single man page should contain exactly one `TH' macro at
+ the beginning of the file.
+
+ - Macro: .SH [heading]
+ Set up an unnumbered section heading sticking out to the left.
+ Prints out all the text following `SH' up to the end of the line
+ (or the text in the next line if there is no argument to `SH') in
+ bold face, one size larger than the base document size.
+ Additionally, the left margin for the following text is reset to
+ its default value.
+
+ - Macro: .SS [heading]
+ Set up an unnumbered (sub)section heading. Prints out all the text
+ following `SS' up to the end of the line (or the text in the next
+ line if there is no argument to `SS') in bold face, at the same
+ size as the base document size. Additionally, the left margin for
+ the following text is reset to its default value.
+
+ - Macro: .TP [nnn]
+ Set up an indented paragraph with label. The indentation is set to
+ NNN if that argument is supplied (the default unit is `n' if
+ omitted), otherwise it is set to the default indentation value.
+
+ The first line of text following this macro is interpreted as a
+ string to be printed flush-left, as it is appropriate for a label.
+ It is not interpreted as part of a paragraph, so there is no
+ attempt to fill the first line with text from the following input
+ lines. Nevertheless, if the label is not as wide as the
+ indentation, then the paragraph starts at the same line (but
+ indented), continuing on the following lines. If the label is
+ wider than the indentation, then the descriptive part of the
+ paragraph begins on the line following the label, entirely
+ indented. Note that neither font shape nor font size of the label
+ is set to a default value; on the other hand, the rest of the text
+ has default font settings.
+
+ - Macro: .LP
+ - Macro: .PP
+ - Macro: .P
+ These macros are mutual aliases. Any of them causes a line break
+ at the current position, followed by a vertical space downwards by
+ the amount specified by the `PD' macro. The font size and shape
+ are reset to the default value (10pt roman if no `-rS' option is
+ given on the command line). Finally, the current left margin is
+ restored.
+
+ - Macro: .IP [designator [nnn]]
+ Set up an indented paragraph, using DESIGNATOR as a tag to mark
+ its beginning. The indentation is set to NNN if that argument is
+ supplied (default unit is `n'), otherwise the default indentation
+ value is used. Font size and face of the paragraph (but not the
+ designator) are reset to their default values. To start an
+ indented paragraph with a particular indentation but without a
+ designator, use `""' (two double quotes) as the first argument of
+ `IP'.
+
+ For example, to start a paragraph with bullets as the designator
+ and 4 en indentation, write
+
+
+ .IP \(bu 4
+
+
+ - Macro: .HP [nnn]
+ Set up a paragraph with hanging left indentation. The indentation
+ is set to NNN if that argument is supplied (default unit is `n'),
+ otherwise the default indentation value is used. Font size and
+ face are reset to their default values.
+
+ - Macro: .RS [nnn]
+ Move the left margin to the right by the value NNN if specified
+ (default unit is `n'); otherwise the default indentation value is
+ used. Calls to the `RS' macro can be nested.
+
+ - Macro: .RE [nnn]
+ Move the left margin back to level NNN; if no argument is given,
+ it moves one level back. The first level (i.e., no call to `RS'
+ yet) has number 1, and each call to `RS' increases the level by 1.
+
+ To summarize, the following macros cause a line break with the
+insertion of vertical space (which amount can be changed with the `PD'
+macro): `SH', `SS', `TP', `LP' (`PP', `P'), `IP', and `HP'.
+
+ The macros `RS' and `RE' also cause a break but do not insert
+vertical space.
+
+ Finally, the macros `SH', `SS', `LP' (`PP', `P'), and `RS' reset the
+indentation to its default value.

+
+Macros to set fonts
+-------------------
+
+ The standard font is roman; the default text size is 10 point. If
+command line option `-rS=N' is given, use Npt as the default text size.
+
+ - Macro: .SM [text]
+ Set the text on the same line or the text on the next line in a
+ font that is one point size smaller than the default font.
+
+ - Macro: .SB [text]
+ Set the text on the same line or the text on the next line in bold
+ face font, one point size smaller than the default font.
+
+ - Macro: .BI text
+ Set its arguments alternately in bold face and italic. Thus,
+
+
+ .BI this "word and" that
+
+ would set "this" and "that" in bold face, and "word and" in
+ italics.
+
+ - Macro: .IB text
+ Set its arguments alternately in italic and bold face.
+
+ - Macro: .RI text
+ Set its arguments alternately in roman and italic.
+
+ - Macro: .IR text
+ Set its arguments alternately in italic and roman.
+
+ - Macro: .BR text
+ Set its arguments alternately in bold face and roman.
+
+ - Macro: .RB text
+ Set its arguments alternately in roman and bold face.
+
+ - Macro: .B [text]
+ Set TEXT in bold face. If no text is present on the line where
+ the macro is called, then the text of the next line appears in bold
+ face.
+
+ - Macro: .I [text]
+ Set TEXT in italic. If no text is present on the line where the
+ macro is called, then the text of the next line appears in italic.

+
+Miscellaneous macros
+--------------------
+
+ The default indentation is 7.2 en for all output devices except for
+`grohtml' which ignores indentation.
+
+ - Macro: .DT
+ Set tabs every 0.5 inches. Since this macro is always executed
+ during a call to the `TH' macro, it makes sense to call it only if
+ the tab positions have been changed.
+
+ - Macro: .PD [nnn]
+ Adjust the empty space before a new paragraph (or section). The
+ optional argument gives the amount of space (default unit is `v');
+ without parameter, the value is reset to its default value (1 line
+ for TTY devices, 0.4v otherwise).
+
+ This affects the macros `SH', `SS', `TP', `LP' (as well as `PP' and
+`P'), `IP', and `HP'.

+Predefined strings
+------------------
+
+ The following strings are defined:
+
+ - String: \*[S]
+ Switch back to the default font size.
+
+ - String: \*[R]
+ The `registered' sign.
+
+ - String: \*[Tm]
+ The `trademark' sign.
+
+ - String: \*[lq]
+ - String: \*[rq]
+ Left and right quote. This is equal to `\(lq' and `\(rq',
+ respectively.

+Preprocessors in `man' pages
+----------------------------
+
+ If a preprocessor like `gtbl' or `geqn' is needed, it has become
+common usage to make the first line of the man page look like this:
+
+
+ '\" WORD
+
+Note the single space character after the double quote. WORD consists
+of letters for the needed preprocessors: `e' for `geqn', `r' for
+`grefer', `t' for `gtbl'. Modern implementations of the `man' program
+read this first line and automatically call the right preprocessor(s).

+
+Introduction to `ms'
+--------------------
+
+ The original `-ms' macros were included with AT&T `troff' as well as
+the `man' macros. While the `man' package is intended for brief
+documents that can be read on-line as well as printed, the `ms' macros
+are suitable for longer documents that are meant to be printed rather
+than read on-line.
+
+ The `ms' macro package included with `groff' is a complete,
+bottom-up re-implementation. Several macros (specific to AT&T or
+Berkeley) are not included, while several new commands are. *Note
+Differences from AT&T ms::, for more information.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: General ms Structure, Next: ms Document Control Registers, Prev: ms Intro, Up: ms
+
+General structure of an `ms' document
+-------------------------------------
+
+ The `ms' macro package expects a certain amount of structure, but
+not as much as packages such as `man' or `mdoc'.
+
+ The simplest documents can begin with a paragraph macro (such as
+`LP' or `PP'), and consist of text separated by paragraph macros or
+even blank lines. Longer documents have a structure as follows:
+
+*Document type*
+ If you invoke the `RP' (report) macro on the first line of the
+ document, `groff' prints the cover page information on its own
+ page; otherwise it prints the information on the first page with
+ your document text immediately following. Other document formats
+ found in AT&T `troff' are specific to AT&T or Berkeley, and are
+ not supported in `groff'.
+
+*Format and layout*
+ By setting number registers, you can change your document's type
+ (font and size), margins, spacing, headers and footers, and
+ footnotes. *Note ms Document Control Registers::, for more
+ details.
+
+*Cover page*
+ A cover page consists of a title, the author's name and
+ institution, an abstract, and the date. (1) (*note General ms
+ Structure-Footnote-1::) *Note ms Cover Page Macros::, for more
+ details.
+
+*Body*
+ Following the cover page is your document. You can use the `ms'
+ macros to write reports, letters, books, and so forth. The
+ package is designed for structured documents, consisting of
+ paragraphs interspersed with headings and augmented by lists,
+ footnotes, tables, and other common constructs. *Note ms Body
+ Text::, for more details.
+
+*Table of contents*
+ Longer documents usually include a table of contents, which you
+ can invoke by placing the `TC' macro at the end of your document.
+ The `ms' macros have minimal indexing facilities, consisting of the
+ `IX' macro, which prints an entry on standard error. Printing the
+ table of contents at the end is necessary since `groff' is a
+ single-pass text formatter, thus it cannot determine the page
+ number of each section until that section has actually been set
+ and printed. Since `ms' output is intended for hardcopy, you can
+ manually relocate the pages containing the table of contents
+ between the cover page and the body text after printing.

+
+Document control registers
+--------------------------
+
+ The following is a list of document control number registers. For
+the sake of consistency, set registers related to margins at the
+beginning of your document, or just after the `RP' macro. You can set
+other registers later in your document, but you should keep them
+together at the beginning to make them easy to find and edit as
+necessary.
+
+Margin Settings
+...............
+
+ - Register: \n[PO]
+ Defines the page offset (i.e. the left margin). There is no
+ explicit right margin setting; the combination of the `PO' and
+ `LL' registers implicitly define the right margin width.
+
+ Effective: next page.
+
+ Default value: 1i.
+
+ - Register: \n[LL]
+ Defines the line length (i.e. the width of the body text).
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 6i.
+
+ - Register: \n[LT]
+ Defines the title length (i.e. the header and footer width). This
+ is usually the same as `LL', but not necessarily.
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 6i.
+
+ - Register: \n[HM]
+ Defines the header margin height at the top of the page.
+
+ Effective: next page.
+
+ Default: 1i.
+
+ - Register: \n[FM]
+ Defines the footer margin height at the bottom of the page.
+
+ Effective: next page.
+
+ Default: 1i.
+
+Text Settings
+.............
+
+ - Register: \n[PS]
+ Defines the point size of the body text.
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 10p.
+
+ - Register: \n[VS]
+ Defines the space between lines (line height plus leading).
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 12p.
+
+Paragraph Settings
+..................
+
+ - Register: \n[PI]
+ Defines the initial indent of a `.PP' paragraph.
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 5n.
+
+ - Register: \n[PD]
+ Defines the space between paragraphs.
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 0.3v.
+
+ - Register: \n[QI]
+ Defines the indent on both sides of a quoted (`.QP') paragraph.
+
+ Effective: next paragraph.
+
+ Default: 5n.
+
+Footnote Settings
+.................
+
+ - Register: \n[FL]
+ Defines the length of a footnote.
+
+ Effective: next footnote.
+
+ Default: `\n[LL]' * 5 / 6.
+
+ - Register: \n[FI]
+ Defines the footnote indent.
+
+ Effective: next footnote.
+
+ Default: 2n.
+
+ - Register: \n[FF]
+ The footnote format:
+ `0'
+ Prints the footnote number as a superscript; indents the
+ footnote (default).
+
+ `1'
+ Prints the number followed by a period (like 1.) and indents
+ the footnote.
+
+ `2'
+ Like 1, without an indent.
+
+ `3'
+ Like 1, but prints the footnote number as a hanging paragraph.
+
+ Effective: next footnote.
+
+ Default: 0.
+
+Miscellaneous Number Registers
+..............................
+
+ - Register: \n[MINGW]
+ Defines the minimum width between columns in a multi-column
+ document.
+
+ Effective: next page.
+
+ Default: 2n.

+
+Cover page macros
+-----------------
+
+ Use the following macros to create a cover page for your document in
+the order shown.
+
+ - Macro: .RP [`no']
+ Specifies the report format for your document. The report format
+ creates a separate cover page. The default action (no `.RP'
+ macro) is to print a subset of the cover page on page 1 of your
+ document.
+
+ If you use the word `no' as an optional argument, `groff' prints a
+ title page but does not repeat any of the title page information
+ (title, author, abstract, etc.) on page 1 of the document.
+
+ - Macro: .DA [...]
+ (optional) Print the current date, or the arguments to the macro
+ if any, on the title page (if specified) and in the footers. This
+ is the default for `nroff'.
+
+ - Macro: .ND [...]
+ (optional) Print the current date, or the arguments to the macro
+ if any, on the title page (if specified) but not in the footers.
+ This is the default for `troff'.
+
+ - Macro: .TL
+ Specifies the document title. `groff' collects text following the
+ `.TL' macro into the title, until reaching the author name or
+ abstract.
+
+ - Macro: .AU
+ Specifies the author's name, which appears on the line (or lines)
+ immediately following. You can specify multiple authors as
+ follows:
+
+
+ .AU
+ John Doe
+ .AI
+ University of West Bumblefuzz
+ .AU
+ Martha Buck
+ .AI
+ Monolithic Corporation
+
+ ...
+
+
+ - Macro: .AI
+ Specifies the author's institution. You can specify multiple
+ institutions in the same way that you specify multiple authors.
+
+ - Macro: .AB [`no']
+ Begins the abstract. The default is to print the word ABSTRACT,
+ centered and in italics, above the text of the abstract. The word
+ `no' as an optional argument suppresses this heading.
+
+ - Macro: .AE
+ End the abstract.
+
+ The following is example mark-up for a title page.

+
+Headings
+........
+
+ Use headings to create a hierarchical structure for your document.
+The `ms' macros print headings in *bold*, using the same font family
+and point size as the body text.
+
+ The following describes the heading macros:
+
+ - Macro: .NH curr-level
+ - Macro: .NH S level0 ...
+ Numbered heading. The argument is either a numeric argument to
+ indicate the level of the heading, or the letter `S' followed by
+ numeric arguments to set the heading level explicitly.
+
+ If you specify heading levels out of sequence, such as invoking
+ `.NH 3' after `.NH 1', `groff' prints a warning on standard error.
+
+ - Macro: .SH
+ Unnumbered subheading.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Highlighting in ms, Next: Lists in ms, Prev: Headings in ms, Up: ms Body Text
+
+Highlighting
+............
+
+ The `ms' macros provide a variety of methods to highlight or
+emphasize text:
+
+ - Macro: .B [txt [post [pre]]]
+ Sets its first argument in *bold type*. If you specify a second
+ argument, `groff' prints it in the previous font after the bold
+ text, with no intervening space (this allows you to set
+ punctuation after the highlighted text without highlighting the
+ punctuation). Similarly, it prints the third argument (if any) in
+ the previous font *before* the first argument. For example,
+
+
+ .B foo ) (
+
+ prints (*foo*).
+
+ If you give this macro no arguments, `groff' prints all text
+ following in bold until the next highlighting, paragraph, or
+ heading macro.
+
+ - Macro: .R [txt [post [pre]]]
+ Sets its first argument in roman (or regular) type. It operates
+ similarly to the `B' macro otherwise.
+
+ - Macro: .I [txt [post [pre]]]
+ Sets its first argument in _italic type_. It operates similarly
+ to the `B' macro otherwise.
+
+ - Macro: .CW [txt [post [pre]]]
+ Sets its first argument in a `constant width face'. It operates
+ similarly to the `B' macro otherwise.
+
+ - Macro: .BI [txt [post [pre]]]
+ Sets its first argument in bold italic type. It operates
+ similarly to the `B' macro otherwise.
+
+ - Macro: .BX [txt]
+ Prints its argument and draws a box around it. If you want to box
+ a string that contains spaces, use a digit-width space (`\0').
+
+ - Macro: .UL [txt [post]]
+ Prints its first argument with an underline. If you specify a
+ second argument, `groff' prints it in the previous font after the
+ underlined text, with no intervening space.
+
+ - Macro: .LG
+ Prints all text following in larger type (two points larger than
+ the current point size) until the next font size, highlighting,
+ paragraph, or heading macro. You can specify this macro multiple
+ times to enlarge the point size as needed.
+
+ - Macro: .SM
+ Prints all text following in smaller type (two points smaller than
+ the current point size) until the next type size, highlighting,
+ paragraph, or heading macro. You can specify this macro multiple
+ times to reduce the point size as needed.
+
+ - Macro: .NL
+ Prints all text following in the normal point size (that is, the
+ value of the `PS' register).
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Lists in ms, Next: Indents in ms, Prev: Highlighting in ms, Up: ms Body Text
+
+Lists
+.....
+
+ The `.IP' macro handles duties for all lists.
+
+ - Macro: .IP [marker [width]]
+ The MARKER is usually a bullet glyph (`\[bu]') for unordered
+ lists, a number (or auto-incrementing number register) for
+ numbered lists, or a word or phrase for indented (glossary-style)
+ lists.
+
+ The WIDTH specifies the indent for the body of each list item; its
+ default unit is `n'. Once specified, the indent remains the same
+ for all list items in the document until specified again.
+
+ The following is an example of a bulleted list.
+
+
+ A bulleted list:
+ .IP \[bu] 2
+ lawyers
+ .IP \[bu]
+ guns
+ .IP \[bu]
+ money
+
+ Produces:
+
+
+ A bulleted list:
+
+ o lawyers
+
+ o guns
+
+ o money
+
+
+ The following is an example of a numbered list.
+
+
+ .nr step 1 1
+ A numbered list:
+ .IP \n[step] 3
+ lawyers
+ .IP \n+[step]
+ guns
+ .IP \n+[step]
+ money
+
+ Produces:
+
+
+ A numbered list:
+
+ 1. lawyers
+
+ 2. guns
+
+ 3. money
+
+ Note the use of the auto-incrementing number register in this
+example.
+
+
+ The following is an example of a glossary-style list.
+
+
+ A glossary-style list:
+ .IP lawyers 0.4i
+ Two or more attorneys.
+ .IP guns
+ Firearms, preferably
+ large-caliber.
+ .IP money
+ Gotta pay for those
+ lawyers and guns!
+
+ Produces:
+
+
+ A glossary-style list:
+
+ lawyers
+ Two or more attorneys.
+
+ guns Firearms, preferably large-caliber.
+
+ money
+ Gotta pay for those lawyers and guns!
+
+ In the last example, the `IP' macro places the definition on the
+same line as the term if it has enough space; otherwise, it breaks to
+the next line and starts the definition below the term. This may or
+may not be the effect you want, especially if some of the definitions
+break and some do not. The following examples show two possible ways
+to force a break.
+
+ The first workaround uses the `br' request to force a break after
+printing the term or label.
+
+
+ A glossary-style list:
+ .IP lawyers 0.4i
+ Two or more attorneys.
+ .IP guns
+ .br
+ Firearms, preferably large-caliber.
+ .IP money
+ Gotta pay for those lawyers and guns!
+
+
+ The second workaround uses the `\p' escape to force the break. Note
+the space following the escape; this is important. If you omit the
+space, `groff' prints the first word on the same line as the term or
+label (if it fits) *then* breaks the line.
+
+
+ A glossary-style list:
+ .IP lawyers 0.4i
+ Two or more attorneys.
+ .IP guns
+ \p Firearms, preferably large-caliber.

+
+ To set nested lists, use the `RS' and `RE' macros. *Note Indents in

+Indents
+.......
+
+ In many situations, you may need to indent a section of text while
+still wrapping and filling. *Note Lists in ms::, for an example of
+nested lists.
+
+ - Macro: .RS
+ - Macro: .RE
+ These macros begin and end an indented section. The `PI' register
+ controls the amount of indent, allowing the indented text to line
+ up under hanging and indented paragraphs.
+
+ *Note ms Displays and Keeps::, for macros to indent and turn off
+filling.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Tabstops in ms, Next: ms Displays and Keeps, Prev: Indents in ms, Up: ms Body Text
+
+Tab Stops
+.........
+
+ Use the `ta' request to define tab stops as needed. *Note Tabs and
+Fields::.
+
+ - Macro: .TA
+ Use this macro to reset the tab stops to the default for `ms'
+ (every 5n). You can redefine the `TA' macro to create a different
+ set of default tab stops.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: ms Displays and Keeps, Next: ms Insertions, Prev: Tabstops in ms, Up: ms Body Text
+
+Displays and keeps
+..................
+
+ Use displays to show text-based examples or figures (such as code
+listings).
+
+ Displays turn off filling, so lines of code are displayed as-is
+without inserting `br' requests in between each line. Displays can be
+"kept" on a single page, or allowed to break across pages.
+
+ - Macro: .DS L
+ - Macro: .LD
+ - Macro: .DE
+ Left-justified display. The `.DS L' call generates a page break,
+ if necessary, to keep the entire display on one page. The `LD'
+ macro allows the display to break across pages. The `DE' macro
+ ends the display.
+
+ - Macro: .DS I
+ - Macro: .ID
+ - Macro: .DE
+ Indents the display as defined by the `DI' register. The `.DS I'
+ call generates a page break, if necessary, to keep the entire
+ display on one page. The `ID' macro allows the display to break
+ across pages. The `DE' macro ends the display.
+
+ - Macro: .DS B
+ - Macro: .BD
+ - Macro: .DE
+ Sets a block-centered display: the entire display is
+ left-justified, but indented so that the longest line in the
+ display is centered on the page. The `.DS B' call generates a
+ page break, if necessary, to keep the entire display on one page.
+ The `BD' macro allows the display to break across pages. The `DE'
+ macro ends the display.
+
+ - Macro: .DS C
+ - Macro: .CD
+ - Macro: .DE
+ Sets a centered display: each line in the display is centered.
+ The `.DS C' call generates a page break, if necessary, to keep the
+ entire display on one page. The `CD' macro allows the display to
+ break across pages. The `DE' macro ends the display.
+
+ - Macro: .DS R
+ - Macro: .RD
+ - Macro: .DE
+ Right-justifies each line in the display. The `.DS R' call
+ generates a page break, if necessary, to keep the entire display
+ on one page. The `RD' macro allows the display to break across
+ pages. The `DE' macro ends the display.
+
+
+ On occasion, you may want to "keep" other text together on a page.
+For example, you may want to keep two paragraphs together, or a
+paragraph that refers to a table (or list, or other item) immediately
+following. The `ms' macros provide the `KS' and `KE' macros for this
+purpose.
+
+ - Macro: .KS
+ - Macro: .KE
+ The `KS' macro begins a block of text to be kept on a single page,
+ and the `KE' macro ends the block.
+
+ - Macro: .KF
+ - Macro: .KE
+ Specifies a "floating keep"; if the keep cannot fit on the current
+ page, `groff' holds the contents of the keep and allows text
+ following the keep (in the source file) to fill in the remainder of
+ the current page. When the page breaks, whether by an explicit
+ `bp' request or by reaching the end of the page, `groff' prints
+ the floating keep at the top of the new page. This is useful for
+ printing large graphics or tables that do not need to appear
+ exactly where specified.
+
+ You can also use the `ne' request to force a page break if there is
+not enough vertical space remaining on the page.
+
+
+ Use the following macros to draw a box around a section of text
+(such as a display).
+
+ - Macro: .B1
+ - Macro: .B2
+ Marks the beginning and ending of text that is to have a box drawn
+ around it. The `B1' macro begins the box; the `B2' macro ends it.
+ Text in the box is automatically placed in a diversion (keep).

+
+Tables, figures, equations, and references
+..........................................
+
+ The `ms' macros support the standard `groff' preprocessors: `tbl',
+`pic', `eqn', and `refer'. You mark text meant for preprocessors by
+enclosing it in pairs of tags as follows.
+
+ - Macro: .TS [`H']
+ - Macro: .TE
+ Denotes a table, to be processed by the `tbl' preprocessor. The
+ optional argument `H' to `TS' instructs `groff' to create a
+ running header with the information up to the `TH' macro. `groff'
+ prints the header at the beginning of the table; if the table runs
+ onto another page, `groff' prints the header on the next page as
+ well.
+
+ - Macro: .PS
+ - Macro: .PE
+ Denotes a graphic, to be processed by the `pic' preprocessor. You
+ can create a `pic' file by hand, using the AT&T `pic' manual
+ available on the Web as a reference, or by using a graphics
+ program such as `xfig'.
+
+ - Macro: .EQ [align]
+ - Macro: .EN
+ Denotes an equation, to be processed by the `eqn' preprocessor.
+ The optional ALIGN argument can be `C', `L', or `I' to center (the
+ default), left-justify, or indent the equation.
+
+ - Macro: .[
+ - Macro: .]
+ Denotes a reference, to be processed by the `refer' preprocessor.
+ The GNU `refer(1)' man page provides a comprehensive reference to
+ the preprocessor and the format of the bibliographic database.

+Footnotes
+.........
+
+ The `ms' macro package has a flexible footnote system. You can
+specify either numbered footnotes or symbolic footnotes (that is, using
+a marker such as a dagger symbol).
+
+ - String: \*[*]
+ Specifies the location of a numbered footnote marker in the text.
+
+ - Macro: .FS
+ - Macro: .FE
+ Specifies the text of the footnote. The default action is to
+ create a numbered footnote; you can create a symbolic footnote by
+ specifying a "mark" glyph (such as `\[dg]' for the dagger glyph)
+ in the body text and as an argument to the `FS' macro, followed by
+ the text of the footnote and the `FE' macro.

+
+ The default output from the `ms' macros provides a minimalist page

+Headers and footers
+...................
+
+ For documents that do not distinguish between odd and even pages,
+set the following strings:
+
+ - String: \*[LH]
+ - String: \*[CH]
+ - String: \*[RH]
+ Sets the left, center, and right headers.
+
+ - String: \*[LF]
+ - String: \*[CF]
+ - String: \*[RF]
+ Sets the left, center, and right footers.
+
+
+ For documents that need different information printed in the even
+and odd pages, use the following macros:
+
+ - Macro: .OH 'left'center'right'
+ - Macro: .EH 'left'center'right'
+ - Macro: .OF 'left'center'right'
+ - Macro: .EF 'left'center'right'
+ The `OH' and `EH' macros define headers for the odd and even pages;
+ the `OF' and `EF' macros define footers for the odd and even pages.
+ This is more flexible than defining the individual strings.
+
+ You can replace the quote (`'') marks with any character not
+ appearing in the header or footer text.

+
+Multiple columns
+................
+
+ The `ms' macros can set text in as many columns as will reasonably
+fit on the page. The following macros are available; all of them force
+a page break if a multi-column mode is already set. However, if the
+current mode is single-column, starting a multi-column mode does *not*
+force a page break.
+
+ - Macro: .1C
+ Single-column mode.
+
+ - Macro: .2C
+ Two-column mode.
+
+ - Macro: .MC [width [gutter]]
+ Multi-column mode. If you specify no arguments, it is equivalent
+ to the `2C' macro. Otherwise, WIDTH is the width of each column
+ and GUTTER is the space between columns. The `MINGW' number
+ register controls the default gutter width.

+
+Creating a table of contents
+............................
+
+ The facilities in the `ms' macro package for creating a table of
+contents are semi-automated at best. Assuming that you want the table
+of contents to consist of the document's headings, you need to repeat
+those headings wrapped in `XS' and `XE' macros.
+
+ - Macro: .XS [page]
+ - Macro: .XA [page]
+ - Macro: .XE
+ These macros define a table of contents or an individual entry in
+ the table of contents, depending on their use. The macros are
+ very simple; they cannot indent a heading based on its level. The
+ easiest way to work around this is to add tabs to the table of
+ contents string. The following is an example:
+
+
+ .NH 1
+ Introduction
+ .XS
+ Introduction
+ .XE
+ .LP
+ ...
+ .CW
+ .NH 2
+ Methodology
+ .XS
+ Methodology
+ .XE
+ .LP
+ ...
+
+ You can manually create a table of contents by beginning with the
+ `XS' macro for the first entry, specifying the page number for
+ that entry as the argument to `XS'. Add subsequent entries using
+ the `XA' macro, specifying the page number for that entry as the
+ argument to `XA'. The following is an example:
+
+
+ .XS 1
+ Introduction
+ .XA 2
+ A Brief History of the Universe
+ .XA 729
+ Details of Galactic Formation
+ ...
+ .XE
+
+
+ - Macro: .TC [`no']
+ Prints the table of contents on a new page, setting the page
+ number to *i* (Roman numeral one). You should usually place this
+ macro at the end of the file, since `groff' is a single-pass
+ formatter and can only print what has been collected up to the
+ point that the `TC' macro appears.
+
+ The optional argument `no' suppresses printing the title specified
+ by the string register `TOC'.
+
+ - Macro: .PX [`no']
+ Prints the table of contents on a new page, using the current page
+ numbering sequence. Use this macro to print a manually-generated
+ table of contents at the beginning of your document.
+
+ The optional argument `no' suppresses printing the title specified
+ by the string register `TOC'.
+
+ The `Groff and Friends HOWTO' includes a `sed' script that
+automatically inserts `XS' and `XE' macro entries after each heading in
+a document.
+
+ Altering the `NH' macro to automatically build the table of contents
+is perhaps initially more difficult, but would save a great deal of
+time in the long run if you use `ms' regularly.
+

+Strings and Special Characters
+..............................
+
+ The `ms' macros provide the following predefined strings. You can
+change the string definitions to help in creating documents in
+languages other than English.
+
+ - String: \*[REFERENCES]
+ Contains the string printed at the beginning of the references
+ (bibliography) page. The default is `References'.
+
+ - String: \*[ABSTRACT]
+ Contains the string printed at the beginning of the abstract. The
+ default is `ABSTRACT'.
+
+ - String: \*[TOC]
+ Contains the string printed at the beginning of the table of

+ - String: \*[MONTH9]
+ - String: \*[MONTH10]
+ - String: \*[MONTH11]
+ - String: \*[MONTH12]
+ Prints the full name of the month in dates. The default is
+ `January', `February', etc.
+
+ The following special characters are available(1) (*note ms Strings
+and Special Characters-Footnote-1::):
+
+ - String: \*[-]
+ Prints an em dash.
+
+ - String: \*[*Q]
+ - String: \*[*U]
+ Prints typographer's quotes in troff, plain quotes in nroff. `*Q'

+Text
+====
+
+ `gtroff' input files contain text with control commands interspersed
+throughout. But, even without control codes, `gtroff' still does
+several things with the input text:
+
+ * filling and adjusting
+
+ * adding additional space after sentences
+
+ * hyphenating
+
+ * inserting implicit line breaks

+File: groff, Node: Filling and Adjusting, Next: Hyphenation, Prev: Text, Up: Text
+
+Filling and Adjusting
+---------------------
+
+ When `gtroff' reads text, it collects words from the input and fits
+as many of them together on one output line as it can. This is known as
+"filling".
+
+ Once `gtroff' has a "filled" line, it tries to "adjust" it. This
+means it widens the spacing between words until the text reaches the
+right margin (in the default adjustment mode). Extra spaces between
+words are preserved, but spaces at the end of lines are ignored.
+Spaces at the front of a line cause a "break" (breaks are explained in
+*Note Implicit Line Breaks::).
+
+ *Note Manipulating Filling and Adjusting::.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Hyphenation, Next: Sentences, Prev: Filling and Adjusting, Up: Text
+
+Hyphenation
+-----------
+
+ Since the odds are not great for finding a set of words, for every
+output line, which fit nicely on a line without inserting excessive
+amounts of space between words, `gtroff' hyphenates words so that it
+can justify lines without inserting too much space between words. It
+uses an internal hyphenation algorithm (a simplified version of the
+algorithm used within TeX) to indicate which words can be hyphenated
+and how to do so. When a word is hyphenated, the first part of the
+word is added to the current filled line being output (with an attached
+hyphen), and the other portion is added to the next line to be filled.
+
+ *Note Manipulating Hyphenation::.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Sentences, Next: Tab Stops, Prev: Hyphenation, Up: Text
+
+Sentences
+---------
+
+ Although it is often debated, some typesetting rules say there
+should be different amounts of space after various punctuation marks.
+For example, the `Chicago typsetting manual' says that a period at the
+end of a sentence should have twice as much space following it as would
+a comma or a period as part of an abbreviation.
+
+ `gtroff' does this by flagging certain characters (normally `!',
+`?', and `.') as "end-of-sentence" characters. When `gtroff'
+encounters one of these characters at the end of a line, it appends a
+normal space followed by a "sentence space" in the formatted output.
+(This justifies one of the conventions mentioned in *Note Input
+Conventions::.)
+
+ In addition, the following characters and symbols are treated
+transparently while handling end-of-sentence characters: `"', `'', `)',
+`]', `*', `\[dg]', and `\[rq]'.
+
+ See the `cflags' request in *Note Using Symbols::, for more details.
+
+ To prevent the insertion of extra space after an end-of-sentence
+character (at the end of a line), append `\&'.

+(normally code point ASCII `0x09' or EBCDIC `0x05'), in the input into
+movements to the next tabulator stop. These tab stops are initially
+located every half inch across the page. Using this, simple tables can
+be made easily. However, it can often be deceptive as the appearance
+(and width) of the text on a terminal and the results from `gtroff' can
+vary greatly.
+
+ Also, a possible sticking point is that lines beginning with tab
+characters are still filled, again producing unexpected results. For
+example, the following input
+
+ 1 2 3
+ 4 5
+
+produces
+
+ 1 2 3 4 5

+
+Implicit Line Breaks
+--------------------
+
+ An important concept in `gtroff' is the "break". When a break
+occurs, `gtroff' outputs the partially filled line (unjustified), and
+resumes collecting and filling text on the next output line.
+
+ There are several ways to cause a break in `gtroff'. A blank line
+not only causes a break, but it also outputs a one-line vertical space
+(effectively a blank line). Note that this behaviour can be modified
+with the blank line macro request `blm'. *Note Blank Line Traps::.
+
+ A line that begins with a space causes a break and the space is
+output at the beginning of the next line. Note that this space isn't
+adjusted, even in fill mode.
+
+ The end of file also causes a break - otherwise the last line of the
+document may vanish!
+
+ Certain requests also cause breaks, implicitly or explicitly. This
+is discussed in *Note Manipulating Filling and Adjusting::.

+Input Conventions
+=================
+
+ Since `gtroff' does filling automatically, it is traditional in
+`groff' not to try and type things in as nicely formatted paragraphs.
+These are some conventions commonly used when typing `gtroff' text:
+
+ * Break lines after punctuation, particularly at the end of a
+ sentence and in other logical places. Keep separate phrases on
+ lines by themselves, as entire phrases are often added or deleted
+ when editing.
+
+ * Try to keep lines less than 40-60 characters, to allow space for
+ inserting more text.
+
+ * Do not try to do any formatting in a WYSIWYG manner (i.e., don't
+ try using spaces to get proper indentation).

+
+Measurements
+============
+
+ `gtroff' (like many other programs) requires numeric parameters to
+specify various measurements. Most numeric parameters(1) (*note
+Measurements-Footnote-1::) may have a "measurement unit" attached.
+These units are specified as a single character which immediately
+follows the number or expression. Each of these units are understood,
+by `gtroff', to be a multiple of its "basic unit". So, whenever a
+different measurement unit is specified `gtroff' converts this into its
+"basic units". This basic unit, represented by a `u', is a device
+dependent measurement which is quite small, ranging from 1/75th to
+1/72000th of an inch. The values may be given as fractional numbers;
+however, fractional basic units are always rounded to integers.
+
+ Some of the measurement units are completely independent of any of
+the current settings (e.g. type size) of `gtroff'.
+
+`i'
+ Inches. An antiquated measurement unit still in use in certain
+ backwards countries with incredibly low-cost computer equipment.
+ One inch is equal to 2.54cm.
+
+`c'
+ Centimeters. One centimeter is equal to 0.3937in.
+
+`p'
+ Points. This is a typesetter's measurement used for measure type
+ size. It is 72 points to an inch.
+
+`P'
+ Pica. Another typesetting measurement. 6 Picas to an inch (and
+ 12 points to a pica).
+
+`s'
+`z'
+ *Note Fractional Type Sizes::, for a discussion of these units.
+
+`f'
+ Fractions. Value is 65536. *Note Colors::, for usage.
+
+ The other measurements understood by `gtroff' depend on settings
+currently in effect in `gtroff'. These are very useful for specifying
+measurements which should look proper with any size of text.
+
+`m'
+ Ems. This unit is equal to the current font size in points. So
+ called because it is _approximately_ the width of the letter `m'
+ in the current font.
+
+`n'
+ Ens. In `groff', this is half of an em.
+
+`v'
+ Vertical space. This is equivalent to the current line spacing.
+ *Note Sizes::, for more information about this.
+
+`M'
+ 100ths of an em.
+

+
+* Default Units::

+File: groff, Node: Default Units, Prev: Measurements, Up: Measurements
+
+Default Units
+-------------
+
+ Many requests take a default unit. While this can be helpful at
+times, it can cause strange errors in some expressions. For example,
+the line length request expects em units. Here are several attempts to
+get a line length of 3.5 inches and their results:
+
+
+ 3.5i => 3.5i
+ 7/2 => 0i
+ 7/2i => 0i
+ (7 / 2)u => 0i
+ 7i/2 => 0.1i
+ 7i/2u => 3.5i
+
+Everything is converted to basic units first. In the above example it
+is assumed that 1i equals 240u, and 1m equals 10p (thus 1m equals 33u).
+The value 7i/2 is first handled as 7i/2m, then converted to 1680u/66u
+which is 25u, and this is approximately 0.1i. As can be seen, a
+scaling indicator after a closing parenthesis is simply ignored.
+
+ Thus, the safest way to specify measurements is to always attach a
+scaling indicator. If you want to multiply or divide by a certain
+scalar value, use `u' as the unit for that value.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Expressions, Next: Identifiers, Prev: Measurements, Up: gtroff Reference
+
+Expressions
+===========
+
+ `gtroff' has most arithmetic operators common to other languages:
+
+ * Arithmetic: `+' (addition), `-' (subtraction), `/' (division), `*'
+ (multiplication), `%' (modulo).
+
+ `gtroff' only provides integer arithmetic. The internal type used
+ for computing results is `int', which is usually a 32bit signed
+ integer.
+
+ * Comparison: `<' (less than), `>' (greater than), `<=' (less than
+ or equal), `>=' (greater than or equal), `=' (equal), `==' (the
+ same as `=').
+
+ * Logical: `&' (logical and), `:' (logical or).
+
+ * Unary operators: `-' (negating, i.e. changing the sign), `+' (just
+ for completeness; does nothing in expressions), `!' (logical not;
+ this works only within `if' and `while' requests). See below for
+ the use of unary operators in motion requests.
+
+ * Extrema: `>?' (maximum), `<?' (minimum).
+
+ Example:
+
+
+ .nr x 5
+ .nr y 3
+ .nr z (\n[x] >? \n[y])
+
+ The register `z' now contains 5.
+
+ * Scaling: `(C;E)'. Evaluate E using C as the default scaling
+ indicator. If C is missing, ignore scaling indicators in the
+ evaluation of E.
+
+ Parentheses may be used as in any other language. However, in
+`gtroff' they are necessary to ensure order of evaluation. `gtroff'
+has no operator precedence; expressions are evaluated left to right.
+This means that `gtroff' evaluates `3+5*4' as if it were parenthesized
+like `(3+5)*4', not as `3+(5*4)', as might be expected.
+
+ For many requests which cause a motion on the page, the unary
+operators `+' and `-' work differently if leading an expression. They
+then indicate a motion relative to the current position (down or up,
+respectively).
+
+ Similarly, a leading `|' operator indicates an absolute position.
+For vertical movements, it specifies the distance from the top of the
+page; for horizontal movements, it gives the distance from the beginning
+of the _input_ line.
+
+ `+' and `-' are also treated differently by the following requests
+and escapes: `bp', `in', `ll', `lt', `nm', `nr', `pl', `pn', `po', `ps',
+`pvs', `rt', `ti', `\H', `\R', and `\s'. Here, leading plus and minus
+signs indicate increments and decrements.
+
+ *Note Setting Registers::, for some examples.
+
+ - Escape: \B'ANYTHING'
+ Return 1 if ANYTHING is a valid numeric expression; or 0 if
+ ANYTHING is empty or not a valid numeric expression.
+
+ Due to the way arguments are parsed, spaces are not allowed in
+expressions, unless the entire expression is surrounded by parentheses.
+
+ *Note Request Arguments::, and *Note Conditionals and Loops::.
+

+File: groff, Node: Identifiers, Next: Embedded Commands, Prev: Expressions, Up: gtroff Reference
+
+Identifiers
+===========
+
+ Like any other language, `gtroff' has rules for properly formed
+"identifiers". In `gtroff', an identifier can be made up of almost any
+printable character, with the exception of the following characters:
+
+ * Whitespace characters (spaces, tabs, and newlines).
+
+ * Backspace (ASCII `0x08' or EBCDIC `0x16') and character code
+ `0x01'.
+
+ * The following input characters are invalid and are ignored if
+ `groff' runs on a machine based on ASCII, causing a warning
+ message of type `input' (see *Note Debugging::, for more details):
+ `0x00', `0x0B', `0x0D'-`0x1F', `0x80'-`0x9F'.
+
+ And here are the invalid input characters if `groff' runs on an
+ EBCDIC host: `0x00', `0x08', `0x09', `0x0B', `0x0D'-`0x14',
+ `0x17'-`0x1F', `0x30'-`0x3F'.
+
+ Currently, some of these reserved codepoints are used internally,
+ thus making it non-trivial to extend `gtroff' to cover Unicode or
+ other character sets and encodings which use characters of these
+ ranges.
+
+ Note that invalid characters are removed before parsing; an
+ identifier `foo', followed by an invalid character, followed by
+ `bar' is treated as `foobar'.
+
+ For example, any of the following is valid.
+
+
+ br
+ PP
+ (l
+ end-list
+ @_
+
+Note that identifiers longer than two characters with a closing bracket
+(`]') in its name can't be accessed with escape sequences which expect
+an identifier as a parameter. For example, `\[foo]]' accesses the
+glyph `foo', followed by `]', whereas `\C'foo]'' really asks for glyph
+`foo]'.
+
+ To avoid problems with the `refer' preprocessor, macro names should
+not start with `[' or `]'. Due to backwards compatibility, everything
+after `.[' and `.]' is handled as a special argument to `refer'. For
+example, `.[foo' makes `refer' to start a reference, using `foo' as a
+parameter.
+
+ - Escape: \A'IDENT'
+ Test whether an identifier IDENT is valid in `gtroff'. It expands
+ to the character 1 or 0 according to whether its argument (usually
+ delimited by quotes) is or is not acceptable as the name of a
+ string, macro, diversion, number register, environment, or font.
+ It returns 0 if no argument is given. This is useful for looking
+ up user input in some sort of associative table.
+
+
+ \A'end-list'
+ => 1
+
+
+ *Note Escapes::, for details on parameter delimiting characters.
+
+ Identifiers in `gtroff' can be any length, but, in some contexts,
+`gtroff' needs to be told where identifiers end and text begins (and in
+different ways depending on their length):
+
+ * Single character.
+
+ * Two characters. Must be prefixed with `(' in some situations.
+
+ * Arbitrary length (`gtroff' only). Must be bracketed with `['
+ and `]' in some situations. Any length identifier can be put in
+ brackets.
+
+ Unlike many other programming languages, undefined identifiers are
+silently ignored or expanded to nothing. When `gtroff' finds an
+undefined identifier, it emits a warning, doing the following:
+
+ * If the identifier is a string, macro, or diversion, `gtroff'
+ defines it as empty.
+
+ * If the identifier is a number register, `gtroff' defines it with a
+ value of 0.
+
+ *Note Warnings::., *Note Interpolating Registers::, and *Note
+Strings::.
+
+ Note that macros, strings, and diversions share the same name space.
+
+
+ .de xxx
+ . nop foo
+ ..
+ .
+ .di xxx
+ bar
+ .br
+ .di
+ .
+ .xxx
+ => bar
+
+As can be seen in the previous example, `gtroff' reuses the identifier
+`xxx', changing it from a macro to a diversion. No warning is emitted!
+The contents of the first macro definition is lost.
+
+ *Note Interpolating Registers::, and *Note Strings::.

+Embedded Commands
+=================
+
+ Most documents need more functionality beyond filling, adjusting and
+implicit line breaking. In order to gain further functionality,
+`gtroff' allows commands to be embedded into the text, in two ways.
+
+ The first is a "request" which takes up an entire line, and does
+some large-scale operation (e.g. break lines, start new pages).
+
+ The other is an "escape" which can be usually embedded anywhere in
+the text; most requests can accept it even as an argument. Escapes
+generally do more minor operations like sub- and superscripts, print a
+symbol, etc.

+* Escapes::
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Requests, Next: Macros, Prev: Embedded Commands, Up: Embedded Commands
+
+Requests
+--------
+
+ A request line begins with a control character, which is either a
+single quote (`'', the "no-break control character") or a period (`.',
+the normal "control character"). These can be changed; see *Note
+Character Translations::, for details. After this there may be
+optional tabs or spaces followed by an identifier which is the name of
+the request. This may be followed by any number of space-separated
+arguments (_no_ tabs here).
+
+ Since a control character followed by whitespace only is ignored, it
+is common practice to use this feature for structuring the source code
+of documents or macro packages.
+
+
+ .de foo
+ . tm This is foo.
+ ..
+ .
+ .
+ .de bar
+ . tm This is bar.
+ ..
+
+ Another possibility is to use the blank line macro request `blm' by
+assigning an empty macro to it.
+
+
+ .de do-nothing
+ ..
+ .blm do-nothing \" activate blank line macro
+
+ .de foo
+ . tm This is foo.
+ ..
+
+
+ .de bar
+ . tm This is bar.
+ ..
+
+ .blm \" deactivate blank line macro
+
+ *Note Blank Line Traps::.
+
+ To begin a line with a control character without it being
+interpreted, precede it with `\&'. This represents a zero width space,
+which means it does not affect the output.
+
+ In most cases the period is used as a control character. Several
+requests cause a break implicitly; using the single quote control
+character prevents this.

+* Request Arguments::

+
+File: groff, Node: Request Arguments, Prev: Requests, Up: Requests
+
+Request Arguments
+.................
+
+ Arguments to requests (and macros) are processed much like the shell:
+The line is split into arguments according to spaces.(1) (*note Request
+Arguments-Footnote-1::) An argument which is intended to contain
+spaces can either be enclosed in double quotes, or have the spaces
+"escaped" with backslashes.
+
+ Here are a few examples:
+
+
+ .uh The Mouse Problem
+ .uh "The Mouse Problem"
+ .uh The\ Mouse\ Problem
+
+The first line is the `uh' macro being called with 3 arguments, `The',
+`Mouse', and `Problem'. The latter two have the same effect of calling
+the `uh' macro with one argument, `The Mouse Problem'.(2) (*note
+Request Arguments-Footnote-2::)
+
+ A double quote which isn't preceded by a space doesn't start a macro
+argument. If not closing a string, it is printed literally.
+
+ For example,
+
+
+ .xxx a" "b c" "de"fg"
+
+has the arguments `a"', `b c', `de', and `fg"'. Don't rely on this
+obscure behaviour!
+
+ There are two possibilities to get a double quote reliably.
+
+ * Enclose the whole argument with double quotes and use two
+ consecutive double quotes to represent a single one. This
+ traditional solution has the disadvantage that double quotes don't
+ survive argument expansion again if called in compatibility mode
+ (using the `-C' option of `groff'):
+
+
+ .de xx
+ . tm xx: `\\$1' `\\$2' `\\$3'
+ .
+ . yy "\\$1" "\\$2" "\\$3"
+ ..
+ .de yy
+ . tm yy: `\\$1' `\\$2' `\\$3'
+ ..
+ .xx A "test with ""quotes""" .
+ => xx: `A' `test with "quotes"' `.'
+ => yy: `A' `test with ' `quotes""'
+
+ If not in compatibility mode, you get the expected result
+
+
+ xx: `A' `test with "quotes"' `.'
+ yy: `A' `test with "quotes"' `.'
+
+ since `gtroff' preserves the input level.
+
+ * Use the double quote glyph `\(dq'. This works with and without
+ compatibility mode enabled since `gtroff' doesn't convert `\(dq'
+ back to a double quote input character.
+
+ Not that this method won't work with UNIX `troff' in general since
+ the glyph `dq' isn't defined normally.
+
+ Double quotes in the `ds' request are handled differently. *Note
+Strings::, for more details.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Request Arguments-Footnotes, Up: Request Arguments
+
+ (1) Plan 9's `troff' implementation also allows tabs for argument
+separation - `gtroff' intentionally doesn't support this.
+
+ (2) The last solution, i.e., using escaped spaces, is "classical" in
+the sense that it can be found in most `troff' documents.
+Nevertheless, it is not optimal in all situations, since `\ ' inserts a
+fixed-width, non-breaking space character which can't stretch.
+`gtroff' provides a different command `\~' to insert a stretchable,
+non-breaking space.
+

+
+Macros
+------
+
+ `gtroff' has a "macro" facility for defining a series of lines which
+can be invoked by name. They are called in the same manner as requests
+- arguments also may be passed in the same manner.
+
+ *Note Writing Macros::, and *Note Request Arguments::.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Escapes, Prev: Macros, Up: Embedded Commands
+
+Escapes
+-------
+
+ Escapes may occur anywhere in the input to `gtroff'. They usually
+begin with a backslash and are followed by a single character which
+indicates the function to be performed. The escape character can be
+changed; see *Note Character Translations::.
+
+ Escape sequences which require an identifier as a parameter accept
+three possible syntax forms.
+
+ * The next single character is the identifier.
+
+ * If this single character is an opening parenthesis, take the
+ following two characters as the identifier. Note that there is no
+ closing parenthesis after the identifier.
+
+ * If this single character is an opening bracket, take all characters
+ until a closing bracket as the identifier.
+
+Examples:
+
+
+ \fB
+ \n(XX
+ \*[TeX]
+
+ Other escapes may require several arguments and/or some special
+format. In such cases the argument is traditionally enclosed in single
+quotes (and quotes are always used in this manual for the definitions
+of escape sequences). The enclosed text is then processed according to
+what that escape expects. Example:
+
+
+ \l'1.5i\(bu'
+
+ Note that the quote character can be replaced with any other
+character which does not occur in the argument (even a newline or a
+space character) in the following escapes: `\o', `\b', and `\X'. This
+makes e.g.
+
+
+ A caf
+ \o
+ e\'
+
+
+ in Paris
+ => A cafe' in Paris
+
+possible, but it is better not to use this feature to avoid confusion.
+
+ The following escapes sequences (which are handled similarly to
+characters since they don't take a parameter) are also allowed as
+delimiters: `\%', `\ ', `\|', `\^', `\{', `\}', `\'', `\`', `\-', `\_',
+`\!', `\?', `\@', `\)', `\/', `\,', `\&', `\:', `\~', `\0', `\a', `\c',
+`\d', `\e', `\E', `\p', `\r', `\t', and `\u'. Again, don't use these
+if possible.
+
+ No newline characters as delimiters are allowed in the following
+escapes: `\A', `\B', `\Z', `\C', and `\w'.
+
+ Finally, the escapes `\D', `\h', `\H', `\l', `\L', `\N', `\R', `\s',
+`\S', `\v', and `\x' can't use the following characters as delimiters:
+
+ * The digits `0'-`9'.
+
+ * The (single-character) operators `+-/*%<>=&:().'.
+
+ * The space, tab, and newline characters.
+
+ * All escape sequences except `\%', `\:', `\{', `\}', `\'', `\`',
+ `\-', `\_', `\!', `\@', `\/', `\c', `\e', and `\p'.
+
+ To have a backslash (actually, the current escape character) appear
+in the output several escapes are defined: `\\', `\e' or `\E'. These
+are very similar, and only differ with respect to being used in macros
+or diversions. *Note Character Translations::, for an exact
+description of those escapes.

+
+Comments
+........
+
+ Probably one of the most(1) (*note Comments-Footnote-1::) common
+forms of escapes is the comment.
+
+ - Escape: \"
+ Start a comment. Everything to the end of the input line is
+ ignored.
+
+ This may sound simple, but it can be tricky to keep the comments
+ from interfering with the appearance of the final output.
+
+ If the escape is to the right of some text or a request, that
+ portion of the line is ignored, but the space leading up to it is
+ noticed by `gtroff'. This only affects the `ds' and `as' request
+ and its variants.
+
+ One possibly irritating idiosyncracy is that tabs must not be used
+ to line up comments. Tabs are not treated as whitespace between
+ the request and macro arguments.
+
+ A comment on a line by itself is treated as a blank line, because
+ after eliminating the comment, that is all that remains:
+
+
+ Test
+ \" comment
+ Test
+
+ produces
+
+
+ Test
+
+ Test
+
+ To avoid this, it is common to start the line with `.\"' which
+ causes the line to be treated as an undefined request and thus
+ ignored completely.
+
+ Another commenting scheme seen sometimes is three consecutive
+ single quotes (`'''') at the beginning of a line. This works, but
+ `gtroff' gives a warning about an undefined macro (namely `'''),
+ which is harmless, but irritating.
+
+ - Escape: \#
+ To avoid all this, `gtroff' has a new comment mechanism using the
+ `\#' escape. This escape works the same as `\"' except that the
+ newline is also ignored:
+
+
+ Test
+ \# comment
+ Test
+
+ produces
+
+
+ Test Test
+
+ as expected.
+
+ - Request: .ig yy
+ Ignore all input until `gtroff' encounters the macro named `.'YY
+ on a line by itself (or `..' if YY is not specified). This is
+ useful for commenting out large blocks of text:
+
+
+ text text text...
+ .ig
+ This is part of a large block
+ of text that has been
+ temporarily(?) commented out.
+
+ We can restore it simply by removing
+ the .ig request and the ".." at the
+ end of the block.
+ ..
+ More text text text...
+
+ produces
+
+
+ text text text... More text text text...
+
+ Note that the commented-out block of text does not cause a break.
+
+ The input is read in copy-mode; auto-incremented registers _are_
+ affected (*note Auto-increment::).

+
+Setting Registers
+-----------------
+
+ Define or set registers using the `nr' request or the `\R' escape.
+
+ - Request: .nr ident value
+ - Escape: \R'IDENT VALUE'
+ Set number register IDENT to VALUE. If IDENT doesn't exist,
+ `gtroff' creates it.
+
+ The argument to `\R' usually has to be enclosed in quotes. *Note
+ Escapes::, for details on parameter delimiting characters.
+
+ The `\R' escape doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'; with
+ other words, it vanishes completely after `gtroff' has processed
+ it.
+
+ For example, the following two lines are equivalent:
+
+
+ .nr a (((17 + (3 * 4))) % 4)
+ \R'a (((17 + (3 * 4))) % 4)'
+ => 1
+
+ Both `nr' and `\R' have two additional special forms to increment or
+decrement a register.
+
+ - Request: .nr ident +value
+ - Request: .nr ident -value
+ - Escape: \R'IDENT +VALUE'
+ - Escape: \R'IDENT -VALUE'
+ Increment (decrement) register IDENT by VALUE.
+
+
+ .nr a 1
+ .nr a +1
+ \na
+ => 2
+
+ To assign the negated value of a register to another register,
+ some care must be taken to get the desired result:
+
+
+ .nr a 7
+ .nr b 3

+ IDENT2 doesn't exist, the request is ignored.
+
+ - Request: .aln ident1 ident2
+ Create an alias IDENT1 for a number register IDENT2. The new name
+ and the old name are exactly equivalent. If IDENT1 is undefined,
+ a warning of type `reg' is generated, and the request is ignored.

+Interpolating Registers
+-----------------------
+
+ Numeric registers can be accessed via the `\n' escape.
+
+ - Escape: \nI
+ - Escape: \n(ID
+ - Escape: \n[IDENT]
+ Interpolate number register with name IDENT (one-character name I,
+ two-character name ID). This means that the value of the register
+ is expanded in-place while `gtroff' is parsing the input line.
+ Nested assignments (also called indirect assignments) are possible.

+
+Auto-increment
+--------------
+
+ Number registers can also be auto-incremented and auto-decremented.
+The increment or decrement value can be specified with a third argument
+to the `nr' request or `\R' escape.
+
+ - Request: .nr ident value incr
+ Set number register IDENT to VALUE; the increment for
+ auto-incrementing is set to INCR. Note that the `\R' escape
+ doesn't support this notation.
+
+ To activate auto-incrementing, the escape `\n' has a special syntax
+form.
+
+ - Escape: \n+I
+ - Escape: \n-I
+ - Escape: \n(+ID
+ - Escape: \n(-ID
+ - Escape: \n+(ID
+ - Escape: \n-(ID
+ - Escape: \n[+IDENT]
+ - Escape: \n[-IDENT]
+ - Escape: \n+[IDENT]
+ - Escape: \n-[IDENT]
+ Before interpolating, increment or decrement IDENT (one-character
+ name I, two-character name ID) by the auto-increment value as
+ specified with the `nr' request (or the `\R' escape). If no
+ auto-increment value has been specified, these syntax forms are
+ identical to `\n'.
+
+ For example,
+
+
+ .nr a 0 1
+ .nr xx 0 5
+ .nr foo 0 -2
+ \n+a, \n+a, \n+a, \n+a, \n+a
+ .br

+ .br
+ \n+[foo], \n+[foo], \n+[foo], \n+[foo], \n+[foo]

+
+ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
+ -5, -10, -15, -20, -25
+ -2, -4, -6, -8, -10
+
+ To change the increment value without changing the value of a
+register (A in the example), the following can be used:
+
+
+ .nr a \na 10

+
+File: groff, Node: Assigning Formats, Next: Built-in Registers, Prev: Auto-increment, Up: Registers
+
+Assigning Formats
+-----------------
+
+ When a register is used in the text of an input file (as opposed to
+part of an expression), it is textually replaced (or interpolated) with
+a representation of that number. This output format can be changed to
+a variety of formats (numbers, Roman numerals, etc.). This is done
+using the `af' request.
+
+ - Request: .af ident format
+ Change the output format of a number register. The first argument
+ IDENT is the name of the number register to be changed, and the
+ second argument FORMAT is the output format. The following output
+ formats are available:
+
+ `1'
+ Decimal arabic numbers. This is the default format: 0, 1, 2,
+ 3, ....
+
+ `0...0'
+ Decimal numbers with as many digits as specified. So, `00'
+ would result in printing numbers as 01, 02, 03, ....
+
+ In fact, any digit instead of zero will do; `gtroff' only
+ counts how many digits are specified. As a consequence,
+ `af''s default format `1' could be specified as `0' also (and
+ exactly this is returned by the `\g' escape, see below).
+
+ `I'
+ Upper-case Roman numerals: 0, I, II, III, IV, ....
+
+ `i'
+ Lower-case Roman numerals: 0, i, ii, iii, iv, ....
+
+ `A'
+ Upper-case letters: 0, A, B, C, ..., Z, AA, AB, ....
+
+ `a'
+ Lower-case letters: 0, a, b, c, ..., z, aa, ab, ....
+
+ Omitting the number register format causes a warning of type
+ `missing'. *Note Debugging::, for more details. Specifying a
+ nonexistent format causes an error.
+
+ The following example produces `10, X, j, 010':
+
+
+ .nr a 10
+ .af a 1 \" the default format
+ \na,
+ .af a I
+ \na,
+ .af a a
+ \na,
+ .af a 001
+ \na
+
+ The largest number representable for the `i' and `I' formats is
+ 39999 (or -39999); UNIX `troff' uses `z' and `w' to represent
+ 10000 and 5000 in Roman numerals, and so does `gtroff'.
+ Currently, the correct glyphs of Roman numeral five thousand and
+ Roman numeral ten thousand (Unicode code points `U+2182' and
+ `U+2181', respectively) are not available.
+
+ If IDENT doesn't exist, it is created.
+
+ Changing the output format of a read-only register causes an
+ error. It is necessary to first copy the register's value to a
+ writeable register, then apply the `af' request to this other
+ register.
+
+ - Escape: \gI
+ - Escape: \g(ID
+ - Escape: \g[IDENT]
+ Return the current format of the specified register IDENT
+ (one-character name I, two-character name ID). For example, `\ga'
+ after the previous example would produce the string `000'. If the
+ register hasn't been defined yet, nothing is returned.

+Built-in Registers

+
+ The following lists some built-in registers which are not described

+`.F'
+ This string-valued register returns the current input file name.
+
+`.H'
+ Horizontal resolution in basic units.

+ at start-up of `gtroff'.
+
+`minutes'
+ The number of minutes after the hour, in the range 0 to 59.
+ Initialized at start-up of `gtroff'.

+ Current month (1-12).
+
+`year'
+ The current year.
+
+`yr'
+ The current year minus 1900. Unfortunately, the documentation of
+ UNIX Version 7's `troff' had a year 2000 bug: It incorrectly
+ claimed that `yr' contains the last two digits of the year. That
+ claim has never been true of either AT&T `troff' or GNU `troff'.
+ Old `troff' input that looks like this:
+
+
+ '\" The following line stopped working after 1999
+ This document was formatted in 19\n(yr.

+
+Manipulating Filling and Adjusting
+==================================
+
+ Various ways of causing "breaks" were given in *Note Implicit Line
+Breaks::. The `br' request likewise causes a break. Several other
+requests also cause breaks, but implicitly. These are `bp', `ce',
+`cf', `fi', `fl', `in', `nf', `rj', `sp', `ti', and `trf'.
+
+ - Request: .br
+ Break the current line, i.e., the input collected so far is emitted
+ without adjustment.
+
+ If the no-break control character is used, `gtroff' suppresses the
+ break:
+
+
+ a
+ 'br
+ b
+ => a b
+
+
+ Initially, `gtroff' fills and adjusts text to both margins. Filling
+can be disabled via the `nf' request and re-enabled with the `fi'
+request.
+
+ - Request: .fi
+ - Register: \n[.u]
+ Activate fill mode (which is the default). This request implicitly
+ enables adjusting; it also inserts a break in the text currently
+ being filled. The read-only number register `.u' is set to 1.
+
+ The fill mode status is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+ See *Note Line Control::, for interaction with the `\c' escape.
+
+ - Request: .nf
+ Activate no-fill mode. Input lines are output as-is, retaining
+ line breaks and ignoring the current line length. This command
+ implicitly disables adjusting; it also causes a break. The number
+ register `.u' is set to 0.
+
+ The fill mode status is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+ See *Note Line Control::, for interaction with the `\c' escape.
+
+ - Request: .ad [mode]
+ - Register: \n[.j]
+ Set adjusting mode.
+
+ Activation and deactivation of adjusting is done implicitly with
+ calls to the `fi' or `nf' requests.
+
+ MODE can have one of the following values:
+
+ `l'
+ Adjust text to the left margin. This produces what is
+ traditionally called ragged-right text.
+
+ `r'
+ Adjust text to the right margin, producing ragged-left text.
+
+ `c'
+ Center filled text. This is different to the `ce' request
+ which only centers text without filling.
+
+ `b'
+ `n'
+ Justify to both margins. This is the default used by
+ `gtroff'.
+
+ With no argument, `gtroff' adjusts lines in the same way it did
+ before adjusting was deactivated (with a call to `na', for
+ example).
+
+
+ text
+ .ad r
+ text
+ .ad c
+ text
+ .na
+ text
+ .ad \" back to centering
+ text
+
+ The current adjustment mode is available in the read-only number
+ register `.j'; it can be stored and subsequently used to set
+ adjustment.
+
+ The adjustment mode status is associated with the current
+ environment (*note Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .na
+ Disable adjusting. This request won't change the current
+ adjustment mode: A subsequent call to `ad' uses the previous
+ adjustment setting.
+
+ The adjustment mode status is associated with the current
+ environment (*note Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .brp
+ - Escape: \p
+ Adjust the current line and cause a break.
+
+ In most cases this produces very ugly results since `gtroff'
+ doesn't have a sophisticated paragraph building algorithm (as TeX
+ have, for example); instead, `gtroff' fills and adjusts a paragraph
+ line by line:
+
+
+ This is an uninteresting sentence.
+ This is an uninteresting sentence.\p
+ This is an uninteresting sentence.
+
+ is formatted as
+
+
+ This is an uninteresting sentence. This is an
+ uninteresting sentence.
+ This is an uninteresting sentence.
+
+
+ - Request: .ss word_space_size [sentence_space_size]
+ - Register: \n[.ss]
+ - Register: \n[.sss]
+ Change the minimum size of a space between filled words. It takes
+ its units as one twelfth of the space width parameter for the
+ current font. Initially both the WORD_SPACE_SIZE and
+ SENTENCE_SPACE_SIZE are 12.
+
+ If two arguments are given to the `ss' request, the second
+ argument sets the sentence space size. If the second argument is
+ not given, sentence space size is set to WORD_SPACE_SIZE. The
+ sentence space size is used in two circumstances: If the end of a
+ sentence occurs at the end of a line in fill mode, then both an
+ inter-word space and a sentence space are added; if two spaces
+ follow the end of a sentence in the middle of a line, then the
+ second space is a sentence space. If a second argument is never
+ given to the `ss' request, the behaviour of UNIX `troff' is the
+ same as that exhibited by GNU `troff'. In GNU `troff', as in UNIX
+ `troff', a sentence should always be followed by either a newline
+ or two spaces.
+
+ The read-only number registers `.ss' and `.sss' hold the values of
+ the parameters set by the first and second arguments of the `ss'
+ request.
+
+ The word space and sentence space values are associated with the
+ current environment (*note Environments::).
+
+ Contrary to AT&T `troff', this request is _not_ ignored if a TTY
+ output device is used; the given values are then rounded down to a
+ multiple of 12 (*note Implementation Differences::).
+
+ The request is ignored if there is no parameter.
+
+ - Request: .ce [nnn]
+ - Register: \n[.ce]
+ Center text. While the `.ad c' request also centers text, it
+ fills the text as well. `ce' does not fill the text it affects.
+ This request causes a break. The number of lines still to be
+ centered is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ The following example demonstrates the differences. Here the
+ input:
+
+
+ .ll 4i
+ .ce 1000
+ This is a small text fragment which shows the differences
+ between the `.ce' and the `.ad c' request.
+ .ce 0
+
+ .ad c
+ This is a small text fragment which shows the differences
+ between the `.ce' and the `.ad c' request.
+
+ And here the result:
+
+
+ This is a small text fragment which
+ shows the differences
+ between the `.ce' and the `.ad c' request.
+
+ This is a small text fragment which
+ shows the differences between the `.ce'
+ and the `.ad c' request.
+
+ With no arguments, `ce' centers the next line of text. NNN
+ specifies the number of lines to be centered. If the argument is
+ zero or negative, centering is disabled.
+
+ The basic length for centering text is the line length (as set
+ with the `ll' request) minus the indentation (as set with the `in'
+ request). Temporary indentation is ignored.
+
+ As can be seen in the previous example, it is a common idiom to
+ turn on centering for a large number of lines, and to turn off
+ centering after text to be centered. This is useful for any
+ request which takes a number of lines as an argument.
+
+ The `.ce' read-only number register contains the number of lines
+ remaining to be centered, as set by the `ce' request.
+
+ - Request: .rj [nnn]
+ - Register: \n[.rj]
+ Justify unfilled text to the right margin. Arguments are
+ identical to the `ce' request. The `.rj' read-only number
+ register is the number of lines to be right-justified as set by
+ the `rj' request. This request causes a break. The number of
+ lines still to be right-justified is associated with the current
+ environment (*note Environments::).

+
+Manipulating Hyphenation
+========================
+
+ As discussed in *Note Hyphenation::, `gtroff' hyphenates words.
+There are a number of ways to influence hyphenation.
+
+ - Request: .hy [mode]
+ - Register: \n[.hy]
+ Enable hyphenation. The request has an optional numeric argument,
+ MODE, to restrict hyphenation if necessary:
+
+ `1'
+ The default argument if MODE is omitted. Hyphenate without
+ restrictions. This is also the start-up value of `gtroff'.
+
+ `2'
+ Do not hyphenate the last word on a page or column.
+
+ `4'
+ Do not hyphenate the last two characters of a word.
+
+ `8'
+ Do not hyphenate the first two characters of a word.
+
+ Values in the previous table are additive. For example, the
+ value 12 causes `gtroff' to neither hyphenate the last two nor the
+ first two characters of a word.
+
+ The current hyphenation restrictions can be found in the read-only
+ number register `.hy'.
+
+ The hyphenation mode is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .nh
+ Disable hyphenation (i.e., set the hyphenation mode to zero). Note
+ that the hyphenation mode of the last call to `hy' is not
+ remembered.
+
+ The hyphenation mode is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .hlm [nnn]
+ - Register: \n[.hlm]
+ - Register: \n[.hlc]
+ Set the maximum number of consecutive hyphenated lines to NNN. If
+ this number is negative, there is no maximum. The default value
+ is -1 if NNN is omitted. This value is associated with the
+ current environment (*note Environments::). Only lines output
+ from a given environment count towards the maximum associated with
+ that environment. Hyphens resulting from `\%' are counted;
+ explicit hyphens are not.
+
+ The current setting of `hlm' is available in the `.hlm' read-only
+ number register. Also the number of immediately preceding
+ consecutive hyphenated lines are available in the read-only number
+ register `.hlc'.
+
+ - Request: .hw word1 word2 ...
+ Define how WORD1, WORD2, etc. are to be hyphenated. The words
+ must be given with hyphens at the hyphenation points. For example:
+
+
+ .hw in-sa-lub-rious
+
+ Besides the space character, any character whose hyphenation code
+ value is zero can be used to separate the arguments of `hw' (see
+ the documentation for the `hcode' request below for more
+ information). In addition, this request can be used more than
+ once.
+
+ Hyphenation exceptions specified with the `hw' request are
+ associated with the current hyphenation language; it causes an
+ error if there is no current hyphenation language.
+
+ This request is ignored if there is no parameter.
+
+ In old versions of `troff' there was a limited amount of space to
+ store such information; fortunately, with `gtroff', this is no
+ longer a restriction.
+
+ - Escape: \%
+ - Escape: \:
+ To tell `gtroff' how to hyphenate words on the fly, use the `\%'
+ escape, also known as the "hyphenation character". Preceding a
+ word with this character prevents it from being hyphenated;
+ putting it inside a word indicates to `gtroff' that the word may
+ be hyphenated at that point. Note that this mechanism only
+ affects that one occurrence of the word; to change the hyphenation
+ of a word for the entire document, use the `hw' request.
+
+ The `\:' escape inserts a zero-width break point (that is, the
+ word breaks but without adding a hyphen).
+
+
+ ... check the /var/log/\:httpd/\:access_log file ...
+
+ Note that `\X' and `\Y' start a word, that is, the `\%' escape in
+ (say) ` \X'...'\%foobar' and ` \Y'...'\%foobar' no longer prevents
+ hyphenation but inserts a hyphenation point at the beginning of
+ `foobar'; most likely this isn't what you want to do.
+
+ - Request: .hc [char]
+ Change the hyphenation character to CHAR. This character then
+ works the same as the `\%' escape, and thus, no longer appears in
+ the output. Without an argument, `hc' resets the hyphenation
+ character to be `\%' (the default) only.
+
+ The hyphenation character is associated with the current
+ environment (*note Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .hpf pattern_file
+ - Request: .hpfa pattern_file
+ - Request: .hpfcode a b [c d ...]
+ Read in a file of hyphenation patterns. This file is searched for
+ in the same way as `NAME.tmac' (or `tmac.NAME') is searched for if
+ the `-mNAME' option is specified.
+
+ It should have the same format as (simple) TeX patterns files.
+ More specifically, the following scanning rules are implemented.
+
+ * A percent sign starts a comment (up to the end of the line)
+ even if preceded by a backslash.
+
+ * No support for `digraphs' like `\$'.
+
+ * `^^XX' (X is 0-9 or a-f) and `^^X' (character code of X in
+ the range 0-127) are recognized; other use of `^' causes an
+ error.
+
+ * No macro expansion.
+
+ * `hpf' checks for the expression `\patterns{...}' (possibly
+ with whitespace before and after the braces). Everything
+ between the braces is taken as hyphenation patterns.
+ Consequently, `{' and `}' are not allowed in patterns.
+
+ * Similarly, `\hyphenation{...}' gives a list of hyphenation
+ exceptions.
+
+ * `\endinput' is recognized also.
+
+ * For backwards compatibility, if `\patterns' is missing, the
+ whole file is treated as a list of hyphenation patterns (only
+ recognizing the `%' character as the start of a comment).
+
+ If no `hpf' request is specified (either in the document or in a
+ macro package), `gtroff' won't hyphenate at all.
+
+ The `hpfa' request appends a file of patterns to the current list.
+
+ The `hpfcode' request defines mapping values for character codes in
+ hyphenation patterns. `hpf' or `hpfa' then apply the mapping
+ (after reading the patterns) before replacing or appending them to
+ the current list of patterns. Its arguments are pairs of
+ character codes - integers from 0 to 255. The request maps
+ character code A to code B, code C to code D, and so on. You can
+ use character codes which would be invalid otherwise.
+
+ The set of hyphenation patterns is associated with the current
+ language set by the `hla' request. The `hpf' request is usually
+ invoked by the `troffrc' or `troffrc-end' file; by default,
+ `troffrc' loads hyphenation patterns for American English (in file
+ `hyphen.us').
+
+ A second call to `hpf' (for the same language) will replace the
+ hyphenation patterns with the new ones.
+
+ Invoking `hpf' causes an error if there is no current hyphenation
+ language.
+
+ - Request: .hcode c1 code1 c2 code2 ...
+ Set the hyphenation code of character C1 to CODE1, that of C2 to
+ CODE2, etc. A hyphenation code must be a single input character
+ (not a special character) other than a digit or a space.
+ Initially each lower-case letter (`a'-`z') has its hyphenation
+ code set to itself, and each upper-case letter (`A'-`Z') has a
+ hyphenation code which is the lower-case version of itself.
+
+ This request is ignored if it has no parameter.
+
+ - Request: .hym [length]
+ - Register: \n[.hym]
+ Set the (right) hyphenation margin to LENGTH. If the current

+
+ - Request: .shc [glyph]
+ Set the "soft hyphen character" to GLYPH.(1) (*note Manipulating
+ Hyphenation-Footnote-1::) If the argument is omitted, the soft
+ hyphen character is set to the default glyph `\(hy' (this is the
+ start-up value of `gtroff' also). The soft hyphen character is
+ the glyph that is inserted when a word is hyphenated at a line
+ break. If the soft hyphen character does not exist in the font of

+Manipulating Spacing
+====================
+
+ - Request: .sp [distance]
+ Space downwards DISTANCE. With no argument it advances 1 line. A
+ negative argument causes `gtroff' to move up the page the
+ specified distance. If the argument is preceded by a `|' then
+ `gtroff' moves that distance from the top of the page. This
+ request causes a line break. The default scaling indicator is `v'.
+
+ - Request: .ls [nnn]
+ - Register: \n[.L]
+ Output NNN-1 blank lines after each line of text. With no
+ argument, `gtroff' uses the previous value before the last `ls'
+ call.
+
+
+ .ls 2 \" This causes double-spaced output
+ .ls 3 \" This causes triple-spaced output
+ .ls \" Again double-spaced
+
+ The line spacing is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ The read-only number register `.L' contains the current line
+ spacing setting.
+
+ *Note Changing Type Sizes::, for the requests `vs' and `pvs' as
+alternatives to `ls'.
+
+ - Escape: \x'SPACING'
+ - Register: \n[.a]
+ Sometimes, extra vertical spacing is only needed occasionally, e.g.
+ to allow space for a tall construct (like an equation). The `\x'
+ escape does this. The escape is given a numerical argument,
+ usually enclosed in quotes (like `\x'3p''); the default scaling
+ indicator is `v'. If this number is positive extra vertical space
+ is inserted below the current line. A negative number adds space
+ above. If this escape is used multiple times on the same line,
+ the maximum of the values is used.
+
+ *Note Escapes::, for details on parameter delimiting characters.
+
+ The `.a' read-only number register contains the most recent
+ (nonnegative) extra vertical line space.
+
+ Using `\x' can be necessary in combination with the `\b' escape,
+ as the following example shows.
+
+

+ - Request: .ns

+ - Register: \n[.ns]

+ next page is also disabled, except if it is accompanied by a page
+ number (see *Note Page Control::, for more information). This
+ mode ends when actual text is output or the `rs' request is
+ encountered which ends no-space mode. The read-only number
+ register `.ns' is set to 1 as long as no-space mode is active.
+
+ This request is useful for macros that conditionally insert
+ vertical space before the text starts (for example, a paragraph

+Tabs and Fields
+===============
+
+ A tab character (ASCII char 9, EBCDIC char 5) causes a horizontal
+movement to the next tab stop (much like it did on a typewriter).
+
+ - Escape: \t
+ This escape is a non-interpreted tab character. In copy mode
+ (*note Copy-in Mode::), `\t' is the same as a real tab character.
+
+ - Request: .ta [n1 n2 ... nn T r1 r2 ... rn]
+ - Register: \n[.tabs]
+ Change tab stop positions. This request takes a series of tab
+ specifiers as arguments (optionally divided into two groups with
+ the letter `T') which indicate where each tab stop is to be
+ (overriding any previous settings).
+
+ Tab stops can be specified absolutely, i.e., as the distance from
+ the left margin. For example, the following sets 6 tab stops every
+ one inch.
+
+
+ .ta 1i 2i 3i 4i 5i 6i
+
+ Tab stops can also be specified using a leading `+' which means
+ that the specified tab stop is set relative to the previous tab
+ stop. For example, the following is equivalent to the previous
+ example.
+
+
+ .ta 1i +1i +1i +1i +1i +1i
+
+ `gtroff' supports an extended syntax to specify repeat values after
+ the `T' mark (these values are always taken as relative) - this is
+ the usual way to specify tabs set at equal intervals. The
+ following is, yet again, the same as the previous examples. It
+ does even more since it defines an infinite number of tab stops
+ separated by one inch.
+
+
+ .ta T 1i
+
+ Now we are ready to interpret the full syntax given at the
+ beginning: Set tabs at positions N1, N2, ..., NN and then set tabs
+ at NN+R1, NN+R2, ..., NN+RN and then at NN+RN+R1, NN+RN+R2, ...,
+ NN+RN+RN, and so on.
+
+ Example: `4c +6c T 3c 5c 2c' is equivalent to `4c 10c 13c 18c 20c
+ 23c 28c 30c ...'.
+
+ The material in each tab column (i.e., the column between two tab
+ stops) may be justified to the right or left or centered in the
+ column. This is specified by appending `R', `L', or `C' to the tab
+ specifier. The default justification is `L'. Example:
+
+
+ .ta 1i 2iC 3iR
+
+ Some notes:
+
+ * The default unit of the `ta' request is `m'.
+
+ * A tab stop is converted into a non-breakable horizontal
+ movement which can be neither stretched nor squeezed. For
+ example,
+
+
+ .ds foo a\tb\tc
+ .ta T 5i
+ \*[foo]
+
+ creates a single line which is a bit longer than 10 inches (a
+ string is used to show exactly where the tab characters are).
+ Now consider the following:
+
+
+ .ds bar a\tb b\tc
+ .ta T 5i
+ \*[bar]
+
+ `gtroff' first converts the tab stops of the line into
+ unbreakable horizontal movements, then splits the line after
+ the second `b' (assuming a sufficiently short line length).
+ Usually, this isn't what the user wants.
+
+ * Superfluous tabs (i.e., tab characters which do not
+ correspond to a tab stop) are ignored except the first one
+ which delimits the characters belonging to the last tab stop
+ for right-justifying or centering. Consider the following
+ example
+
+
+ .ds Z foo\tbar\tfoo
+ .ds ZZ foo\tbar\tfoobar
+ .ds ZZZ foo\tbar\tfoo\tbar
+ .ta 2i 4iR
+ \*[Z]
+ .br
+ \*[ZZ]
+ .br
+ \*[ZZZ]
+ .br
+
+ which produces the following output:
+
+
+ foo bar foo
+ foo bar foobar
+ foo bar foobar
+
+ The first line right-justifies the second `foo' relative to
+ the tab stop. The second line right-justifies `foobar'. The
+ third line finally right-justifies only `foo' because of the
+ additional tab character which marks the end of the string
+ belonging to the last defined tab stop.
+
+ * Tab stops are associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ * Calling `ta' without an argument removes all tab stops.
+
+ * The start-up value of `gtroff' is `T 0.5i' in troff mode and
+ `T 0.8i' in nroff mode (the latter is done with an explicit
+ call to the `ta' request in the file `tty.tmac'.
+
+ The read-only number register `.tabs' contains a string
+ representation of the current tab settings suitable for use as an
+ argument to the `ta' request.
+
+
+ .ds tab-string \n[.tabs]
+ \*[tab-string]
+ => T120u
+
+ The `troff' version of the Plan 9 operating system uses register
+ `.S' for the same purpose.
+
+ - Request: .tc [fill-glyph]
+ Normally `gtroff' fills the space to the next tab stop with
+ whitespace. This can be changed with the `tc' request. With no
+ argument `gtroff' reverts to using whitespace, which is the
+ default. The value of this "tab repetition character" is
+ associated with the current environment (*note Environments::).(1)
+ (*note Tabs and Fields-Footnote-1::)
+
+ - Request: .linetabs n
+ - Register: \n[.linetabs]
+ If N is missing or not zero, enable "line-tabs" mode, or disable
+ it otherwise (the default). In line-tabs mode, `gtroff' computes
+ tab distances relative to the (current) output line instead of the
+ input line.
+
+ For example, the following code:
+
+
+ .ds x a\t\c
+ .ds y b\t\c
+ .ds z c
+ .ta 1i 3i
+ \*x
+ \*y
+ \*z
+
+ in normal mode, results in the output
+
+
+ a b c
+
+ in line-tabs mode, the same code outputs
+
+
+ a b c
+
+ Line-tabs mode is associated with the current environment. The
+ read-only register `.linetabs' is set to 1 if in line-tabs mode,
+ and 0 in normal mode.

+Leaders
+-------
+
+ Sometimes it may may be desirable to use the `tc' request to fill a
+particular tab stop with a given glyph (for example dots in a table of
+contents), but also normal tab stops on the rest of the line. For this
+`gtroff' provides an alternate tab mechanism, called "leaders" which
+does just that.
+
+ A leader character (character code 1) behaves similarly to a tab
+character: It moves to the next tab stop. The only difference is that
+for this movement, the fill glyph defaults to a period character and
+not to space.
+
+ - Escape: \a
+ This escape is a non-interpreted leader character. In copy mode
+ (*note Copy-in Mode::), `\a' is the same as a real leader
+ character.
+
+ - Request: .lc [fill-glyph]
+ Declare the "leader repetition character".(1) (*note
+ Leaders-Footnote-1::) Without an argument, leaders act the same as
+ tabs (i.e., using whitespace for filling). `gtroff''s start-up
+ value is a dot (`.'). The value of the leader repetition
+ character is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ For a table of contents, to name an example, tab stops may be
+defined so that the section number is one tab stop, the title is the
+second with the remaining space being filled with a line of dots, and
+then the page number slightly separated from the dots.

+Fields
+------
+
+ "Fields" are a more general way of laying out tabular data. A field
+is defined as the data between a pair of "delimiting characters". It
+contains substrings which are separated by "padding characters". The
+width of a field is the distance on the _input_ line from the position
+where the field starts to the next tab stop. A padding character
+inserts stretchable space similar to TeX's `\hss' command (thus it can
+even be negative) to make the sum of all substring lengths plus the
+stretchable space equal to the field width. If more than one padding
+character is inserted, the available space is evenly distributed among
+them.
+
+ - Request: .fc [delim-char [padding-char]]
+ Define a delimiting and a padding character for fields. If the
+ latter is missing, the padding character defaults to a space
+ character. If there is no argument at all, the field mechanism is
+ disabled (which is the default). Note that contrary to e.g. the
+ tab repetition character, delimiting and padding characters are
+ _not_ associated to the current environment (*note Environments::).

+Character Translations
+======================
+
+ The control character (`.') and the no-break control character (`'')
+can be changed with the `cc' and `c2' requests, respectively.
+
+ - Request: .cc [c]
+ Set the control character to C. With no argument the default
+ control character `.' is restored. The value of the control
+ character is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .c2 [c]
+ Set the no-break control character to C. With no argument the
+ default control character `'' is restored. The value of the
+ no-break control character is associated with the current
+ environment (*note Environments::).
+
+ - Request: .eo
+ Disable the escape mechanism completely. After executing this
+ request, the backslash character `\' no longer starts an escape
+ sequence.
+
+ This request can be very helpful in writing macros since it is not
+ necessary then to double the escape character. Here an example:
+
+
+ .\" This is a simplified version of the
+ .\" .BR request from the man macro package
+ .eo
+ .de BR
+ . ds result \&
+ . while (\n[.$] >= 2) \{\
+ . as result \fB\$1\fR\$2
+ . shift 2
+ . \}
+ . if \n[.$] .as result \fB\$1
+ \*[result]
+ . ft R
+ ..
+ .ec
+
+
+ - Request: .ec [c]
+ Set the escape character to C. With no argument the default
+ escape character `\' is restored. It can be also used to
+ re-enable the escape mechanism after an `eo' request.
+
+ Note that changing the escape character globally will likely break
+ macro packages since `gtroff' has no mechanism to `intern' macros,
+ i.e., to convert a macro definition into an internal form which is
+ independent of its representation (TeX has this mechanism). If a
+ macro is called, it is executed literally.
+
+ - Request: .ecs
+ - Request: .ecr
+ The `ecs' request saves the current escape character in an
+ internal register. Use this request in combination with the `ec'
+ request to temporarily change the escape character.
+
+ The `ecr' request restores the escape character saved with `ecs'.
+ Without a previous call to `ecs', this request sets the escape
+ character to `\'.
+
+ - Escape: \\
+ - Escape: \e
+ - Escape: \E
+ Print the current escape character (which is the backslash
+ character `\' by default).
+
+ `\\' is a `delayed' backslash; more precisely, it is the default
+ escape character followed by a backslash, which no longer has
+ special meaning due to the leading escape character. It is _not_
+ an escape sequence in the usual sense! In any unknown escape
+ sequence `\X' the escape character is ignored and X is printed.
+ But if X is equal to the current escape character, no warning is
+ emitted.
+
+ As a consequence, only at top-level or in a diversion a backslash
+ glyph is printed; in copy-in mode, it expands to a single
+ backslash which then combines with the following character to an
+ escape sequence.
+
+ The `\E' escape differs from `\e' by printing an escape character
+ that is not interpreted in copy mode. Use this to define strings
+ with escapes that work when used in copy mode (for example, as a
+ macro argument). The following example defines strings to begin
+ and end a superscript:
+
+
+ .ds { \v'-.3m'\s'\Es[.s]*60/100'
+ .ds } \s0\v'.3m'
+
+ Another example to demonstrate the differences between the various
+ escape sequences, using a strange escape character, `-'.
+
+
+ .ec -
+ .de xxx
+ --A'123'
+ ..
+ .xxx
+ => -A'foo'
+
+ The result is surprising for most users, expecting `1' since `foo'
+ is a valid identifier. What has happened? As mentioned above,
+ the leading escape character makes the following character
+ ordinary. Written with the default escape character the sequence
+ `--' becomes `\-' - this is the minus sign.
+
+ If the escape character followed by itself is a valid escape
+ sequence, only `\E' yields the expected result:
+
+
+ .ec -
+ .de xxx
+ -EA'123'
+ ..
+ .xxx
+ => 1
+
+
+ - Escape: \.
+ Similar to `\\', the sequence `\.' isn't a real escape sequence.
+ As before, a warning message is suppressed if the escape character
+ is followed by a dot, and the dot itself is printed.
+
+
+ .de foo
+ . nop foo
+ .
+ . de bar
+ . nop bar
+ \\..
+ .
+ ..
+ .foo
+ .bar
+ => foo bar
+
+ The first backslash is consumed while the macro is read, and the
+ second is swallowed while exexuting macro `foo'.
+
+ A "translation" is a mapping of an input character to an output
+glyph. The mapping occurs at output time, i.e., the input character
+gets assigned the metric information of the mapped output character
+right before input tokens are converted to nodes (*note Gtroff
+Internals::, for more on this process).
+
+ - Request: .tr abcd...
+ - Request: .trin abcd...
+ Translate character A to glyph B, character C to glyph D, etc. If
+ there is an odd number of arguments, the last one is translated to
+ an unstretchable space (`\ ').
+
+ The `trin' request is identical to `tr', but when you unformat a
+ diversion with `asciify' it ignores the translation. *Note
+ Diversions::, for details about the `asciify' request.
+
+ Some notes:
+
+ * Special characters (`\(XX', `\[XXX]', `\C'XXX'', `\'', `\`',
+ `\-', `\_'), glyphs defined with the `char' request, and
+ numbered glyphs (`\N'XXX'') can be translated also.
+
+ * The `\e' escape can be translated also.
+
+ * Characters can be mapped onto the `\%' and `\~' escapes (but
+ `\%' and `\~' can't be mapped onto another glyph).
+
+ * The following characters can't be translated: space (with one
+ exception, see below), backspace, newline, leader (and `\a'),
+ tab (and `\t').
+
+ * Translations are not considered for finding the soft hyphen
+ character set with the `shc' request.
+
+ * The pair `C\&' (this is an arbitrary character C followed by
+ the zero width space character) maps this character to
+ nothing.
+
+
+ .tr a\&
+ foo bar
+ => foo br
+
+ It is even possible to map the space character to nothing:
+
+
+ .tr aa \&
+ foo bar
+ => foobar
+
+ As shown in the example, the space character can't be the
+ first character/glyph pair as an argument of `tr'.
+ Additionally, it is not possible to map the space character
+ to any other glyph; requests like `.tr aa x' undo `.tr aa \&'
+ instead.
+
+ If justification is active, lines are justified in spite of
+ the `empty' space character (but there is no minimal
+ distance, i.e. the space character, between words).
+
+ * After an output glyph has been constructed (this happens at
+ the moment immediately before the glyph is appended to an
+ output glyph list, either by direct output, in a macro,
+ diversion, or string), it is no longer affected by `tr'.
+
+ * Translating character to glyphs where one of them or both are
+ undefined is possible also; `tr' does not check whether the
+ entities in its argument do exist.
+
+ *Note Gtroff Internals::.
+
+ * `troff' no longer has a hard-coded dependency on Latin-1; all
+ `charXXX' entities have been removed from the font
+ description files. This has a notable consequence which
+ shows up in warnings like `can't find character with input
+ code XXX' if the `tr' request isn't handled properly.
+
+ Consider the following translation:
+
+
+ .tr e'E'
+
+ This maps input character `e'' onto glyph `E'', which is
+ identical to glyph `char201'. But this glyph intentionally
+ doesn't exist! Instead, `\[char201]' is treated as an input
+ character entity and is by default mapped onto `\['E]', and
+ `gtroff' doesn't handle translations of translations.
+
+ The right way to write the above translation is
+
+
+ .tr e'\['E]
+
+ With other words, the first argument of `tr' should be an
+ input character or entity, and the second one a glyph entity.
+
+ * Without an argument, the `tr' request is ignored.
+
+ - Request: .trnt abcd...
+ `trnt' is the same as the `tr' request except that the
+ translations do not apply to text that is transparently throughput
+ into a diversion with `\!'. *Note Diversions::, for more
+ information.
+
+ For example,
+
+
+ .tr ab
+ .di x
+ \!.tm a
+ .di
+ .x
+
+ prints `b' to the standard error stream; if `trnt' is used instead
+ of `tr' it prints `a'.

+Troff and Nroff Mode
+====================
+
+ Originally, `nroff' and `troff' were two separate programs, the
+former for TTY output, the latter for everything else. With GNU
+`troff', both programs are merged into one executable, sending its
+output to a device driver (`grotty' for TTY devices, `grops' for
+POSTSCRIPT, etc.) which interprets the intermediate output of `gtroff'.
+For UNIX `troff' it makes sense to talk about "Nroff mode" and "Troff
+mode" since the differences are hardcoded. For GNU `troff', this
+distinction is not appropriate because `gtroff' simply takes the
+information given in the font files for a particular device without
+handling requests specially if a TTY output device is used.
+
+ Usually, a macro package can be used with all output devices.
+Nevertheless, it is sometimes necessary to make a distinction between
+TTY and non-TTY devices: `gtroff' provides two built-in conditions `n'
+and `t' for the `if', `ie', and `while' requests to decide whether
+`gtroff' shall behave like `nroff' or like `troff'.
+
+ - Request: .troff
+ Make the `t' built-in condition true (and the `n' built-in
+ condition false) for `if', `ie', and `while' conditional requests.
+ This is the default if `gtroff' (_not_ `groff') is started with
+ the `-R' switch to avoid loading of the start-up files `troffrc'
+ and `troffrc-end'. Without `-R', `gtroff' stays in troff mode if
+ the output device is not a TTY (e.g. `ps').
+
+ - Request: .nroff
+ Make the `n' built-in condition true (and the `t' built-in
+ condition false) for `if', `ie', and `while' conditional requests.
+ This is the default if `gtroff' uses a TTY output device; the
+ code for switching to nroff mode is in the file `tty.tmac' which
+ is loaded by the start-up file `troffrc'.
+
+ *Note Conditionals and Loops::, for more details on built-in

+ output, defining the "left margin".
+
+`in'
+ "Indentation" - this is the distance from the left margin where
+ text is printed.
+
+`ll'
+ "Line length" - this is the distance from the left margin to right
+ margin.
+
+ A simple demonstration:
+
+
+ .ll 3i
+ This is text without indentation.
+ The line length has been set to 3\~inch.
+ .in +.5i
+ .ll -.5i
+ Now the left and right margins are both increased.
+ .in
+ .ll
+ Calling .in and .ll without parameters restore
+ the previous values.
+
+ Result:
+
+
+ This is text without indenta-
+ tion. The line length has
+ been set to 3 inch.
+ Now the left and
+ right margins are
+ both increased.
+ Calling .in and .ll without
+ parameters restore the previ-
+ ous values.
+
+ - Request: .po [offset]
+ - Request: .po +offset
+ - Request: .po -offset
+ - Register: \n[.o]
+ Set horizontal page offset to OFFSET (or increment or decrement
+ the current value by OFFSET). Note that this request does not
+ cause a break, so changing the page offset in the middle of text
+ being filled may not yield the expected result. The initial value
+ is 1i. For TTY output devices, it is set to 0 in the startup file
+ `troffrc'; the default scaling indicator is `m' (and not `v' as
+ incorrectly documented in the original UNIX troff manual).
+
+ The current page offset can be found in the read-only number
+ register `.o'.
+
+ If `po' is called without an argument, the page offset is reset to
+ the previous value before the last call to `po'.
+
+
+ .po 3i
+ \n[.o]
+ => 720
+ .po -1i
+ \n[.o]
+ => 480
+ .po
+ \n[.o]
+ => 720
+
+
+ - Request: .in [indent]
+ - Request: .in +indent
+ - Request: .in -indent
+ - Register: \n[.i]
+ Set indentation to INDENT (or increment or decrement the current
+ value by INDENT). This request causes a break. Initially, there
+ is no indentation.
+
+ If `in' is called without an argument, the indentation is reset to
+ the previous value before the last call to `in'. The default
+ scaling indicator is `m'.
+
+ The indentation is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ If a negative indentation value is specified (which is not
+ allowed), `gtroff' emits a warning of type `range' and sets the
+ indentation to zero.
+
+ The effect of `in' is delayed until a partially collected line (if
+ it exists) is output. A temporary indent value is reset to zero
+ also.
+
+ The current indentation (as set by `in') can be found in the
+ read-only number register `.i'.
+
+ - Request: .ti offset
+ - Request: .ti +offset
+ - Request: .ti -offset
+ - Register: \n[.in]
+ Temporarily indent the next output line by OFFSET. If an
+ increment or decrement value is specified, adjust the temporary
+ indentation relative to the value set by the `in' request.
+
+ This request causes a break; its value is associated with the
+ current environment (*note Environments::). The default scaling
+ indicator is `m'. A call of `ti' without an argument is ignored.
+
+ If the total indentation value is negative (which is not allowed),
+ `gtroff' emits a warning of type `range' and sets the temporary
+ indentation to zero. `Total indentation' is either OFFSET if
+ specified as an absolute value, or the temporary plus normal
+ indentation, if OFFSET is given as a relative value.
+
+ The effect of `ti' is delayed until a partially collected line (if
+ it exists) is output.
+
+ The read-only number register `.in' is the indentation that applies
+ to the current output line.
+
+ The difference between `.i' and `.in' is that the latter takes
+ into account whether a partially collected line still uses the old
+ indentation value or a temporary indentation value is active.
+
+ - Request: .ll [length]
+ - Request: .ll +length
+ - Request: .ll -length
+ - Register: \n[.l]
+ - Register: \n[.ll]
+ Set the line length to LENGTH (or increment or decrement the
+ current value by LENGTH). Initially, the line length is set to
+ 6.5i. The effect of `ll' is delayed until a partially collected
+ line (if it exists) is output. The default scaling indicator is
+ `m'.
+
+ If `ll' is called without an argument, the line length is reset to
+ the previous value before the last call to `ll'. If a negative
+ line length is specified (which is not allowed), `gtroff' emits a
+ warning of type `range' and sets the line length to zero.
+
+ The line length is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ The current line length (as set by `ll') can be found in the
+ read-only number register `.l'. The read-only number register
+ `.ll' is the line length that applies to the current output line.
+
+ Similar to `.i' and `.in', the difference between `.l' and `.ll'
+ is that the latter takes into account whether a partially
+ collected line still uses the old line length value.

+
+Line Control
+============
+
+ It is important to understand how `gtroff' handles input and output
+lines.
+
+ Many escapes use positioning relative to the input line. For
+example, this
+
+
+ This is a \h'|1.2i'test.
+
+ This is a
+ \h'|1.2i'test.
+
+produces
+
+
+ This is a test.
+
+ This is a test.
+
+ The main usage of this feature is to define macros which act exactly
+at the place where called.
+
+
+ .\" A simple macro to underline a word
+ .de underline
+ . nop \\$1\l'|0\[ul]'
+ ..
+
+In the above example, `|0' specifies a negative distance from the
+current position (at the end of the just emitted argument `\$1') back
+to the beginning of the input line. Thus, the `\l' escape draws a line
+from right to left.
+
+ `gtroff' makes a difference between input and output line
+continuation; the latter is also called "interrupting" a line.
+
+ - Escape: \<RET>
+ - Escape: \c
+ - Register: \n[.int]
+ Continue a line. `\<RET>' (this is a backslash at the end of a
+ line immediately followed by a newline) works on the input level,
+ suppressing the effects of the following newline in the input.
+
+
+ This is a \
+ .test
+ => This is a .test
+
+ The `|' operator is also affected.
+
+ `\c' works on the output level. Anything after this escape on the
+ same line is ignored, except `\R' which works as usual. Anything
+ before `\c' on the same line will be appended to the current
+ partial output line. The next non-command line after an
+ interrupted line counts as a new input line.
+
+ The visual results depend on whether no-fill mode is active.
+
+ * If no-fill mode is active (using the `nf' request), the next
+ input text line after `\c' will be handled as a continuation
+ of the same input text line.
+
+
+ .nf
+ This is a \c
+ test.
+ => This is a test.
+
+ * If fill mode is active (using the `fi' request), a word
+ interrupted with `\c' will be continued with the text on the
+ next input text line, without an intervening space.
+
+
+ This is a te\c
+ st.
+ => This is a test.
+
+
+ Note that an intervening control line which causes a break is
+ stronger than `\c', flushing out the current partial line in the
+ usual way.
+
+ The `.int' register contains a positive value if the last output
+ line was interrupted with `\c'; this is associated with the
+ current environment (*note Environments::).
+
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Page Layout, Next: Page Control, Prev: Line Control, Up: gtroff Reference
+
+Page Layout
+===========
+
+ `gtroff' provides some very primitive operations for controlling
+page layout.
+
+ - Request: .pl [length]
+ - Request: .pl +length
+ - Request: .pl -length
+ - Register: \n[.p]
+ Set the "page length" to LENGTH (or increment or decrement the
+ current value by LENGTH). This is the length of the physical
+ output page. The default scaling indicator is `v'.
+
+ The current setting can be found in the read-only number register
+ `.p'.
+
+ Note that this only specifies the size of the page, not the top and
+ bottom margins. Those are not set by `gtroff' directly. *Note
+ Traps::, for further information on how to do this.
+
+ Negative `pl' values are possible also, but not very useful: No
+ trap is sprung, and each line is output on a single page (thus
+ suppressing all vertical spacing).
+
+ If no argument or an invalid argument is given, `pl' sets the page
+ length to 11i.
+
+ `gtroff' provides several operations which help in setting up top
+and bottom titles (or headers and footers).
+
+ - Request: .tl 'left'center'right'
+ Print a "title line". It consists of three parts: a left
+ justified portion, a centered portion, and a right justified
+ portion. The argument separator `'' can be replaced with any
+ character not occurring in the title line. The `%' character is
+ replaced with the current page number. This character can be
+ changed with the `pc' request (see below).
+
+ Without argument, `tl' is ignored.
+
+ Some notes:
+
+ * A title line is not restricted to the top or bottom of a page.
+
+ * `tl' prints the title line immediately, ignoring a partially
+ filled line (which stays untouched).
+
+ * It is not an error to omit closing delimiters. For example,
+ `.tl /foo' is equivalent to `.tl /foo///': It prints a title
+ line with the left justified word `foo'; the centered and
+ right justfied parts are empty.
+
+ * `tl' accepts the same parameter delimiting characters as the
+ `\A' escape; see *Note Escapes::.
+
+ - Request: .lt [length]
+ - Request: .lt +length
+ - Request: .lt -length
+ - Register: \n[.lt]
+ The title line is printed using its own line length, which is
+ specified (or incremented or decremented) with the `lt' request.
+ Initially, the title line length is set to 6.5i. If a negative
+ line length is specified (which is not allowed), `gtroff' emits a
+ warning of type `range' and sets the title line length to zero.
+ The default scaling indicator is `m'. If `lt' is called without
+ an argument, the title length is reset to the previous value
+ before the last call to `lt'.
+
+ The current setting of this is available in the `.lt' read-only
+ number register; it is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+
+ - Request: .pn page
+ - Request: .pn +page
+ - Request: .pn -page
+ - Register: \n[.pn]
+ Change (increase or decrease) the page number of the _next_ page.
+ The only argument is the page number; the request is ignored
+ without a parameter.
+
+ The read-only number register `.pn' contains the number of the next
+ page: either the value set by a `pn' request, or the number of the
+ current page plus 1.
+
+ - Register: \n[%]
+ A read-write register holding the current page number.
+
+ - Request: .pc [char]
+ Change the page number character (used by the `tl' request) to a
+ different character. With no argument, this mechanism is disabled.
+ Note that this doesn't affect the number register `%'.
+
+ *Note Traps::.

+Page Control
+============
+
+ - Request: .bp [page]
+ - Request: .bp +page
+ - Request: .bp -page
+ Stop processing the current page and move to the next page. This
+ request causes a break. It can also take an argument to set
+ (increase, decrease) the page number of the next page. The only
+ difference between `bp' and `pn' is that `pn' does not cause a
+ break or actually eject a page.
+
+
+ .de newpage \" define macro
+ 'bp \" begin page
+ 'sp .5i \" vertical space
+ .tl 'left top'center top'right top' \" title
+ 'sp .3i \" vertical space
+ .. \" end macro
+
+ `bp' has no effect if not called within the top-level diversion
+ (*note Diversions::).
+
+ - Request: .ne [space]
+ It is often necessary to force a certain amount of space before a
+ new page occurs. This is most useful to make sure that there is
+ not a single "orphan" line left at the bottom of a page. The `ne'
+ request ensures that there is a certain distance, specified by the
+ first argument, before the next page is triggered (see *Note
+ Traps::, for further information). The default scaling indicator
+ for `ne' is `v'; the default value of SPACE is 1v if no argument
+ is given.
+
+ For example, to make sure that no fewer than 2 lines get orphaned,
+ do the following before each paragraph:
+
+
+ .ne 2
+ text text text
+
+ `ne' will then automatically cause a page break if there is space
+ for one line only.
+
+ - Request: .sv [space]
+ - Request: .os
+ `sv' is similar to the `ne' request; it reserves the specified
+ amount of vertical space. If the desired amount of space exists
+ before the next trap (or the bottom page boundary if no trap is
+ set), the space is output immediately (ignoring a partially filled
+ line which stays untouched). If there is not enough space, it is
+ stored for later output via the `os' request. The default value
+ is 1v if no argument is given; the default scaling indicator is
+ `v'.
+
+ Both `sv' and `os' ignore no-space mode. While the `sv' request
+ allows negative values for SPACE, `os' will ignore them.
+
+ - Register: \n[nl]
+ This register contains the current vertical position. If the
+ vertical position is zero and the top of page transition hasn't
+ happened yet, `nl' is set to negative value. `gtroff' itself does
+ this at the very beginning of a document before anything has been
+ printed, but the main usage is to plant a header trap on a page if
+ this page has already started.
+
+ Consider the following:
+
+
+ .de xxx
+ . sp
+ . tl ''Header''
+ . sp
+ ..
+ .
+ First page.
+ .bp
+ .wh 0 xxx
+ .nr nl (-1)
+ Second page.
+
+ Result:
+
+
+ First page.
+
+ ...
+
+ Header
+
+ Second page.
+
+ ...
+
+ Without resetting `nl' to a negative value, the just planted trap
+ would be active beginning with the _next_ page, not the current
+ one.
+
+ *Note Diversions::, for a comparison with the `.h' and `.d'
+ registers.

+Fonts
+=====
+
+ `gtroff' can switch fonts at any point in the text.
+
+ The basic set of fonts is `R', `I', `B', and `BI'. These are Times
+Roman, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. For non-TTY devices, there is
+also at least one symbol font which contains various special symbols
+(Greek, mathematics).

+
+Changing Fonts
+--------------
+
+ - Request: .ft [font]
+ - Escape: \fF
+ - Escape: \f(FN
+ - Escape: \f[FONT]
+ The `ft' request and the `\f' escape change the current font to
+ FONT (one-character name F, two-character name FN).
+
+ If FONT is a style name (as set with the `sty' request or with the
+ `styles' command in the `DESC' file), use it within the current
+ font family (as set with the `fam' request, `\F' escape, or with
+ the `family' command in the `DESC' file).
+
+ With no argument or using `P' as an argument, `.ft' switches to
+ the previous font. Use `\f[]' to do this with the escape. The
+ old syntax forms `\fP' or `\f[P]' are also supported.
+
+ Fonts are generally specified as upper-case strings, which are
+ usually 1 to 4 characters representing an abbreviation or acronym
+ of the font name. This is no limitation, just a convention.
+
+ The example below produces two identical lines.
+
+
+ eggs, bacon,
+ .ft B
+ spam
+ .ft
+ and sausage.
+
+ eggs, bacon, \fBspam\fP and sausage.
+
+ Note that `\f' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'. As a
+ consequence, it can be used in requests like `mc' (which expects a
+ single character as an argument) to change the font on the fly:
+
+
+ .mc \f[I]x\f[]
+
+ *Note Font Positions::, for an alternative syntax.
+
+ - Request: .ftr f [g]
+ Translate font F to font G. Whenever a font named F is referred
+ to in a `\f' escape sequence, or in the `ft', `ul', `bd', `cs',
+ `tkf', `special', `fspecial', `fp', or `sty' requests, font G is
+ used. If G is missing or equal to F the translation is undone.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Font Families, Next: Font Positions, Prev: Changing Fonts, Up: Fonts
+
+Font Families
+-------------
+
+ Due to the variety of fonts available, `gtroff' has added the
+concept of "font families" and "font styles". The fonts are specified
+as the concatenation of the font family and style. Specifying a font
+without the family part causes `gtroff' to use that style of the
+current family.
+
+ Currently, fonts for the devices `-Tps', `-Tdvi', and `-Tlbp' are
+set up to this mechanism. By default, `gtroff' uses the Times family
+with the four styles `R', `I', `B', and `BI'.
+
+ This way, it is possible to use the basic four fonts and to select a
+different font family on the command line (*note Groff Options::).
+
+ - Request: .fam [family]
+ - Register: \n[.fam]
+ - Escape: \FF
+ - Escape: \F(FM
+ - Escape: \F[FAMILY]
+ - Register: \n[.fn]
+ Switch font family to FAMILY (one-character name F, two-character
+ name FM). If no argument is given, switch back to the previous
+ font family. Use `\F[]' to do this with the escape. Note that
+ `\FP' doesn't work; it selects font family `P' instead.
+
+ The value at start-up is `T'. The current font family is
+ available in the read-only number register `.fam' (this is a
+ string-valued register); it is associated with the current
+ environment.
+
+
+ spam,
+ .fam H \" helvetica family
+ spam, \" used font is family H + style R = HR
+ .ft B \" family H + style B = font HB
+ spam,
+ .fam T \" times family
+ spam, \" used font is family T + style B = TB
+ .ft AR \" font AR (not a style)
+ baked beans,
+ .ft R \" family T + style R = font TR
+ and spam.
+
+ Note that `\F' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'. As a
+ consequence, it can be used in requests like `mc' (which expects a
+ single character as an argument) to change the font family on the
+ fly:
+
+
+ .mc \F[P]x\F[]
+
+ The `.fn' register contains the current "real font name" of the
+ current font. This is a string-valued register. If the current
+ font is a style, the value of `\n[.fn]' is the proper
+ concatenation of family and style name.
+
+ - Request: .sty n style
+ Associate STYLE with font position N. A font position can be
+ associated either with a font or with a style. The current font
+ is the index of a font position and so is also either a font or a
+ style. If it is a style, the font that is actually used is the
+ font which name is the concatenation of the name of the current
+ family and the name of the current style. For example, if the
+ current font is 1 and font position 1 is associated with style `R'
+ and the current font family is `T', then font `TR' will be used.
+ If the current font is not a style, then the current family is
+ ignored. If the requests `cs', `bd', `tkf', `uf', or `fspecial'
+ are applied to a style, they will instead be applied to the member
+ of the current family corresponding to that style.
+
+ N must be a non-negative integer value.
+
+ The default family can be set with the `-f' option (*note Groff
+ Options::). The `styles' command in the `DESC' file controls
+ which font positions (if any) are initially associated with styles
+ rather than fonts. For example, the default setting for
+ POSTSCRIPT fonts
+
+
+ styles R I B BI
+
+ is equivalent to
+
+
+ .sty 1 R
+ .sty 2 I
+ .sty 3 B
+ .sty 4 BI
+
+ `fam' and `\F' always check whether the current font position is
+ valid; this can give surprising results if the current font
+ position is associated with a style.
+
+ In the following example, we want to access the POSTSCRIPT font
+ `FooBar' from the font family `Foo':
+
+
+ .sty \n[.fp] Bar
+ .fam Foo
+ => warning: can't find font `FooR'
+
+ The default font position at start-up is 1; for the POSTSCRIPT
+ device, this is associated with style `R', so `gtroff' tries to
+ open `FooR'.
+
+ A solution to this problem is to use a dummy font like the
+ following:
+
+
+ .fp 0 dummy TR \" set up dummy font at position 0
+ .sty \n[.fp] Bar \" register style `Bar'
+ .ft 0 \" switch to font at position 0
+ .fam Foo \" activate family `Foo'
+ .ft Bar \" switch to font `FooBar'
+
+ *Note Font Positions::.

+
+Font Positions
+--------------
+
+ For the sake of old phototypesetters and compatibility with old
+versions of `troff', `gtroff' has the concept of font "positions", on
+which various fonts are mounted.
+
+ - Request: .fp pos font [external-name]
+ - Register: \n[.f]
+ - Register: \n[.fp]
+ Mount font FONT at position POS (which must be a non-negative
+ integer). This numeric position can then be referred to with font
+ changing commands. When `gtroff' starts it is using font
+ position 1 (which must exist; position 0 is unused usually at
+ start-up).
+
+ The current font in use, as a font position, is available in the
+ read-only number register `.f'. This can be useful to remember the
+ current font for later recall. It is associated with the current
+ environment (*note Environments::).
+
+
+ .nr save-font \n[.f]
+ .ft B
+ ... text text text ...
+ .ft \n[save-font]
+
+ The number of the next free font position is available in the
+ read-only number register `.fp'. This is useful when mounting a
+ new font, like so:
+
+
+ .fp \n[.fp] NEATOFONT
+
+ Fonts not listed in the `DESC' file are automatically mounted on
+ the next available font position when they are referenced. If a
+ font is to be mounted explicitly with the `fp' request on an unused
+ font position, it should be mounted on the first unused font
+ position, which can be found in the `.fp' register. Although
+ `gtroff' does not enforce this strictly, it is not allowed to
+ mount a font at a position whose number is much greater (approx.
+ 1000 positions) than that of any currently used position.
+
+ The `fp' request has an optional third argument. This argument
+ gives the external name of the font, which is used for finding the
+ font description file. The second argument gives the internal
+ name of the font which is used to refer to the font in `gtroff'
+ after it has been mounted. If there is no third argument then the
+ internal name is used as the external name. This feature makes it
+ possible to use fonts with long names in compatibility mode.
+
+ Both the `ft' request and the `\f' escape have alternative syntax
+forms to access font positions.
+
+ - Request: .ft nnn
+ - Escape: \fN
+ - Escape: \f(NN
+ - Escape: \f[NNN]
+ Change the current font position to NNN (one-digit position N,
+ two-digit position NN), which must be a non-negative integer.
+
+ If NNN is associated with a style (as set with the `sty' request
+ or with the `styles' command in the `DESC' file), use it within
+ the current font family (as set with the `fam' request, the `\F'
+ escape, or with the `family' command in the `DESC' file).
+
+
+ this is font 1
+ .ft 2
+ this is font 2
+ .ft \" switch back to font 1
+ .ft 3
+ this is font 3
+ .ft
+ this is font 1 again
+
+ *Note Changing Fonts::, for the standard syntax form.

+
+File: groff, Node: Using Symbols, Next: Special Fonts, Prev: Font Positions, Up: Fonts
+
+Using Symbols
+-------------
+
+ A "glyph" is a graphical representation of a "character". While a
+character is an abstract entity containing semantic information, a
+glyph is something which can be actually seen on screen or paper. It
+is possible that a character has multiple glyph representation forms
+(for example, the character `A' can be either written in a roman or an
+italic font, yielding two different glyphs); sometimes more than one
+character maps to a single glyph (this is a "ligature" - the most
+common is `fi').
+
+ A "symbol" is simply a named glyph. Within `gtroff', all glyph
+names of a particular font are defined in its font file. If the user
+requests a glyph not available in this font, `gtroff' looks up an
+ordered list of "special fonts". By default, the POSTSCRIPT output
+device supports the two special fonts `SS' (slanted symbols) and `S'
+(symbols) (the former is looked up before the latter). Other output
+devices use different names for special fonts. Fonts mounted with the
+`fonts' keyword in the `DESC' file are globally available. To install
+additional special fonts locally (i.e. for a particular font), use the
+`fspecial' request.
+
+ In summary, `gtroff' tries the following to find a given symbol:
+
+ * If the symbol has been defined with the `char' request, use it.
+ This hides a symbol with the same name in the current font.
+
+ * Check the current font.
+
+ * If the symbol has been defined with the `fchar' request, use it.
+
+ * Check all fonts given with the `fspecial' request, in the order of
+ appearance in `fspecial' calls.
+
+ * Check all fonts given with the `special' request, in the order of
+ appearance in `special' calls (inclusively the special fonts
+ defined in the `DESC' file, which come first).
+
+ * As a last resort, consult all fonts loaded up to now (in the order
+ they have been called the first time) for special fonts and check
+ them.
+
+ *Note Font Files::, and *Note Special Fonts::, for more details.
+
+ - Escape: \(NM
+ - Escape: \[NAME]
+ Insert a symbol NAME (two-character name NM). There is no special
+ syntax for one-character names - the natural form `\N' would
+ collide with escapes.(1) (*note Using Symbols-Footnote-1::)
+
+ If NAME is undefined, a warning of type `char' is generated, and
+ the escape is ignored. *Note Debugging::, for information about
+ warnings.
+
+ The list of available symbols is device dependent; see the
+ `groff_char(7)' man page for a complete list for the given output
+ device. For example, say
+
+
+ man -Tdvi groff_char > groff_char.dvi
+
+ for a list using the default DVI fonts (not all versions of the
+ `man' program support the `-T' option). If you want to use an
+ additional macro package to change the used fonts, `groff' must be
+ called directly:
+
+
+ groff -Tdvi -mec -man groff_char.7 > groff_char.dvi
+
+
+ - Escape: \C'XXX'
+ Typeset the glyph named XXX.(2) (*note Using Symbols-Footnote-2::)
+ Normally it is more convenient to use `\[XXX]', but `\C' has the
+ advantage that it is compatible with newer versions of AT&T
+ `troff' and is available in compatibility mode.
+
+ - Escape: \N'N'
+ Typeset the glyph with code N in the current font (`n' is *not*
+ the input character code). The number N can be any non-negative
+ decimal integer. Most devices only have glyphs with codes between
+ 0 and 255; the Unicode output device uses codes in the range
+ 0-65535. If the current font does not contain a glyph with that
+ code, special fonts are _not_ searched. The `\N' escape sequence
+ can be conveniently used in conjunction with the `char' request:
+
+
+ .char \[phone] \f[ZD]\N'37'
+
+ The code of each glyph is given in the fourth column in the font
+ description file after the `charset' command. It is possible to
+ include unnamed glyphs in the font description file by using a
+ name of `---'; the `\N' escape sequence is the only way to use
+ these.
+
+ Some escape sequences directly map onto special glyphs.
+
+ - Escape: \'
+ This is a backslash followed by the apostrophe character, ASCII
+ character `0x27' (EBCDIC character `0x7D'). The same as `\[aa]',
+ the acute accent.
+
+ - Escape: \`
+ This is a backslash followed by ASCII character `0x60' (EBCDIC
+ character `0x79' usually). The same as `\[ga]', the grave accent.
+
+ - Escape: \-
+ This is the same as `\[-]', the minus sign in the current font.
+
+ - Request: .cflags n c1 c2 ...
+ Input characters and symbols have certain properties associated
+ with it.(3) (*note Using Symbols-Footnote-3::) These properties
+ can be modified with the `cflags' request. The first argument is
+ the sum of the desired flags and the remaining arguments are the
+ characters or symbols to have those properties. It is possible to
+ omit the spaces between the characters or symbols.
+
+ `1'
+ The character ends sentences (initially characters `.?!' have
+ this property).
+
+ `2'
+ Lines can be broken before the character (initially no
+ characters have this property).
+
+ `4'
+ Lines can be broken after the character (initially the
+ character `-' and the symbols `\(hy' and `\(em' have this
+ property).
+
+ `8'
+ The character overlaps horizontally (initially the symbols
+ `\(ul\(rn\(ru' have this property).
+
+ `16'
+ The character overlaps vertically (initially symbol `\(br' has
+ this property).
+
+ `32'
+ An end-of-sentence character followed by any number of
+ characters with this property is treated as the end of a
+ sentence if followed by a newline or two spaces; in other
+ words the character is "transparent" for the purposes of
+ end-of-sentence recognition - this is the same as having a
+ zero space factor in TeX (initially characters `"')]*' and
+ the symbols `\(dg\(rq' have this property).
+
+ - Request: .char g [string]
+ - Request: .fchar g [string]
+ Define a new glyph G to be STRING (which can be empty).(4) (*note
+ Using Symbols-Footnote-4::) Every time glyph G needs to be
+ printed, STRING is processed in a temporary environment and the
+ result is wrapped up into a single object. Compatibility mode is
+ turned off and the escape character is set to `\' while STRING is
+ being processed. Any emboldening, constant spacing or track
+ kerning is applied to this object rather than to individual
+ characters in STRING.
+
+ A glyph defined by this request can be used just like a normal
+ glyph provided by the output device. In particular, other
+ characters can be translated to it with the `tr' or `trin'
+ requests; it can be made the leader character by the `lc' request;
+ repeated patterns can be drawn with the glyph using the `\l' and
+ `\L' escape sequences; words containing the glyph can be
+ hyphenated correctly if the `hcode' request is used to give the
+ glyph's symbol a hyphenation code.
+
+ There is a special anti-recursion feature: Use of `g' within the
+ glyph's definition is handled like normal characters and symbols
+ not defined with `char'.
+
+ Note that the `tr' and `trin' requests take precedence if `char'
+ accesses the same symbol.
+
+
+ .tr XY
+ X
+ => Y
+ .char X Z
+ X
+ => Y
+ .tr XX
+ X
+ => Z
+
+ The `fchar' request defines a fallback glyph: `gtroff' only checks
+ for glyphs defined with `fchar' if it cannot find the glyph in the
+ current font. `gtroff' carries out this test before checking
+ special fonts.
+
+ - Request: .rchar c1 c2 ...
+ Remove the definitions of glyphs C1, C2, .... This undoes the
+ effect of a `char' or `fchar' request.
+
+ It is possible to omit the whitespace between arguments.
+
+ *Note Special Characters::.

+File: groff, Node: Using Symbols-Footnotes, Up: Using Symbols
+
+ (1) Note that a one-character symbol is not the same as an input
+character, i.e., the character `a' is not the same as `\[a]'. By
+default, `groff' defines only a single one-character symbol, `\[-]'; it
+is usually accessed as `\-'. On the other hand, `gtroff' has the
+special feature that `\[charXXX]' is the same as the input character
+with character code XXX. For example, `\[char97]' is identical to the
+letter `a' if ASCII encoding is active.
+
+ (2) `\C' is actually a misnomer since it accesses an output glyph.
+
+ (3) Note that the output glyphs themselves don't have such
+properties. For `gtroff', a glyph is a numbered box with a given
+width, depth, and height, nothing else. All manipulations with the
+`cflags' request work on the input level.
+
+ (4) `char' is a misnomer since an output glyph is defined.

+Special Fonts
+-------------
+
+ Special fonts are those that `gtroff' searches when it cannot find
+the requested glyph in the current font. The Symbol font is usually a
+special font.
+
+ `gtroff' provides the following two requests to add more special
+fonts. *Note Using Symbols::, for a detailed description of the glyph
+searching mechanism in `gtroff'.
+
+ Usually, only non-TTY devices have special fonts.
+
+ - Request: .special s1 s2 ...
+ - Request: .fspecial f s1 s2 ...
+ Use the `special' request to define special fonts. They are
+ appended to the list of global special fonts in the given order.
+ The first entries in this list are the fonts defined with the
+ `fonts' command in the `DESC' file which are marked as special in
+ the corresponding font description files.
+
+ Use the `fspecial' request to designate special fonts only when
+ font F font is active. They are appended to the list of special
+ fonts for F in the given order. Initially, this list is empty.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Artificial Fonts, Next: Ligatures and Kerning, Prev: Special Fonts, Up: Fonts
+
+Artificial Fonts
+----------------
+
+ There are a number of requests and escapes for artificially creating
+fonts. These are largely vestiges of the days when output devices did
+not have a wide variety of fonts, and when `nroff' and `troff' were
+separate programs. Most of them are no longer necessary in GNU
+`troff'. Nevertheless, they are supported.
+
+ - Escape: \H'HEIGHT'
+ - Escape: \H'+HEIGHT'
+ - Escape: \H'-HEIGHT'
+ Change (increment, decrement) the height of the current font, but
+ not the width. If HEIGHT is zero, restore the original height.
+ Default scaling indicator is `z'.
+
+ Currently, only the `-Tps' device supports this feature.
+
+ Note that `\H' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'. As a
+ consequence, it can be used in requests like `mc' (which expects a
+ single character as an argument) to change the font on the fly:
+
+
+ .mc \H'+5z'x\H'0'
+
+ In compatibility mode, `gtroff' behaves differently: If an
+ increment or decrement is used, it is always taken relative to the
+ current point size and not relative to the previously selected font
+ height. Thus,
+
+
+ .cp 1
+ \H'+5'test \H'+5'test
+
+ prints the word `test' twice with the same font height (five
+ points larger than the current font size).
+
+ - Escape: \S'SLANT'
+ Slant the current font by SLANT degrees. Positive values slant to
+ the right.
+
+ Currently, only the `-Tps' device supports this feature.
+
+ Note that `\S' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'. As a
+ consequence, it can be used in requests like `mc' (which expects a
+ single character as an argument) to change the font on the fly:
+
+
+ .mc \S'20'x\S'0'
+
+ This request is incorrectly documented in the original UNIX troff
+ manual; the slant is always set to an absolute value.
+
+ - Request: .ul [lines]
+ The `ul' request normally underlines subsequent lines if a TTY
+ output device is used. Otherwise, the lines are printed in italics
+ (only the term `underlined' is used in the following). The single
+ argument is the number of input lines to be underlined; with no
+ argument, the next line is underlined. If LINES is zero or
+ negative, stop the effects of `ul' (if it was active). Requests
+ and empty lines do not count for computing the number of underlined
+ input lines, even if they produce some output like `tl'. Lines
+ inserted by macros (e.g. invoked by a trap) do count.
+
+ At the beginning of `ul', the current font is stored and the
+ underline font is activated. Within the span of a `ul' request,
+ it is possible to change fonts, but after the last line affected by
+ `ul' the saved font is restored.
+
+ This number of lines still to be underlined is associated with the
+ current environment (*note Environments::). The underline font
+ can be changed with the `uf' request.
+
+ The `ul' request does not underline spaces.
+
+ - Request: .cu [lines]
+ The `cu' request is similar to `ul' but underlines spaces as well
+ (if a TTY output device is used).
+
+ - Request: .uf font
+ Set the underline font (globally) used by `ul' and `cu'. By
+ default, this is the font at position 2. FONT can be either a
+ non-negative font position or the name of a font.
+
+ - Request: .bd font [offset]
+ - Request: .bd font1 font2 [offset]
+ - Register: \n[.b]
+ Artificially create a bold font by printing each glyph twice,
+ slightly offset.
+
+ Two syntax forms are available.
+
+ * Imitate a bold font unconditionally. The first argument
+ specifies the font to embolden, and the second is the number
+ of basic units, minus one, by which the two glyphs are
+ offset. If the second argument is missing, emboldening is
+ turned off.
+
+ FONT can be either a non-negative font position or the name
+ of a font.
+
+ OFFSET is available in the `.b' read-only register if a
+ special font is active; in the `bd' request, its default unit
+ is `u'.
+
+ * Imitate a bold form conditionally. Embolden FONT1 by OFFSET
+ only if font FONT2 is the current font. This command can be
+ issued repeatedly to set up different emboldening values for
+ different current fonts. If the second argument is missing,
+ emboldening is turned off for this particular current font.
+
+ This affects special fonts only (either set up with the
+ `special' command in font files or with the `fspecial'
+ request).
+
+ - Request: .cs font [width [em-size]]
+ Switch to and from "constant glyph space mode". If activated, the
+ width of every glyph is WIDTH/36 ems. The em size is given
+ absolutely by EM-SIZE; if this argument is missing, the em value
+ is taken from the current font size (as set with the `ps' request)
+ when the font is effectively in use. Without second and third
+ argument, constant glyph space mode is deactivated.
+
+ Default scaling indicator for EM-SIZE is `z'; WIDTH is an integer.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Ligatures and Kerning, Prev: Artificial Fonts, Up: Fonts
+
+Ligatures and Kerning
+---------------------
+
+ Ligatures are groups of characters that are run together, i.e,
+producing a single glyph. For example, the letters `f' and `i' can
+form a ligature `fi' as in the word `file'. This produces a cleaner
+look (albeit subtle) to the printed output. Usually, ligatures are not
+available in fonts for TTY output devices.
+
+ Most POSTSCRIPT fonts support the fi and fl ligatures. The C/A/T
+typesetter that was the target of AT&T `troff' also supported `ff',
+`ffi', and `ffl' ligatures. Advanced typesetters or `expert' fonts may
+include ligatures for `ft' and `ct', although GNU `troff' does not
+support these (yet).
+
+ - Request: .lg [flag]
+ - Register: \n[.lg]
+ Switch the ligature mechanism on or off; if the parameter is
+ non-zero or missing, ligatures are enabled, otherwise disabled.
+ Default is on. The current ligature mode can be found in the
+ read-only number register `.lg' (set to 1 or 2 if ligatures are
+ enabled, 0 otherwise).
+
+ Setting the ligature mode to 2 enables the two-character ligatures
+ (fi, fl, and ff) and disables the three-character ligatures (ffi
+ and ffl).
+
+ "Pairwise kerning" is another subtle typesetting mechanism that
+modifies the distance between a glyph pair to improve readability. In
+most cases (but not always) the distance is decreased. Typewriter-like
+fonts and fonts for terminals where all glyphs have the same width
+don't use kerning.
+
+ - Request: .kern [flag]
+ - Register: \n[.kern]
+ Switch kerning on or off. If the parameter is non-zero or missing,
+ enable pairwise kerning, otherwise disable it. The read-only
+ number register `.kern' is set to 1 if pairwise kerning is enabled,
+ 0 otherwise.
+
+ If the font description file contains pairwise kerning information,
+ glyphs from that font are kerned. Kerning between two glyphs can
+ be inhibited by placing `\&' between them: `V\&A'.
+
+ *Note Font File Format::.
+
+ "Track kerning" expands or reduces the space between glyphs. This
+can be handy, for example, if you need to squeeze a long word onto a
+single line or spread some text to fill a narrow column. It must be
+used with great care since it is usually considered bad typography if
+the reader notices the effect.
+
+ - Request: .tkf f s1 n1 s2 n2
+ Enable track kerning for font F. If the current font is F the
+ width of every glyph is increased by an amount between N1 and N2
+ (N1, N2 can be negative); if the current point size is less than
+ or equal to S1 the width is increased by N1; if it is greater than
+ or equal to S2 the width is increased by N2; if the point size is
+ greater than or equal to S1 and less than or equal to S2 the
+ increase in width is a linear function of the point size.
+
+ The default scaling indicator is `z' for S1 and S2, `p' for N1 and
+ N2.
+
+ Note that the track kerning amount is added even to the rightmost
+ glyph in a line; for large values it is thus recommended to
+ increase the line length by the same amount to compensate it.
+
+ Sometimes, when typesetting letters of different fonts, more or less
+space at such boundaries are needed. There are two escapes to help
+with this.
+
+ - Escape: \/
+ Increase the width of the preceding glyph so that the spacing
+ between that glyph and the following glyph is correct if the
+ following glyph is a roman glyph. For example, if an italic `f'
+ is immediately followed by a roman right parenthesis, then in many
+ fonts the top right portion of the `f' overlaps the top left of
+ the right parenthesis. Use this escape sequence whenever an
+ italic glyph is immediately followed by a roman glyph without any
+ intervening space. This small amount of space is also called
+ "italic correction".
+
+
+ - Escape: \,
+ Modify the spacing of the following glyph so that the spacing
+ between that glyph and the preceding glyph is correct if the
+ preceding glyph is a roman glyph. Use this escape sequence
+ whenever a roman glyph is immediately followed by an italic glyph
+ without any intervening space. In analogy to above, this space
+ could be called "left italic correction", but this term isn't used
+ widely.
+
+
+ - Escape: \&
+ Insert a zero-width character, which is invisible. Its intended
+ use is to stop interaction of a character with its surrounding.
+
+ * It prevents the insertion of extra space after an
+ end-of-sentence character.
+
+
+ Test.
+ Test.
+ => Test. Test.
+ Test.\&
+ Test.
+ => Test. Test.
+
+ * It prevents interpretation of a control character at the
+ beginning of an input line.
+
+
+ .Test
+ => warning: `Test' not defined
+ \&.Test
+ => .Test
+
+ * It prevents kerning between two glyphs.
+
+ * It is needed to map an arbitrary character to nothing in the
+ `tr' request (*note Character Translations::).
+
+ - Escape: \)
+ This escape is similar to `\&' except that it behaves like a
+ character declared with the `cflags' request to be transparent for
+ the purposes of an end-of-sentence character.
+
+ Its main usage is in macro definitions to protect against arguments
+ starting with a control character.
+

+Sizes
+=====
+
+ `gtroff' uses two dimensions with each line of text, type size and
+vertical spacing. The "type size" is approximately the height of the
+tallest glyph.(1) (*note Sizes-Footnote-1::) "Vertical spacing" is the
+amount of space `gtroff' allows for a line of text; normally, this is
+about 20% larger than the current type size. Ratios smaller than this
+can result in hard-to-read text; larger than this, it spreads the text
+out more vertically (useful for term papers). By default, `gtroff'
+uses 10 point type on 12 point spacing.
+
+ The difference between type size and vertical spacing is known, by
+typesetters, as "leading" (this is pronounced `ledding').

+ (1) This is usually the parenthesis. Note that in most cases the
+real dimensions of the glyphs in a font are _not_ related to its type
+size! For example, the standard POSTSCRIPT font families `Times
+Roman', `Helvetica', and `Courier' can't be used together at 10pt; to
+get acceptable output, the size of `Helvetica' has to be reduced by one
+point, and the size of `Courier' must be increased by one point.

+Changing Type Sizes
+-------------------
+
+ - Request: .ps [size]
+ - Request: .ps +size
+ - Request: .ps -size
+ - Escape: \sSIZE
+ - Register: \n[.s]
+ Use the `ps' request or the `\s' escape to change (increase,
+ decrease) the type size (in points). Specify SIZE as either an
+ absolute point size, or as a relative change from the current size.
+ The size 0, or no argument, goes back to the previous size.
+
+ Default scaling indicator of `size' is `z'. If `size' is zero or
+ negative, it is set to 1u.
+
+ The read-only number register `.s' returns the point size in
+ points as a decimal fraction. This is a string. To get the point
+ size in scaled points, use the `.ps' register instead.

+ .ps 10
+
+ The `\s' escape may be called in a variety of ways. Much like
+ other escapes there must be a way to determine where the argument
+ ends and the text begins. Any of the following forms are valid:
+
+ `\sN'
+ Set the point size to N points. N must be either 0 or in the
+ range 4 to 39.
+
+ `\s+N'
+ `\s-N'
+ Increase or decrease the point size by N points. N must be
+ exactly one digit.
+
+ `\s(NN'
+ Set the point size to NN points. NN must be exactly two
+ digits.
+
+ `\s+(NN'
+ `\s-(NN'
+ `\s(+NN'
+ `\s(-NN'
+ Increase or decrease the point size by NN points. NN must be
+ exactly two digits.
+
+ Note that `\s' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'. As a
+ consequence, it can be used in requests like `mc' (which expects a
+ single character as an argument) to change the font on the fly:
+
+
+ .mc \s[20]x\s[0]
+
+ *Note Fractional Type Sizes::, for yet another syntactical form of
+ using the `\s' escape.
+
+ - Request: .sizes s1 s2 ... sn [0]
+ Some devices may only have certain permissible sizes, in which case
+ `gtroff' rounds to the nearest permissible size. The `DESC' file
+ specifies which sizes are permissible for the device.
+
+ Use the `sizes' request to change the permissible sizes for the
+ current output device. Arguments are in scaled points; the
+ `sizescale' line in the `DESC' file for the output device provides
+ the scaling factor. For example, if the scaling factor is 1000,
+ then the value 12000 is 12 points.
+
+ Each argument can be a single point size (such as `12000'), or a
+ range of sizes (such as `4000-72000'). You can optionally end the
+ list with a zero.
+
+ - Request: .vs [space]
+ - Request: .vs +space
+ - Request: .vs -space
+ - Register: \n[.v]
+ Change (increase, decrease) the vertical spacing by SPACE. The
+ default scaling indicator is `p'.
+
+ If `vs' is called without an argument, the vertical spacing is
+ reset to the previous value before the last call to `vs'.
+
+ `gtroff' creates a warning of type `range' if SPACE is zero or
+ negative; the vertical spacing is then set to the vertical
+ resolution (as given in the `.V' register).
+
+ The read-only number register `.v' contains the current vertical
+ spacing; it is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ The effective vertical line spacing consists of four components.
+
+ * The vertical line spacing as set with the `vs' request.
+
+ * The "post-vertical line spacing" as set with the `pvs' request.
+ This is vertical space which will be added after a line has been
+ output.
+
+ * The "extra pre-vertical line space" as set with the `\x' request,
+ using a negative value. This is vertical space which will be
+ added once before the current line has been output.
+
+ * The "extra post-vertical line space" as set with the `\x' request,
+ using a positive value. This is vertical space which will be
+ added once after the current line has been output.
+
+ It is usually better to use `vs' or `pvs' instead of `ls' to produce
+double-spaced documents: `vs' and `pvs' have a finer granularity for
+the inserted vertical space compared to `ls'; furthermore, certain
+preprocessors assume single-spacing.
+
+ *Note Manipulating Spacing::, for more details on the `\x' escape
+and the `ls' request.
+
+ - Request: .pvs [space]
+ - Request: .pvs +space
+ - Request: .pvs -space
+ - Register: \n[.pvs]
+ Change (increase, decrease) the post-vertical spacing by SPACE.
+ The default scaling indicator is `p'.
+
+ If `pvs' is called without an argument, the post-vertical spacing
+ is reset to the previous value before the last call to `pvs'.
+
+ `gtroff' creates a warning of type `range' if SPACE is zero or
+ negative; the vertical spacing is then set to zero.

+
+ A "scaled point" is equal to 1/SIZESCALE points, where SIZESCALE is
+specified in the `DESC' file (1 by default). There is a new scale
+indicator `z' which has the effect of multiplying by SIZESCALE.
+Requests and escape sequences in `gtroff' interpret arguments that
+represent a point size as being in units of scaled points, but they
+evaluate each such argument using a default scale indicator of `z'.
+Arguments treated in this way are the argument to the `ps' request, the
+third argument to the `cs' request, the second and fourth arguments to
+the `tkf' request, the argument to the `\H' escape sequence, and those
+variants of the `\s' escape sequence that take a numeric expression as
+their argument (see below).
+
+ For example, suppose SIZESCALE is 1000; then a scaled point is
+equivalent to a millipoint; the request `.ps 10.25' is equivalent to
+`.ps 10.25z' and thus sets the point size to 10250 scaled points, which
+is equal to 10.25 points.
+
+ `gtroff' disallows the use of the `z' scale indicator in instances
+where it would make no sense, such as a numeric expression whose
+default scale indicator was neither `u' nor `z'. Similarly it would
+make no sense to use a scaling indicator other than `z' or `u' in a
+numeric expression whose default scale indicator was `z', and so
+`gtroff' disallows this as well.
+
+ There is also new scale indicator `s' which multiplies by the number
+of units in a scaled point. So, for example, `\n[.ps]s' is equal to
+`1m'. Be sure not to confuse the `s' and `z' scale indicators.
+
+ - Register: \n[.ps]
+ A read-only number register returning the point size in scaled
+ points.
+
+ `.ps' is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ - Register: \n[.psr]
+ - Register: \n[.sr]
+ The last-requested point size in scaled points is contained in the
+ `.psr' read-only number register. The last requested point size
+ in points as a decimal fraction can be found in `.sr'. This is a
+ string-valued read-only number register.
+
+ Note that the requested point sizes are device-independent, whereas
+ the values returned by the `.ps' and `.s' registers are not. For
+ example, if a point size of 11pt is requested, and a `sizes'
+ request (or a `sizescale' line in a `DESC' file) specifies 10.95pt
+ instead, this value is actually used.
+
+ Both registers are associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ The `\s' escape has the following syntax for working with fractional
+type sizes:
+
+`\s[N]'
+`\s'N''
+ Set the point size to N scaled points; N is a numeric expression
+ with a default scale indicator of `z'.
+
+`\s[+N]'
+`\s[-N]'
+`\s+[N]'
+`\s-[N]'
+`\s'+N''
+`\s'-N''
+`\s+'N''
+`\s-'N''
+ Increase or or decrease the point size by N scaled points; N is a
+ numeric expression with a default scale indicator of `z'.

+
+Strings
+=======
+
+ `gtroff' has string variables, which are entirely for user
+convenience (i.e. there are no built-in strings exept `.T', but even
+this is a read-write string variable).
+
+ - Request: .ds name [string]
+ - Request: .ds1 name [string]
+ - Escape: \*N
+ - Escape: \*(NM
+ - Escape: \*[NAME ARG1 ARG2 ...]
+ Define and access a string variable NAME (one-character name N,
+ two-character name NM). If NAME already exists, `ds' overwrites
+ the previous definition. Only the syntax form using brackets can
+ take arguments which are handled identically to macro arguments;
+ the single exception is that a closing bracket as an argument must
+ be enclosed in double quotes. *Note Request Arguments::, and
+ *Note Parameters::.
+
+ Example:
+
+
+ .ds foo a \\$1 test
+ .
+ This is \*[foo nice].
+ => This is a nice test.
+
+ The `\*' escape "interpolates" (expands in-place) a
+ previously-defined string variable. To be more precise, the stored
+ string is pushed onto the input stack which is then parsed by
+ `gtroff'. Similar to number registers, it is possible to nest
+ strings, i.e. string variables can be called within string
+ variables.
+
+ If the string named by the `\*' escape does not exist, it is
+ defined as empty, and a warning of type `mac' is emitted (see
+ *Note Debugging::, for more details).
+
+ *Caution:* Unlike other requests, the second argument to the `ds'
+ request takes up the entire line including trailing spaces. This
+ means that comments on a line with such a request can introduce
+ unwanted space into a string.
+
+
+ .ds UX \s-1UNIX\s0\u\s-3tm\s0\d \" UNIX trademark
+
+ Instead the comment should be put on another line or have the
+ comment escape adjacent with the end of the string.
+
+
+ .ds UX \s-1UNIX\s0\u\s-3tm\s0\d\" UNIX trademark
+
+ To produce leading space the string can be started with a double
+ quote. No trailing quote is needed; in fact, any trailing quote is
+ included in your string.
+
+
+ .ds sign " Yours in a white wine sauce,
+
+ Strings are not limited to a single line of text. A string can
+ span several lines by escaping the newlines with a backslash. The
+ resulting string is stored _without_ the newlines.
+
+
+ .ds foo lots and lots \
+ of text are on these \
+ next several lines
+
+ It is not possible to have real newlines in a string. To put a
+ single double quote character into a string, use two consecutive
+ double quote characters.
+
+ The `ds1' request turns off compatibility mode while interpreting
+ a string. To be more precise, a "compatibility save" input token
+ is inserted at the beginning of the string, and a "compatibility
+ restore" input token at the end.
+
+
+ .nr xxx 12345
+ .ds aa The value of xxx is \\n[xxx].
+ .ds1 bb The value of xxx ix \\n[xxx].
+ .
+ .cp 1
+ .
+ \*(aa
+ => warning: number register `[' not defined
+ => The value of xxx is 0xxx].
+ \*(bb
+ => The value of xxx ix 12345.
+
+ Strings, macros, and diversions (and boxes) share the same name
+ space. Internally, even the same mechanism is used to store them.
+ This has some interesting consequences. For example, it is
+ possible to call a macro with string syntax and vice versa.
+
+
+ .de xxx
+ a funny test.
+ ..
+ This is \*[xxx]
+ => This is a funny test.
+
+ .ds yyy a funny test
+ This is
+ .yyy
+ => This is a funny test.
+
+ Diversions and boxes can be also called with string syntax.
+
+ Another consequence is that you can copy one-line diversions or
+ boxes to a string.
+
+
+ .di xxx
+ a \fItest\fR
+ .br
+ .di
+ .ds yyy This is \*[xxx]\c
+ \*[yyy].
+ => This is a test.
+
+ As the previous example shows, it is possible to store formatted
+ output in strings. The `\c' escape prevents the insertion of an
+ additional blank line in the output.
+
+ Copying diversions longer than a single output line produces
+ unexpected results.
+
+
+ .di xxx
+ a funny
+ .br
+ test
+ .br
+ .di
+ .ds yyy This is \*[xxx]\c
+ \*[yyy].
+ => test This is a funny.
+
+ Usually, it is not predictable whether a diversion contains one or
+ more output lines, so this mechanism should be avoided. With UNIX
+ `troff', this was the only solution to strip off a final newline
+ from a diversion. Another disadvantage is that the spaces in the
+ copied string are already formatted, making them unstretchable.
+ This can cause ugly results.
+
+ A clean solution to this problem is available in GNU `troff',
+ using the requests `chop' to remove the final newline of a
+ diversion, and `unformat' to make the horizontal spaces
+ stretchable again.
+
+
+ .box xxx
+ a funny
+ .br
+ test
+ .br
+ .box
+ .chop xxx
+ .unformat xxx
+ This is \*[xxx].
+ => This is a funny test.
+
+ *Note Gtroff Internals::, for more information.
+
+ - Request: .as name [string]
+ - Request: .as1 name [string]
+ The `as' request is similar to `ds' but appends STRING to the
+ string stored as NAME instead of redefining it. If NAME doesn't
+ exist yet, it is created.
+
+
+ .as sign " with shallots, onions and garlic,
+
+ The `as1' request is similar to `as', but compatibility mode is
+ switched off while the appended string is interpreted. To be more
+ precise, a "compatibility save" input token is inserted at the
+ beginning of the appended string, and a "compatibility restore"
+ input token at the end.
+
+ Rudimentary string manipulation routines are given with the next two
+requests.
+
+ - Request: .substring str n1 [n2]
+ Replace the string named STR with the substring defined by the
+ indices N1 and N2. The first character in the string has index 0.
+ If N2 is omitted, it is taken to be equal to the string's length.
+ If the index value N1 or N2 is negative, it is counted from the
+ end of the string, going backwards: The last character has
+ index -1, the character before the last character has index -2,
+ etc.
+
+
+ .ds xxx abcdefgh
+ .substring xxx 1 -4
+ \*[xxx]
+ => bcde
+
+
+ - Request: .length reg str
+ Compute the number of characters of STR and return it in the
+ number register REG. If REG doesn't exist, it is created. `str'
+ is read in copy mode.
+
+
+ .ds xxx abcd\h'3i'efgh
+ .length yyy \n[xxx]
+ \n[yyy]
+ => 14
+
+
+ - Request: .rn xx yy
+ Rename the request, macro, diversion, or string XX to YY.
+
+ - Request: .rm xx
+ Remove the request, macro, diversion, or string XX. `gtroff'
+ treats subsequent invocations as if the object had never been
+ defined.
+
+ - Request: .als new old
+ Create an alias named NEW for the request, string, macro, or
+ diversion object named OLD. The new name and the old name are
+ exactly equivalent (it is similar to a hard rather than a soft
+ link). If OLD is undefined, `gtroff' generates a warning of type
+ `mac' and ignores the request.
+
+ - Request: .chop xx
+ Remove (chop) the last character from the macro, string, or
+ diversion named XX. This is useful for removing the newline from
+ the end of diversions that are to be interpolated as strings.
+ This command can be used repeatedly; see *Note Gtroff Internals::,
+ for details on nodes inserted additionally by `gtroff'.
+
+ *Note Identifiers::, and *Note Comments::.

+
+
+File: groff, Node: Operators in Conditionals, Next: if-else, Prev: Conditionals and Loops, Up: Conditionals and Loops
+
+Operators in Conditionals
+-------------------------
+
+ In `if' and `while' requests, there are several more operators
+available:
+
+`e'
+`o'
+ True if the current page is even or odd numbered (respectively).
+
+`n'
+ True if the document is being processed in nroff mode (i.e., the
+ `.nroff' command has been issued).
+
+`t'
+ True if the document is being processed in troff mode (i.e., the
+ `.troff' command has been issued).
+
+`v'
+ Always false. This condition is for compatibility with other
+ `troff' versions only.
+
+`'XXX'YYY''
+ True if the string XXX is equal to the string YYY. Other
+ characters can be used in place of the single quotes; the same set
+ of delimiters as for the `\D' escape is used (*note Escapes::).
+ `gtroff' formats the strings before being compared:
+
+
+ .ie "|"\fR|\fP" \
+ true
+ .el \
+ false
+ => true
+
+ The resulting motions, glyph sizes, and fonts have to match,(1)
+ (*note Operators in Conditionals-Footnote-1::) and not the
+ individual motion, size, and font requests. In the previous
+ example, `|' and `\fR|\fP' both result in a roman `|' glyph with
+ the same point size and at the same location on the page, so the
+ strings are equal. If `.ft I' had been added before the `.ie',
+ the result would be "false" because (the first) `|' produces an
+ italic `|' rather than a roman one.
+
+`r XXX'
+ True if there is a number register named XXX.
+
+`d XXX'
+ True if there is a string, macro, diversion, or request named XXX.
+
+`m XXX'
+ True if there is a color named XXX.
+
+`c G'
+ True if there is a glyph G available(2) (*note Operators in
+ Conditionals-Footnote-2::); G is either an ASCII character or a
+ special character (`\(GG' or `\[GGG]'); the condition is also true
+ if G has been defined by the `char' request.
+
+ Note that these operators can't be combined with other operators like
+`:' or `&'; only a leading `!' (without whitespace between the
+exclamation mark and the operator) can be used to negate the result.
+
+
+ .nr xxx 1
+ .ie !r xxx \
+ true
+ .el \
+ false
+ => false
+
+ A whitespace after `!' always evaluates to zero (this bizarre
+behaviour is due to compatibility with UNIX `troff').
+
+
+ .nr xxx 1
+ .ie ! r xxx \
+ true
+ .el \
+ false
+ => r xxx true
+
+ It is possible to omit the whitespace before the argument to the
+`r', `d', and `c' operators.
+
+ *Note Expressions::.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Operators in Conditionals-Footnotes, Up: Operators in Conditionals
+
+ (1) The created output nodes must be identical. *Note Gtroff
+Internals::.
+
+ (2) The name of this conditional operator is a misnomer since it
+tests names of output glyphs.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: if-else, Next: while, Prev: Operators in Conditionals, Up: Conditionals and Loops
+
+if-else
+-------
+
+ `gtroff' has if-then-else constructs like other languages, although
+the formatting can be painful.
+
+ - Request: .if expr anything
+ Evaluate the expression EXPR, and executes ANYTHING (the remainder
+ of the line) if EXPR evaluates to non-zero (true). ANYTHING is
+ interpreted as though it was on a line by itself (except that
+ leading spaces are swallowed). *Note Expressions::, for more info.
+
+
+ .nr xxx 1
+ .nr yyy 2
+ .if ((\n[xxx] == 1) & (\n[yyy] == 2)) true
+ => true
+
+
+ - Request: .nop anything
+ Executes ANYTHING. This is similar to `.if 1'.
+
+ - Request: .ie expr anything
+ - Request: .el anything
+ Use the `ie' and `el' requests to write an if-then-else. The
+ first request is the `if' part and the latter is the `else' part.
+
+
+ .ie n .ls 2 \" double-spacing in nroff
+ .el .ls 1 \" single-spacing in troff
+
+
+ - Escape: \{
+ - Escape: \}
+ In many cases, an if (or if-else) construct needs to execute more
+ than one request. This can be done using the `\{' and `\}'
+ escapes. The following example shows the possible ways to use
+ these escapes (note the position of the opening and closing
+ braces).
+
+
+ .ie t \{\
+ . ds lq ``
+ . ds rq ''
+ .\}
+ .el \
+ .\{\
+ . ds lq "
+ . ds rq "\}
+
+
+ *Note Expressions::.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: while, Prev: if-else, Up: Conditionals and Loops
+
+while
+-----
+
+ `gtroff' provides a looping construct using the `while' request,
+which is used much like the `if' (and related) requests.
+
+ - Request: .while expr anything
+ Evaluate the expression EXPR, and repeatedly execute ANYTHING (the
+ remainder of the line) until EXPR evaluates to 0.
+
+
+ .nr a 0 1
+ .while (\na < 9) \{\
+ \n+a,
+ .\}
+ \n+a
+ => 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
+
+ Some remarks.
+
+ * The body of a `while' request is treated like the body of a
+ `de' request: `gtroff' temporarily stores it in a macro which
+ is deleted after the loop has been exited. It can
+ considerably slow down a macro if the body of the `while'
+ request (within the macro) is large. Each time the macro is
+ executed, the `while' body is parsed and stored again as a
+ temporary macro.
+
+
+ .de xxx
+ . nr num 10
+ . while (\\n[num] > 0) \{\
+ . \" many lines of code
+ . nr num -1
+ . \}
+ ..
+
+ The traditional and ofter better solution (UNIX `troff'
+ doesn't have the `while' request) is to use a recursive macro
+ instead which is parsed only once during its definition.
+
+
+ .de yyy
+ . if (\\n[num] > 0) \{\
+ . \" many lines of code
+ . nr num -1
+ . yyy
+ . \}
+ ..
+ .
+ .de xxx
+ . nr num 10
+ . yyy
+ ..
+
+ Note that the number of available recursion levels is set
+ to 1000 (this is a compile-time constant value of `gtroff').
+
+ * The closing brace of a `while' body must end a line.
+
+
+ .if 1 \{\
+ . nr a 0 1
+ . while (\n[a] < 10) \{\
+ . nop \n+[a]
+ .\}\}
+ => unbalanced \{ \}
+
+
+ - Request: .break
+ Break out of a `while' loop. Be sure not to confuse this with the
+ `br' request (causing a line break).
+
+ - Request: .continue
+ Finish the current iteration of a `while' loop, immediately
+ restarting the next iteration.
+
+ *Note Expressions::.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Writing Macros, Next: Page Motions, Prev: Conditionals and Loops, Up: gtroff Reference
+
+Writing Macros
+==============
+
+ A "macro" is a collection of text and embedded commands which can be
+invoked multiple times. Use macros to define common operations.
+
+ - Request: .de name [end]
+ - Request: .de1 name [end]
+ - Request: .dei name [end]
+ Define a new macro named NAME. `gtroff' copies subsequent lines
+ (starting with the next one) into an internal buffer until it
+ encounters the line `..' (two dots). The optional second argument
+ to `de' changes this to a macro to `.END'.
+
+ There can be whitespace after the first dot in the line containing
+ the ending token (either `.' or macro `END').
+
+ Here a small example macro called `P' which causes a break and
+ inserts some vertical space. It could be used to separate
+ paragraphs.
+
+
+ .de P
+ . br
+ . sp .8v
+ ..
+
+ The following example defines a macro within another. Remember
+ that expansion must be protected twice; once for reading the macro
+ and once for executing.
+
+
+ \# a dummy macro to avoid a warning
+ .de end
+ ..
+ .
+ .de foo
+ . de bar end
+ . nop \f[B]Hallo \\\\$1!\f[]
+ . end
+ ..
+ .
+ .foo
+ .bar Joe
+ => Hallo Joe!
+
+ Since `\f' has no expansion, it isn't necessary to protect its
+ backslash. Had we defined another macro within `bar' which takes
+ a parameter, eight backslashes would be necessary before `$1'.
+
+ The `de1' request turns off compatibility mode while executing the
+ macro. On entry, the current compatibility mode is saved and
+ restored at exit.
+
+
+ .nr xxx 12345
+ .
+ .de aa
+ The value of xxx is \\n[xxx].
+ ..
+ .de1 bb
+ The value of xxx ix \\n[xxx].
+ ..
+ .
+ .cp 1
+ .
+ .aa
+ => warning: number register ' not defined
+ => The value of xxx is 0xxx].
+ .bb
+ => The value of xxx ix 12345.
+
+ The `dei' request defines a macro indirectly. That is, it expands
+ strings whose names are NAME or END before performing the append.
+
+ This:
+
+
+ .ds xx aa
+ .ds yy bb
+ .dei xx yy
+
+ is equivalent to:
+
+
+ .de aa bb
+
+ Using `trace.tmac', you can trace calls to `de' and `de1'.
+
+ Note that macro identifiers are shared with identifiers for
+ strings and diversions.
+
+ - Request: .am xx
+ - Request: .am1 xx
+ - Request: .ami xx yy
+ Works similarly to `de' except it appends onto the macro named XX.
+ So, to make the previously defined `P' macro actually do indented
+ instead of block paragraphs, add the necessary code to the
+ existing macro like this:
+
+
+ .am P
+ .ti +5n
+ ..
+
+ The `am1' request turns off compatibility mode while executing the
+ appended macro piece. To be more precise, a "compatibility save"
+ input token is inserted at the beginning of the appended code, and
+ a "compatibility restore" input token at the end.
+
+ The `ami' request appends indirectly, meaning that `gtroff'
+ expands strings whose names are XX or YY before performing the
+ append.
+
+ Using `trace.tmac', you can trace calls to `am' and `am1'.
+
+ *Note Strings::, for the `als' request to rename a macro.
+
+ The `de', `am', `di', `da', `ds', and `as' requests (together with
+its variants) only create a new object if the name of the macro,
+diversion or string diversion is currently undefined or if it is
+defined to be a request; normally they modify the value of an existing
+object.
+
+ - Request: .return
+ Exit a macro, immediately returning to the caller.

+File: groff, Node: Copy-in Mode, Next: Parameters, Prev: Writing Macros, Up: Writing Macros
+
+Copy-in Mode
+------------
+
+ When `gtroff' reads in the text for a macro, string, or diversion,
+it copies the text (including request lines, but excluding escapes) into
+an internal buffer. Escapes are converted into an internal form,
+except for `\n', `\$', `\*', `\\' and `\<RET>' which are evaluated and
+inserted into the text where the escape was located. This is known as
+"copy-in" mode or "copy" mode.
+
+ What this means is that you can specify when these escapes are to be
+evaluated (either at copy-in time or at the time of use) by insulating
+the escapes with an extra backslash. Compare this to the `\def' and
+`\edef' commands in TeX.
+
+ The following example prints the numbers 20 and 10:
+
+
+ .nr x 20
+ .de y
+ .nr x 10
+ \&\nx
+ \&\\nx
+ ..
+ .y

+File: groff, Node: Parameters, Prev: Copy-in Mode, Up: Writing Macros
+
+Parameters
+----------
+
+ The arguments to a macro or string can be examined using a variety of
+escapes.
+
+ - Register: \n[.$]
+ The number of arguments passed to a macro or string. This is a
+ read-only number register.
+
+ Any individual argument can be retrieved with one of the following
+escapes:
+
+ - Escape: \$N
+ - Escape: \$(NN
+ - Escape: \$[NNN]
+ Retrieve the Nth, NNth or NNNth argument. As usual, the first
+ form only accepts a single number (larger than zero), the second a
+ two-digit number (larger or equal to 10), and the third any
+ positive integer value (larger than zero). Macros and strings can
+ have an unlimited number of arguments. Note that due to copy-in
+ mode, use two backslashes on these in actual use to prevent
+ interpolation until the macro is actually invoked.
+
+ - Request: .shift [n]
+ Shift the arguments 1 position, or as many positions as specified
+ by its argument. After executing this request, argument I becomes
+ argument I-N; arguments 1 to N are no longer available. Shifting
+ by negative amounts is currently undefined.
+
+ - Escape: \$*
+ - Escape: \$@
+ In some cases it is convenient to use all of the arguments at once
+ (for example, to pass the arguments along to another macro). The
+ `\$*' escape concatenates all the arguments separated by spaces. A
+ similar escape is `\$@', which concatenates all the arguments with
+ each surrounded by double quotes, and separated by spaces. If not
+ in compatibility mode, the input level of double quotes is
+ preserved (see *Note Request Arguments::).
+
+ - Escape: \$0
+ The name used to invoke the current macro. The `als' request can
+ make a macro have more than one name.
+
+
+ .de generic-macro
+ . ...
+ . if \\n[error] \{\
+ . tm \\$0: Houston, we have a problem.
+ . return
+ . \}

+ .als foo generic-macro

+Page Motions
+============
+
+ *Note Manipulating Spacing::, for a discussion of the main request
+for vertical motion, `sp'.
+
+ - Request: .mk [reg]
+ - Request: .rt [dist]
+ The request `mk' can be used to mark a location on a page, for
+ movement to later. This request takes a register name as an
+ argument in which to store the current page location. With no
+ argument it stores the location in an internal register. The
+ results of this can be used later by the `rt' or the `sp' request
+ (or the `\v' escape).
+
+ The `rt' request returns _upwards_ to the location marked with the
+ last `mk' request. If used with an argument, return to a position
+ which distance from the top of the page is DIST (no previous call
+ to `mk' is necessary in this case). Default scaling indicator is
+ `v'.

+
+
+ The following escapes give fine control of movements about the page.
+
+ - Escape: \v'E'
+ Move vertically, usually from the current location on the page (if
+ no absolute position operator `|' is used). The argument E
+ specifies the distance to move; positive is downwards and negative
+ upwards. The default scaling indicator for this escape is `v'.
+ Beware, however, that `gtroff' continues text processing at the
+ point where the motion ends, so you should always balance motions
+ to avoid interference with text processing.
+
+ `\v' doesn't trigger a trap. This can be quite useful; for
+ example, consider a page bottom trap macro which prints a marker
+ in the margin to indicate continuation of a footnote or something
+ similar.
+
+ There are some special-case escapes for vertical motion.
+
+ - Escape: \r
+ Move upwards 1v.
+
+ - Escape: \u
+ Move upwards .5v.
+
+ - Escape: \d
+ Move down .5v.
+
+ - Escape: \h'E'
+ Move horizontally, usually from the current location (if no
+ absolute position operator `|' is used). The expression E
+ indicates how far to move: positive is rightwards and negative
+ leftwards. The default scaling indicator for this escape is `m'.
+
+ There are a number of special-case escapes for horizontal motion.
+
+ - Escape: \<SP>
+ An unbreakable and unpaddable (i.e. not expanded during filling)
+ space. (Note: This is a backslash followed by a space.)
+
+ - Escape: \~
+ An unbreakable space that stretches like a normal inter-word space
+ when a line is adjusted.
+
+ - Escape: \|
+ A 1/6th em space. Ignored for TTY output devices (rounded to
+ zero).
+
+ - Escape: \^
+ A 1/12th em space. Ignored for TTY output devices (rounded to
+ zero).
+
+ - Escape: \0
+ A space the size of a digit.

+ => The length of the string `abc' is 72u.
+
+ Font changes may occur in TEXT which don't affect current settings.
+

+ The highest and lowest point of the baseline, respectively,
+ in TEXT.
+
+ `rst'
+ `rsb'
+ Like the `st' and `sb' registers, but takes account of the
+ heights and depths of glyphs. With other words, this gives
+ the highest and lowest point of TEXT.
+
+ `ct'
+ Defines the kinds of glyphs occurring in TEXT:

+
+Drawing Requests
+================
+
+ `gtroff' provides a number of ways to draw lines and other figures
+on the page. Used in combination with the page motion commands (see
+*Note Page Motions::, for more info), a wide variety of figures can be
+drawn. However, for complex drawings these operations can be quite
+cumbersome, and it may be wise to use graphic preprocessors like `gpic'
+or `ggrn'. *Note gpic::, and *Note ggrn::, for more information.
+
+ All drawing is done via escapes.
+
+ - Escape: \l'L'
+ - Escape: \l'LG'
+ Draw a line horizontally. L is the length of the line to be
+ drawn. If it is positive, start the line at the current location
+ and draw to the right; its end point is the new current location.
+ Negative values are handled differently: The line starts at the
+ current location and draws to the left, but the current location
+ doesn't move.
+
+ L can also be specified absolutely (i.e. with a leading `|') which
+ draws back to the beginning of the input line. Default scaling
+ indicator is `m'.
+
+ The optional second parameter G is a glyph to draw the line with.
+ If this second argument is not specified, `gtroff' uses the
+ underscore glyph, `\[ru]'.
+
+ To separate the two arguments (to prevent `gtroff' from
+ interpreting a drawing glyph as a scaling indicator if the glyph is
+ represented by a single character) use `\&'.
+
+ Here a small useful example:
+
+
+ .de box
+ \[br]\\$*\[br]\l'|0\[rn]'\l'|0\[ul]'
+ ..
+
+ Note that this works by outputting a box rule (a vertical line),
+ then the text given as an argument and then another box rule.
+ Finally, the line drawing escapes both draw from the current
+ location to the beginning of the _input_ line - this works because
+ the line length is negative, not moving the current point.
+
+ - Escape: \L'L'
+ - Escape: \L'LG'
+ Draw vertical lines. Its parameters are similar to the `\l'
+ escape, except that the default scaling indicator is `v'. The
+ movement is downwards for positive values, and upwards for
+ negative values. The default glyph is the box rule glyph,
+ `\[br]'. As with the vertical motion escapes, text processing
+ blindly continues where the line ends.
+
+
+ This is a \L'3v'test.
+
+ Here the result, produced with `grotty'.
+
+
+ This is a
+ |
+ |
+ |test.
+
+
+ - Escape: \D'COMMAND ARG ...'
+ The `\D' escape provides a variety of drawing functions. Note
+ that on character devices, only vertical and horizontal lines are
+ supported within `grotty'; other devices may only support a subset
+ of the available drawing functions.
+
+ The default scaling indicator for all subcommands of `\D' is `m'
+ for horizontal distances and `v' for vertical ones. Exceptions
+ are `\D'f ...'' and `\D't ...'' which use `u' as the default.
+
+ `\D'l DX DY''
+ Draw a line from the current location to the relative point
+ specified by (DX,DY).
+
+ The following example is a macro for creating a box around a
+ text string; for simplicity, the box margin is taken as a
+ fixed value, 0.2m.
+
+
+ .de BOX
+ . nr @wd \w'\\$1'
+ \h'.2m'\
+ \h'-.2m'\v'(.2m - \\n[rsb]u)'\
+ \D'l 0 -(\\n[rst]u - \\n[rsb]u + .4m)'\
+ \D'l (\\n[@wd]u + .4m) 0'\
+ \D'l 0 (\\n[rst]u - \\n[rsb]u + .4m)'\
+ \D'l -(\\n[@wd]u + .4m) 0'\
+ \h'.2m'\v'-(.2m - \\n[rsb]u)'\
+ \\$1\
+ \h'.2m'
+ ..
+
+ First, the width of the string is stored in register `@wd'.
+ Then, four lines are drawn to form a box, properly offset by
+ the box margin. The registers `rst' and `rsb' are set by the
+ `\w' escape, containing the largest height and depth of the
+ whole string.
+
+ `\D'c D''
+ Draw a circle with a diameter of D with the leftmost point at
+ the current position.
+
+ `\D'C D''
+ Draw a solid circle with the same parameters as an outlined
+ circle. No outline is drawn.
+
+ `\D'e X Y''
+ Draw an ellipse with a horizontal diameter of X and a vertical
+ diameter of Y with the leftmost point at the current position.
+
+ `\D'E X Y''
+ Draw a solid ellipse with the same parameters as an outlined
+ ellipse. No outline is drawn.
+
+ `\D'a DX1 DY1 DX2 DY2''
+ Draw an arc clockwise from the current location through the
+ two specified relative locations (DX1,DY1) and (DX2,DY2).
+ The coordinates of the first point are relative to the
+ current position, and the coordinates of the second point are
+ relative to the first point.
+
+ `\D'~ DX1 DY1 DX2 DY2 ...''
+ Draw a spline from the current location to the relative point
+ (DX1,DY1) and then to (DX2,DY2), and so on.
+
+ `\D'f N''
+ Set the shade of gray to be used for filling solid objects
+ to N; N must be an integer between 0 and 1000, where 0
+ corresponds solid white and 1000 to solid black, and values
+ in between correspond to intermediate shades of gray. This
+ applies only to solid circles, solid ellipses, and solid
+ polygons. By default, a level of 1000 is used.
+
+ `\D'p DX1 DY1 DX2 DY2 ...''
+ Draw a polygon from the current location to the relative
+ position (DX1,DY1) and then to (DX2,DY2) and so on. When the
+ specified data points are exhausted, a line is drawn back to
+ the starting point.
+
+ `\D'P DX1 DY1 DX2 DY2 ...''
+ Draw a solid polygon with the same parameters as an outlined
+ polygon. No outline is drawn.
+
+ Here a better variant of the box macro to fill the box with
+ some color. Note that the box must be drawn before the text
+ since colors in `gtroff' are not transparent; the filled
+ polygon would hide the text completely.
+
+
+ .de BOX
+ . nr @wd \w'\\$1'
+ \h'.2m'\
+ \h'-.2m'\v'(.2m - \\n[rsb]u)'\
+ \M[lightcyan]\
+ \D'P 0 -(\\n[rst]u - \\n[rsb]u + .4m) \
+ (\\n[@wd]u + .4m) 0 \
+ 0 (\\n[rst]u - \\n[rsb]u + .4m) \
+ -(\\n[@wd]u + .4m) 0'\
+ \h'.2m'\v'-(.2m - \\n[rsb]u)'\
+ \M[]\
+ \\$1\
+ \h'.2m'
+ ..
+
+ `\D't N''
+ Set the current line thickness to N machine units. A value of
+ zero selects the smallest available line thickness. A
+ negative value makes the line thickness proportional to the
+ current point size (this is the default behaviour of AT&T
+ `troff').
+
+ *Note Graphics Commands::.
+
+ - Escape: \b'STRING'
+ "Pile" a sequence of glyphs vertically, and center it vertically
+ on the current line. Use it to build large brackets and braces.
+
+ Here an example how to create a large opening brace:
+
+
+ \b'\[lt]\[bv]\[lk]\[bv]\[lb]'
+
+ The first glyph is on the top, the last glyph in STRING is at the
+ bottom. Note that `gtroff' separates the glyphs vertically by 1m,
+ and the whole object is centered 0.5m above the current baseline;
+ the largest glyph width is used as the width for the whole object.
+ This rather unflexible positioning algorithm doesn't work with
+ `-Tdvi' since the bracket pieces vary in height for this device.
+ Instead, use the `eqn' preprocessor.

+Traps
+=====
+
+ "Traps" are locations, which, when reached, call a specified macro.
+These traps can occur at a given location on the page, at a given
+location in the current diversion, at a blank line, after a certain
+number of input lines, or at the end of input.
+
+ Setting a trap is also called "planting". It is also said that a
+trap is "sprung" if the associated macro is executed.

+
+Page Location Traps
+-------------------
+
+ "Page location traps" perform an action when `gtroff' reaches or
+passes a certain vertical location on the page. Page location traps
+have a variety of purposes, including:
+
+ * setting headers and footers
+
+ * setting body text in multiple columns
+
+ * setting footnotes
+
+ - Request: .vpt flag
+ - Register: \n[.vpt]
+ Enable vertical position traps if FLAG is non-zero, or disables
+ them otherwise. Vertical position traps are traps set by the `wh'
+ or `dt' requests. Traps set by the `it' request are not vertical
+ position traps. The parameter that controls whether vertical
+ position traps are enabled is global. Initially vertical position
+ traps are enabled. The current setting of this is available in the
+ `.vpt' read-only number register.
+
+ - Request: .wh dist [macro]
+ Set a page location trap. Positive values for DIST set the trap
+ relative to the top of the page; negative values set the trap
+ relative to the bottom of the page. Default scaling indicator is
+ `v'.
+
+ MACRO is the name of the macro to execute when the trap is sprung.
+ If MACRO is missing, remove the first trap (if any) at DIST.
+
+ The following is a simple example of how many macro packages set
+ headers and footers.
+
+
+ .de hd \" Page header
+ ' sp .5i
+ . tl 'Title''date'
+ ' sp .3i
+ ..
+ .
+ .de fo \" Page footer
+ ' sp 1v
+ . tl ''%''
+ ' bp
+ ..
+ .
+ .wh 0 hd \" trap at top of the page
+ .wh -1i fo \" trap one inch from bottom
+
+ A trap at or below the bottom of the page is ignored; it can be
+ made active by either moving it up or increasing the page length
+ so that the trap is on the page.
+
+ It is possible to have more than one trap at the same location; to
+ do so, the traps must be defined at different locations, then
+ moved together with the `ch' request; otherwise the second trap
+ would replace the first one. Earlier defined traps hide later
+ defined traps if moved to the same position (the many empty lines
+ caused by the `bp' request are omitted):
+
+
+ .de a
+ . nop a
+ ..
+ .de b
+ . nop b
+ ..
+ .de c
+ . nop c
+ ..
+ .
+ .wh 1i a
+ .wh 2i b
+ .wh 3i c
+ .bp
+ => a b c
+
+
+ .ch b 1i
+ .ch c 1i
+ .bp
+ => a
+
+
+ .ch a 0.5i
+ .bp
+ => a b
+
+
+ - Register: \n[.t]
+ A read-only number register holding the distance to the next trap.
+
+ If there are no traps between the current position and the bottom
+ of the page, it contains the distance to the page bottom. In a
+ diversion, the distance to the page bottom is infinite (the
+ returned value is the biggest integer which can be represented in
+ `groff') if there are no diversion traps.
+
+ - Request: .ch macro dist
+ Change the location of a trap. The first argument is the name of
+ the macro to be invoked at the trap, and the second argument is
+ the new location for the trap (note that the parameters are
+ specified the opposite of the `wh' request). This is useful for
+ building up footnotes in a diversion to allow more space at the
+ bottom of the page for them.
+
+ Default scaling indicator for DIST is `v'. If DIST is missing,
+ the trap is removed.
+
+
+ - Register: \n[.ne]
+ The read-only number register `.ne' contains the amount of space
+ that was needed in the last `ne' request that caused a trap to be
+ sprung. Useful in conjunction with the `.trunc' register. *Note
+ Page Control::, for more information.
+
+ - Register: \n[.trunc]
+ A read-only register containing the amount of vertical space
+ truncated by the most recently sprung vertical position trap, or,
+ if the trap was sprung by an `ne' request, minus the amount of
+ vertical motion produced by the `ne' request. In other words, at
+ the point a trap is sprung, it represents the difference of what
+ the vertical position would have been but for the trap, and what
+ the vertical position actually is.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Diversion Traps, Next: Input Line Traps, Prev: Page Location Traps, Up: Traps
+
+Diversion Traps
+---------------
+
+ - Request: .dt dist macro
+ Set a trap _within_ a diversion. DIST is the location of the trap
+ (identical to the `.wh' request; default scaling indicator is `v')
+ and MACRO is the name of the macro to be invoked. The number
+ register `.t' still works within diversions. *Note Diversions::,
+ for more information.

+
+Input Line Traps
+----------------
+
+ - Request: .it n macro
+ - Request: .itc n macro
+ Set an input line trap. N is the number of lines of input which
+ may be read before springing the trap, MACRO is the macro to be
+ invoked. Request lines are not counted as input lines.
+
+ For example, one possible use is to have a macro which prints the

+
+
+ .de B
+ . it \\$1 B-end
+ . ft B
+ ..
+ .
+ .de B-end
+ . ft R
+ ..
+
+ The `itc' request is identical, except that a line interrupted
+ with `\c' counts as one input line.
+
+ Both requests are associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::); switching to another environment disables the
+ current input trap, and going back reactivates it, restoring the

+Diversions
+==========
+
+ In `gtroff' it is possible to "divert" text into a named storage
+area. Due to the similarity to defining macros it is sometimes said to
+be stored in a macro. This is used for saving text for output at a
+later time, which is useful for keeping blocks of text on the same
+page, footnotes, tables of contents, and indices.
+
+ For orthogonality it is said that `gtroff' is in the "top-level
+diversion" if no diversion is active (i.e., the data is diverted to the
+output device).
+
+ - Request: .di macro
+ - Request: .da macro
+ Begin a diversion. Like the `de' request, it takes an argument of
+ a macro name to divert subsequent text into. The `da' macro
+ appends to an existing diversion.
+
+ `di' or `da' without an argument ends the diversion.
+
+ - Request: .box macro
+ - Request: .boxa macro
+ Begin (or appends to) a diversion like the `di' and `da' requests.
+ The difference is that `box' and `boxa' do not include a
+ partially-filled line in the diversion.
+
+ Compare this:
+
+
+ Before the box.
+ .box xxx
+ In the box.
+ .br
+ .box
+ After the box.
+ .br
+ => Before the box. After the box.
+ .xxx
+ => In the box.
+
+ with this:
+
+
+ Before the diversion.
+ .di yyy
+ In the diversion.
+ .br
+ .di
+ After the diversion.
+ .br
+ => After the diversion.
+ .yyy
+ => Before the diversion. In the diversion.
+
+ `box' or `boxa' without an argument ends the diversion.
+
+ - Register: \n[.z]
+ - Register: \n[.d]
+ Diversions may be nested. The read-only number register `.z'
+ contains the name of the current diversion (this is a string-valued
+ register). The read-only number register `.d' contains the current
+ vertical place in the diversion. If not in a diversion it is the
+ same as the register `nl'.
+
+ - Register: \n[.h]
+ The "high-water mark" on the current page. It corresponds to the
+ text baseline of the lowest line on the page. This is a read-only
+ register.
+
+
+ .tm .h==\n[.h], nl==\n[nl]
+ => .h==0, nl==-1
+ This is a test.
+ .br
+ .sp 2
+ .tm .h==\n[.h], nl==\n[nl]
+ => .h==40, nl==120
+
+ As can be seen in the previous example, empty lines are not
+ considered in the return value of the `.h' register.
+
+ - Register: \n[dn]
+ - Register: \n[dl]
+ After completing a diversion, the read-write number registers `dn'
+ and `dl' contain the vertical and horizontal size of the diversion.

+
+
+ - Escape: \!
+ - Escape: \?ANYTHING\?
+ Prevent requests, macros, and escapes from being interpreted when
+ read into a diversion. This takes the given text and
+ "transparently" embeds it into the diversion. This is useful for
+ macros which shouldn't be invoked until the diverted text is
+ actually output.
+
+ The `\!' escape transparently embeds text up to and including the
+ end of the line. The `\?' escape transparently embeds text until
+ the next occurrence of the `\?' escape. For example:
+
+
+ \?ANYTHING\?
+
+ ANYTHING may not contain newlines; use `\!' to embed newlines in
+ a diversion. The escape sequence `\?' is also recognized in copy
+ mode and turned into a single internal code; it is this code that
+ terminates ANYTHING. Thus the following example prints 4.
+
+
+ .nr x 1
+ .nf
+ .di d
+ \?\\?\\\\?\\\\\\\\nx\\\\?\\?\?
+ .di
+ .nr x 2
+ .di e
+ .d
+ .di
+ .nr x 3
+ .di f
+ .e
+ .di
+ .nr x 4
+ .f
+
+ Both escapes read the data in copy mode.
+
+ If `\!' is used in the top-level diversion, its argument is
+ directly embedded into the `gtroff' intermediate output. This can
+ be used for example to control a postprocessor which processes the
+ data before it is sent to the device driver.
+
+ The `\?' escape used in the top-level diversion produces no output
+ at all; its argument is simply ignored.
+
+ - Request: .output string
+ Emit STRING directly to the `gtroff' intermediate output (subject
+ to copy-mode interpretation); this is similar to `\!' used at the
+ top level. An initial double quote in STRING is stripped off to
+ allow initial blanks.
+
+ This request can't be used before the first page has started - if
+ you get an error, simply insert `.br' before the `output' request.
+
+ Without argument, `output' is ignored.
+
+ Use with caution! It is normally only needed for mark-up used by a
+ postprocessor which does something with the output before sending
+ it to the output device, filtering out `string' again.
+
+ - Request: .asciify div
+ "Unformat" the diversion specified by DIV in such a way that ASCII
+ characters, characters translated with the `trin' request, space
+ characters, and some escape sequences that were formatted and
+ diverted are treated like ordinary input characters when the
+ diversion is reread. It can be also used for gross hacks; for
+ example, the following sets register `n' to 1.
+
+
+ .tr @.
+ .di x
+ @nr n 1
+ .br
+ .di
+ .tr @@
+ .asciify x
+ .x
+
+ *Note Copy-in Mode::.
+
+ - Request: .unformat div
+ Like `asciify', unformat the specified diversion. However,
+ `unformat' only unformats spaces and tabs between words.
+ Unformatted tabs are treated as input tokens, and spaces are
+ stretchable again.
+
+ The vertical size of lines is not preserved; glyph information
+ (font, font size, space width, etc.) is retained.

+Environments
+============
+
+ It happens frequently that some text should be printed in a certain
+format regardless of what may be in effect at the time, for example, in
+a trap invoked macro to print headers and footers. To solve this
+`gtroff' processes text in "environments". An environment contains
+most of the parameters that control text processing. It is possible to
+switch amongst these environments; by default `gtroff' processes text
+in environment 0. The following is the information kept in an
+environment.
+
+ * font parameters (size, family, style, glyph height and slant, space
+ and sentence space size)
+
+ * page parameters (line length, title length, vertical spacing, line
+ spacing, indentation, line numbering, centering, right-justifying,
+ underlining, hyphenation data)
+
+ * fill and adjust mode
+
+ * tab stops, tab and leader characters, escape character, no-break
+ and hyphen indicators, margin character data
+
+ * partially collected lines
+
+ * input traps
+
+ * drawing and fill colours
+
+ These environments may be given arbitrary names (see *Note
+Identifiers::, for more info). Old versions of `troff' only had
+environments named `0', `1', and `2'.
+
+ - Request: .ev [env]
+ - Register: \n[.ev]
+ Switch to another environment. The argument ENV is the name of
+ the environment to switch to. With no argument, `gtroff' switches
+ back to the previous environment. There is no limit on the number
+ of named environments; they are created the first time that they
+ are referenced. The `.ev' read-only register contains the name or
+ number of the current environment. This is a string-valued
+ register.
+
+ Note that a call to `ev' (with argument) pushes the previously
+ active environment onto a stack. If, say, environments `foo',
+ `bar', and `zap' are called (in that order), the first `ev'
+ request without parameter switches back to environment `bar'
+ (which is popped off the stack), and a second call switches back
+ to environment `foo'.
+
+ Here is an example:
+
+
+ .ev footnote-env
+ .fam N
+ .ps 6
+ .vs 8
+ .ll -.5i
+ .ev
+
+ ...
+
+ .ev footnote-env
+ \(dg Note the large, friendly letters.
+ .ev
+
+
+ - Request: .evc env
+ Copy the environment ENV into the current environment.
+
+ The following environment data is not copied:
+
+ * Partially filled lines.
+
+ * The status whether the previous line was interrupted.
+
+ * The number of lines still to center, or to right-justify, or
+ to underline (with or without underlined spaces); they are
+ set to zero.
+
+ * The status whether a temporary indent is active.
+
+ * Input traps and its associated data.
+
+ * Line numbering mode is disabled; it can be reactivated with
+ `.nm +0'.
+
+ * The number of consecutive hyphenated lines (set to zero).
+
+ - Register: \n[.cht]
+ - Register: \n[.cdp]
+ - Register: \n[.csk]
+ The `\n[.cht]' register contains the maximum extent (above the
+ baseline) of the last glyph added to the current environment.
+
+ The `\n[.cdp]' register contains the maximum extent (below the
+ baseline) of the last glyph added to the current environment.
+
+ The `\n[.csk]' register contains the "skew" (how far to the right
+ of the glyph's center that `gtroff' shold place an accent) of the
+ last glyph added to the current environment.

+Suppressing output
+==================
+
+ - Escape: \ONUM
+ Disable or enable output depending on the value of NUM:
+
+ `\O0'
+ Disable any glyphs from being emitted to the device driver,
+ provided that the escape occurs at the outer level (see
+ `\O[3]' and `\O[4]'). Motion is not suppressed so
+ effectively `\O[0]' means _pen up_.
+
+ `\O1'
+ Enable output of glyphs, provided that the escape occurs at
+ the outer level.
+
+ `\O0' and `\O1' also reset the four registers `opminx', `opminy',
+ `opmaxx', and `opmaxy' to -1. *Note Register Index::. These four
+ registers mark the top left and bottom right hand corners of a box
+ which encompasses all written glyphs.
+
+ For example the input text:
+
+
+ Hello \O[0]world \O[1]this is a test.
+
+ produces the following output:
+
+
+ Hello this is a test.
+
+ `\O2'
+ Provided that the escape occurs at the outer level, enable
+ output of glyphs and also write out to `stderr' the page
+ number and four registers encompassing the glyphs previously
+ written since the last call to `\O'.
+
+ `\O3'
+ Begin a nesting level. At start-up, `gtroff' is at outer
+ level.
+
+ `\O4'
+ End a nesting level.
+
+ `\O[5PFILENAME]'
+ This escape is `grohtml' specific. Provided that this escape
+ occurs at the outer nesting level write the `filename' to
+ `stderr'. The position of the image, P, must be specified
+ and must be one of `l', `r', `c', or `i' (left, right,
+ centered, inline). FILENAME will be associated with the
+ production of the next inline image.

+
+Colors
+======
+
+ - Request: .color [n]
+ - Register: \n[.color]
+ If N is missing or non-zero, activate colors (this is the default);
+ otherwise, turn it off.
+
+ The read-only number register `.color' is 1 if colors are active,
+ 0 otherwise.
+
+ Internally, `color' sets a global flag; it does not produce a
+ token. Similar to the `cp' request, you should use it at the
+ beginning of your document to control color output.
+
+ Colors can be also turned off with the `-c' command line option.
+
+ - Request: .defcolor ident scheme color_components
+ Define color with name IDENT. SCHEME can be one of the following
+ values: `rgb' (three components), `cym' (three components), `cmyk'
+ (four components), and `gray' or `grey' (one component).
+
+ Color components can be given either as a hexadecimal string or as
+ positive decimal integers in the range 0-65535. A hexadecimal
+ string contains all color components concatenated. It must start
+ with either `#' or `##'; the former specifies hex values in the
+ range 0-255 (which are internally multiplied by 257), the latter
+ in the range 0-65535. Examples: `#FFC0CB' (pink), `##ffff0000ffff'
+ (magenta). The default color name value is device-specific
+ (usually black). It is possible that the default color for `\m'
+ and `\M' is not identical.
+
+ A new scaling indicator `f' has been introduced which multiplies
+ its value by 65536; this makes it convenient to specify color
+ components as fractions in the range 0 to 1 (1f equals 65536u).
+ Example:
+
+
+ .defcolor darkgreen rgb 0.1f 0.5f 0.2f
+
+ Note that `f' is the default scaling indicator for the `defcolor'
+ request, thus the above statement is equivalent to
+
+
+ .defcolor darkgreen rgb 0.1 0.5 0.2
+
+
+ - Escape: \mC
+ - Escape: \m(CO
+ - Escape: \m[COLOR]
+ Set drawing color. The following example shows how to turn the
+ next four words red.
+
+
+ \m[red]these are in red\m[] and these words are in black.
+
+ The escape `\m[]' returns to the previous color.
+
+ The drawing color is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+ Note that `\m' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'. As a
+ consequence, it can be used in requests like `mc' (which expects a
+ single character as an argument) to change the color on the fly:
+
+
+ .mc \m[red]x\m[]
+
+
+ - Escape: \MC
+ - Escape: \M(CO
+ - Escape: \M[COLOR]
+ Set background color for filled objects drawn with the `\D'...''
+ commands.
+
+ A red ellipse can be created with the following code:
+
+
+ \M[red]\h'0.5i'\D'E 2i 1i'\M[]
+
+ The escape `\M[]' returns to the previous fill color.
+
+ The fill color is associated with the current environment (*note
+ Environments::).
+
+ Note that `\M' doesn't produce an input token in `gtroff'.

+
+I/O
+===
+
+ `gtroff' has several requests for including files:
+
+ - Request: .so file
+ Read in the specified FILE and includes it in place of the `so'
+ request. This is quite useful for large documents, e.g. keeping
+ each chapter in a separate file. *Note gsoelim::, for more
+ information.
+
+ Since `gtroff' replaces the `so' request with the contents of
+ `file', it makes a difference whether the data is terminated with
+ a newline or not: Assuming that file `xxx' contains the word `foo'
+ without a final newline, this
+
+
+ This is
+ .so xxx
+ bar
+
+ yields `This is foobar'.
+
+ - Request: .pso command
+ Read the standard output from the specified COMMAND and includes
+ it in place of the `pso' request.
+
+ This request causes an error if used in safer mode (which is the
+ default). Use `groff''s or `troff''s `-U' option to activate
+ unsafe mode.
+
+ The comment regarding a final newline for the `so' request is valid
+ for `pso' also.
+
+ - Request: .mso file
+ Identical to the `so' request except that `gtroff' searches for
+ the specified FILE in the same directories as macro files for the
+ the `-m' command line option. If the file name to be included has
+ the form `NAME.tmac' and it isn't found, `mso' tries to include
+ `tmac.NAME' and vice versa.
+
+ - Request: .trf file
+ - Request: .cf file
+ Transparently output the contents of FILE. Each line is output as
+ if it were preceded by `\!'; however, the lines are not subject to
+ copy mode interpretation. If the file does not end with a newline,
+ then a newline is added (`trf' only). For example, to define a
+ macro `x' containing the contents of file `f', use
+
+
+ .di x
+ .trf f
+ .di
+
+ Both `trf' and `cf', when used in a diversion, embeds an object in
+ the diversion which, when reread, causes the contents of FILE to
+ be transparently copied through to the output. In UNIX `troff',
+ the contents of FILE is immediately copied through to the output
+ regardless of whether there is a current diversion; this behaviour
+ is so anomalous that it must be considered a bug.
+
+ While `cf' copies the contents of FILE completely unprocessed,
+ `trf' disallows characters such as NUL that are not valid `gtroff'
+ input characters (*note Identifiers::).
+
+ Both requests cause a line break.
+
+ - Request: .nx [file]
+ Force `gtroff' to continue processing of the file specified as an
+ argument. If no argument is given, immediately jump to the end of
+ file.
+
+ - Request: .rd [prompt [arg1 arg2 ...]]
+ Read from standard input, and include what is read as though it
+ were part of the input file. Text is read until a blank line is
+ encountered.
+
+ If standard input is a TTY input device (keyboard), write PROMPT
+ to standard error, followed by a colon (or send BEL for a beep if
+ no argument is given).
+
+ Arguments after PROMPT are available for the input. For example,
+ the line
+
+
+ .rd data foo bar
+
+ with the input `This is \$2.' prints
+
+
+ This is bar.
+
+
+ Using the `nx' and `rd' requests, it is easy to set up form letters.
+The form letter template is constructed like this, putting the
+following lines into a file called `repeat.let':
+
+
+ .ce
+ \*(td
+ .sp 2
+ .nf
+ .rd
+ .sp
+ .rd
+ .fi
+ Body of letter.
+ .bp
+ .nx repeat.let
+
+When this is run, a file containing the following lines should be
+redirected in. Note that requests included in this file are executed
+as though they were part of the form letter. The last block of input
+is the `ex' request which tells `groff' to stop processing. If this
+was not there, `groff' would not know when to stop.

+
+ Dear Mr. Adollar,
+
+ .ex
+
+ - Request: .pi pipe
+ Pipe the output of `gtroff' to the shell command(s) specified by
+ PIPE. This request must occur before `gtroff' has a chance to
+ print anything.
+
+ `pi' causes an error if used in safer mode (which is the default).
+ Use `groff''s or `troff''s `-U' option to activate unsafe mode.
+
+ Multiple calls to `pi' are allowed, acting as a chain. For
+ example,
+
+
+ .pi foo
+ .pi bar
+ ...
+
+ is the same as `.pi foo | bar'.
+
+ Note that the intermediate output format of `gtroff' is piped to
+ the specified commands. Consequently, calling `groff' without the
+ `-Z' option normally causes a fatal error.
+
+ - Request: .sy cmds
+ - Register: \n[systat]
+ Execute the shell command(s) specified by CMDS. The output is not
+ saved anyplace, so it is up to the user to do so.
+
+ This request causes an error if used in safer mode (which is the
+ default). Use `groff''s or `troff''s `-U' option to activate
+ unsafe mode.
+
+ For example, the following code fragment introduces the current
+ time into a document:
+
+
+ .sy perl -e 'printf ".nr H %d\\n.nr M %d\\n.nr S %d\\n",\
+ (localtime(time))[2,1,0]' > /tmp/x\n[$$]
+ .so /tmp/x\n[$$]
+ .sy rm /tmp/x\n[$$]
+ \nH:\nM:\nS
+
+ Note that this works by having the `perl' script (run by `sy')
+ print out the `nr' requests which set the number registers `H',
+ `M', and `S', and then reads those commands in with the `so'
+ request.
+
+ For most practical purposes, the number registers `seconds',
+ `minutes', and `hours' which are initialized at start-up of
+ `gtroff' should be sufficient. Use the `af' request to get a
+ formatted output:
+
+
+ .af hours 00
+ .af minutes 00
+ .af seconds 00
+ \n[hours]:\n[minutes]:\n[seconds]
+
+ The `systat' read-write number register contains the return value
+ of the `system()' function executed by the last `sy' request.
+
+ - Request: .open stream file
+ - Request: .opena stream file
+ Open the specified FILE for writing and associates the specified
+ STREAM with it.
+
+ The `opena' request is like `open', but if the file exists, append
+ to it instead of truncating it.
+
+ Both `open' and `opena' cause an error if used in safer mode
+ (which is the default). Use `groff''s or `troff''s `-U' option to
+ activate unsafe mode.
+
+ - Request: .write stream data
+ - Request: .writec stream data
+ Write to the file associated with the specified STREAM. The
+ stream must previously have been the subject of an open request.
+ The remainder of the line is interpreted as the `ds' request reads
+ its second argument: A leading `"' is stripped, and it is read in
+ copy-in mode.
+
+ The `writec' request is like `write', but only `write' appends a
+ newline to the data.
+
+ - Request: .writem stream xx
+ Write the contents of the macro or string XX to the file
+ associated with the specified STREAM.
+
+ XX is read in copy mode, i.e., already formatted elements are
+ ignored. Consequently, diversions must be unformatted with the
+ `asciify' request before calling `writem'. Usually, this means a
+ loss of information.
+
+ - Request: .close stream
+ Close the specified STREAM; the stream is no longer an acceptable
+ argument to the `write' request.
+
+ Here a simple macro to write an index entry.
+
+
+ .open idx test.idx
+ .
+ .de IX
+ . write idx \\n[%] \\$*
+ ..
+ .
+ .IX test entry
+ .
+ .close idx
+
+
+ - Escape: \VE
+ - Escape: \V(EV
+ - Escape: \V[ENV]
+ Interpolate the contents of the specified environment variable ENV
+ (one-character name E, two-character name EV) as returned by the
+ function `getenv'. `\V' is interpreted in copy-in mode.

+Postprocessor Access
+====================
+
+ There are two escapes which give information directly to the
+postprocessor. This is particularly useful for embedding POSTSCRIPT
+into the final document.
+
+ - Escape: \X'XXX'
+ Embeds its argument into the `gtroff' output preceded with `x X'.
+
+ The escapes `\&', `\)', `\%', and `\:' are ignored within `\X',
+ `\ ' and `\~' are converted to single space characters. All other
+ escapes (except `\\' which produces a backslash) cause an error.
+
+ If the `use_charnames_in_special' keyword is set in the `DESC'
+ file, special characters no longer cause an error; the name XX is
+ represented as `\(XX)' in the `x X' output command. Additionally,
+ the backslash is represented as `\\'.
+
+ `use_charnames_in_special' is currently used by `grohtml' only.
+
+ - Escape: \YN
+ - Escape: \Y(NM
+ - Escape: \Y[NAME]
+ This is approximately equivalent to `\X'\*[NAME]'' (one-character
+ name N, two-character name NM). However, the contents of the
+ string or macro NAME are not interpreted; also it is permitted for
+ NAME to have been defined as a macro and thus contain newlines (it
+ is not permitted for the argument to `\X' to contain newlines).
+ The inclusion of newlines requires an extension to the UNIX `troff'
+ output format, and confuses drivers that do not know about this
+ extension (*note Device Control Commands::).

+
+ This section documents parts of `gtroff' which cannot (yet) be
+categorized elsewhere in this manual.
+
+ - Request: .nm [start [inc [space [indent]]]]
+ Print line numbers. START is the line number of the _next_ output
+ line. INC indicates which line numbers are printed. For example,
+ the value 5 means to emit only line numbers which are multiples
+ of 5; this defaults to 1. SPACE is the space to be left between
+ the number and the text; this defaults to one digit space. The
+ fourth argument is the indentation of the line numbers, defaulting
+ to zero. Both SPACE and INDENT are given as multiples of digit
+ spaces; they can be negative also. Without any arguments, line
+ numbers are turned off.
+
+ `gtroff' reserves three digit spaces for the line number (which is
+ printed right-justified) plus the amount given by INDENT; the
+ output lines are concatenated to the line numbers, separated by
+ SPACE, and _without_ reducing the line length. Depending on the
+ value of the horizontal page offset (as set with the `po'
+ request), line numbers which are longer than the reserved space
+ stick out to the left, or the whole line is moved to the right.
+
+ Parameters corresponding to missing arguments are not changed; any
+ non-digit argument (to be more precise, any argument starting with
+ a character valid as a delimiter for identifiers) is also treated
+ as missing.
+
+ If line numbering has been disabled with a call to `nm' without an
+ argument, it can be reactivated with `.nm +0', using the
+ previously active line numbering parameters.
+
+ The parameters of `nm' are associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::). The current output line number is
+ available in the number register `ln'.

+
+
+ - Request: .nn [skip]
+ Temporarily turn off line numbering. The argument is the number
+ of lines not to be numbered; this defaults to 1.
+
+ - Request: .mc glyph [dist]
+ Print a "margin character" to the right of the text.(1) (*note
+ Miscellaneous-Footnote-1::) The first argument is the glyph to be
+ printed. The second argument is the distance away from the right
+ margin. If missing, the previously set value is used; default is
+ 10pt). For text lines that are too long (that is, longer than the
+ text length plus DIST), the margin character is directly appended
+ to the lines.
+
+ With no arguments the margin character is turned off. If this
+ occurs before a break, no margin character is printed.
+
+ For empty lines and lines produced by the `tl' request no margin
+ character is emitted.
+
+ The margin character is associated with the current environment
+ (*note Environments::).
+
+ This is quite useful for indicating text that has changed, and, in

+characters are converted to an "input token".(1) (*note Gtroff
+Internals-Footnote-1::) Then, one or more input tokens are converted
+to an "output node". Finally, output nodes are converted to the
+intermediate output language understood by all output devices.
+
+ Actually, before step one happens, `gtroff' converts certain escape
+sequences into reserved input characters (not accessible by the user);
+such reserved characters are used for other internal processing also -
+this is the very reason why not all characters are valid input. *Note
+Identifiers::, for more on this topic.
+
+ For example, the input string `fi\[:u]' is converted into a
+character token `f', a character token `i', and a special token `:u'
+(representing u umlaut). Later on, the character tokens `f' and `i'
+are merged to a single output node representing the ligature glyph `fi'
+(provided the current font has a glyph for this ligature); the same
+happens with `:u'. All output glyph nodes are `processed' which means
+that they are invariably associated with a given font, font size,
+advance width, etc. During the formatting process, `gtroff' itself
+adds various nodes to control the data flow.
+
+ Macros, diversions, and strings collect elements in two chained
+lists: a list of input tokens which have been passed unprocessed, and a
+list of output nodes. Consider the following the diversion.
+
+
+ .di xxx
+ a
+ \!b
+ c
+ .br
+ .di
+
+It contains these elements.
+
+node list token list element number
+line start node -- 1
+glyph node `a' -- 2
+word space node -- 3
+-- `b' 4
+-- `\n' 5
+glyph node `c' -- 6
+vertical size node -- 7
+vertical size node -- 8
+-- `\n' 9
+
+Elements 1, 7, and 8 are inserted by `gtroff'; the latter two (which
+are always present) specify the vertical extent of the last line,
+possibly modified by `\x'. The `br' request finishes the current
+partial line, inserting a newline input token which is subsequently
+converted to a space when the diversion is reread. Note that the word
+space node has a fixed width which isn't stretchable anymore. To
+convert horizontal space nodes back to input tokens, use the `unformat'
+request.
+
+ Macros only contain elements in the token list (and the node list is
+empty); diversions and strings can contain elements in both lists.
+
+ Note that the `chop' request simply reduces the number of elements
+in a macro, string, or diversion by one. Exceptions are "compatibility
+save" and "compatibility ignore" input tokens which are ignored. The
+`substring' request also ignores those input tokens.
+
+ Some requests like `tr' or `cflags' work on glyph identifiers only;
+this means that the associated glyph can be changed without destroying
+this association. This can be very helpful for substituting glyphs.
+In the following example, we assume that glyph `foo' isn't available by
+default, so we provide a substitution using the `fchar' request and map
+it to input character `x'.
+
+
+ .fchar \[foo] foo
+ .tr x \[foo]
+
+Now let us assume that we install an additional special font `bar'
+which has glyph `foo'.
+
+
+ .special bar
+ .rchar \[foo]
+
+Since glyphs defined with `fchar' are searched before glyphs in special
+fonts, we must call `rchar' to remove the definition of the fallback
+glyph. Anyway, the translation is still active; `x' now maps to the
+real glyph `foo'.

+
+Debugging
+=========
+
+ `gtroff' is not easy to debug, but there are some useful features
+and strategies for debugging.
+
+ - Request: .lf line filename
+ Change the line number and the file name `gtroff' shall use for
+ error and warning messages. LINE is the input line number of the
+ _next_ line.
+
+ Without argument, the request is ignored.
+
+ This is a debugging aid for documents which are split into many
+ files, then put together with `soelim' and other preprocessors.
+ Usually, it isn't invoked manually.
+
+ - Request: .tm string
+ - Request: .tm1 string
+ - Request: .tmc string
+ Send STRING to the standard error output; this is very useful for
+ printing debugging messages among other things.
+
+ STRING is read in copy mode.
+
+ The `tm' request ignores leading spaces of STRING; `tm1' handles
+ its argument similar to the `ds' request: a leading double quote
+ in STRING is stripped to allow initial blanks.
+
+ The `tmc' request is similar to `tm1' but does not append a
+ newline (as is done in `tm' and `tm1').
+
+ - Request: .ab [string]
+ Similar to the `tm' request, except that it causes `gtroff' to
+ stop processing. With no argument it prints `User Abort.' to
+ standard error.
+
+ - Request: .ex
+ The `ex' request also causes `gtroff' to stop processing; see also
+ *Note I/O::.
+
+ When doing something involved it is useful to leave the debugging
+statements in the code and have them turned on by a command line flag.
+
+
+ .if \n(DB .tm debugging output
+
+To activate these statements say
+
+
+ groff -rDB=1 file
+
+ If it is known in advance that there will be many errors and no
+useful output, `gtroff' can be forced to suppress formatted output with
+the `-z' flag.
+
+ - Request: .pm
+ Print the entire symbol table on `stderr'. Names of all defined
+ macros, strings, and diversions are print together with their size
+ in bytes. Since `gtroff' sometimes adds nodes by itself, the
+ returned size can be larger than expected.
+
+ This request differs from UNIX `troff': `gtroff' reports the sizes
+ of diversions, ignores an additional argument to print only the
+ total of the sizes, and the size isn't returned in blocks of 128
+ characters.
+
+ - Request: .pnr
+ Print the names and contents of all currently defined number
+ registers on `stderr'.
+
+ - Request: .ptr
+ Print the names and positions of all traps (not including input
+ line traps and diversion traps) on `stderr'. Empty slots in the
+ page trap list are printed as well, because they can affect the
+ priority of subsequently planted traps.
+
+ - Request: .fl
+ Instruct `gtroff' to flush its output immediately. The intent is
+ for interactive use, but this behaviour is currently not
+ implemented in `gtroff'. Contrary to UNIX `troff', TTY output is
+ sent to a device driver also (`grotty'), making it non-trivial to
+ communicate interactively.
+
+ This request causes a line break.
+
+ - Request: .backtrace
+ Print a backtrace of the input stack to the standard error stream.
+
+ Consider the following in file `test':
+
+
+ .de xxx
+ . backtrace
+ ..
+ .de yyy
+ . xxx
+ ..
+ .
+ .yyy
+
+ On execution, `gtroff' prints the following:
+
+
+ test:2: backtrace: macro `xxx'
+ test:5: backtrace: macro `yyy'
+ test:8: backtrace: file `test'
+
+ The option `-b' of `gtroff' internally calls a variant of this
+ request on each error and warning.
+
+ - Register: \n[slimit]
+ Use the `slimit' number register to set the maximum number of
+ objects on the input stack. If `slimit' is less than or equal
+ to 0, there is no limit set. With no limit, a buggy recursive
+ macro can exhaust virtual memory.
+
+ The default value is 1000; this is a compile-time constant.
+
+ - Request: .warnscale si
+ Set the scaling indicator used in warnings to SI. Valid values for
+ SI are `u', `i', `c', `p', and `P'. At startup, it is set to `i'.
+
+ - Request: .spreadwarn [limit]
+ Make `gtroff' emit a warning if the additional space inserted for
+ each space between words in an output line is larger or equal to
+ LIMIT. A negative value is changed to zero; no argument toggles
+ the warning on and off without changing LIMIT. The default scaling
+ indicator is `m'. At startup, `spreadwarn' is deactivated, and
+ LIMIT is set to 3m.
+
+ For example,
+
+
+ .spreadwarn 0.2m
+
+ will cause a warning if `gtroff' must add 0.2m or more for each
+ interword space in a line.
+
+ This request is active only if text is justified to both margins
+ (using `.ad b').
+
+ `gtroff' has command line options for printing out more warnings
+(`-w') and for printing backtraces (`-b') when a warning or an error
+occurs. The most verbose level of warnings is `-ww'.
+
+ - Request: .warn [flags]
+ - Register: \n[.warn]
+ Control the level of warnings checked for. The FLAGS are the sum
+ of the numbers associated with each warning that is to be enabled;
+ all other warnings are disabled. The number associated with each
+ warning is listed below. For example, `.warn 0' disables all
+ warnings, and `.warn 1' disables all warnings except that about
+ missing glyphs. If no argument is given, all warnings are enabled.
+
+ The read-only number register `.warn' contains the current warning
+ level.

+Warnings
+--------
+
+ The warnings that can be given to `gtroff' are divided into the
+following categories. The name associated with each warning is used by
+the `-w' and `-W' options; the number is used by the `warn' request and
+by the `.warn' register.
+
+`char'
+`1'
+ Non-existent glyphs.(1) (*note Warnings-Footnote-1::) This is
+ enabled by default.
+
+`number'
+`2'
+ Invalid numeric expressions. This is enabled by default. *Note
+ Expressions::.
+
+`break'
+`4'
+ In fill mode, lines which could not be broken so that their length
+ was less than the line length. This is enabled by default.
+
+`delim'
+`8'
+ Missing or mismatched closing delimiters.
+
+`el'
+`16'
+ Use of the `el' request with no matching `ie' request. *Note
+ if-else::.
+
+`scale'
+`32'
+ Meaningless scaling indicators.
+
+`range'
+`64'
+ Out of range arguments.
+
+`syntax'
+`128'
+ Dubious syntax in numeric expressions.
+
+`di'
+`256'
+ Use of `di' or `da' without an argument when there is no current
+ diversion.
+
+`mac'
+`512'
+ Use of undefined strings, macros and diversions. When an undefined
+ string, macro, or diversion is used, that string is automatically
+ defined as empty. So, in most cases, at most one warning is given
+ for each name.
+
+`reg'
+`1024'
+ Use of undefined number registers. When an undefined number
+ register is used, that register is automatically defined to have a
+ value of 0. So, in most cases, at most one warning is given for
+ use of a particular name.
+
+`tab'
+`2048'
+ Use of a tab character where a number was expected.
+
+`right-brace'
+`4096'
+ Use of `\}' where a number was expected.
+
+`missing'
+`8192'
+ Requests that are missing non-optional arguments.
+
+`input'
+`16384'
+ Invalid input characters.
+
+`escape'
+`32768'
+ Unrecognized escape sequences. When an unrecognized escape
+ sequence `\X' is encountered, the escape character is ignored, and
+ X is printed.
+
+`space'
+`65536'
+ Missing space between a request or macro and its argument. This
+ warning is given when an undefined name longer than two characters
+ is encountered, and the first two characters of the name make a
+ defined name. The request or macro is not invoked. When this
+ warning is given, no macro is automatically defined. This is
+ enabled by default. This warning never occurs in compatibility
+ mode.
+
+`font'
+`131072'
+ Non-existent fonts. This is enabled by default.
+
+`ig'
+`262144'
+ Invalid escapes in text ignored with the `ig' request. These are
+ conditions that are errors when they do not occur in ignored text.
+
+`color'
+`524288'
+ Color related warnings.
+
+`all'
+ All warnings except `di', `mac' and `reg'. It is intended that
+ this covers all warnings that are useful with traditional macro
+ packages.
+
+`w'
+ All warnings.
+

+
+Implementation Differences
+==========================
+
+ GNU `troff' has a number of features which cause incompatibilities
+with documents written with old versions of `troff'.
+
+ Long names cause some incompatibilities. UNIX `troff' interprets
+
+
+ .dsabcd
+
+as defining a string `ab' with contents `cd'. Normally, GNU `troff'
+interprets this as a call of a macro named `dsabcd'. Also UNIX `troff'
+interprets `\*[' or `\n[' as references to a string or number register
+called `['. In GNU `troff', however, this is normally interpreted as
+the start of a long name. In compatibility mode GNU `troff' interprets
+long names in the traditional way (which means that they are not
+recognized as names).
+
+ - Request: .cp [n]
+ - Request: .do cmd
+ - Register: \n[.C]
+ If N is missing or non-zero, turn on compatibility mode;
+ otherwise, turn it off.
+
+ The read-only number register `.C' is 1 if compatibility mode is
+ on, 0 otherwise.
+
+ Compatibility mode can be also turned on with the `-C' command line
+ option.
+
+ The `do' request turns off compatibility mode while executing its
+ arguments as a `gtroff' command.
+
+
+ .do fam T
+
+ executes the `fam' request when compatibility mode is enabled.
+
+ `gtroff' restores the previous compatibility setting before
+ interpreting any files sourced by the CMD.
+
+ Two other features are controlled by `-C'. If not in compatibility
+mode, GNU `troff' preserves the input level in delimited arguments:
+
+
+ .ds xx '
+ \w'abc\*(xxdef'
+
+In compatibility mode, the string `72def'' is returned; without `-C'
+the resulting string is `168' (assuming a TTY output device).
+
+ Finally, the escapes `\f', `\H', `\m', `\M', `\R', `\s', and `\S'
+are transparent for recognizing the beginning of a line only in
+compatibility mode (this is a rather obscure feature). For example,
+the code
+
+
+ .de xx
+ Hallo!
+ ..
+ \fB.xx\fP
+
+ prints `Hallo!' in bold face if in compatibility mode, and `.xx' in
+bold face otherwise.
+
+ GNU `troff' does not allow the use of the escape sequences `\|',
+`\^', `\&', `\{', `\}', `\<SP>', `\'', `\`', `\-', `\_', `\!', `\%',
+and `\c' in names of strings, macros, diversions, number registers,
+fonts or environments; UNIX `troff' does. The `\A' escape sequence
+(*note Identifiers::) may be helpful in avoiding use of these escape
+sequences in names.
+
+ Fractional point sizes cause one noteworthy incompatibility. In
+UNIX `troff' the `ps' request ignores scale indicators and thus
+
+
+ .ps 10u
+
+sets the point size to 10 points, whereas in GNU `troff' it sets the
+point size to 10 scaled points. *Note Fractional Type Sizes::, for
+more information.
+
+ In GNU `troff' there is a fundamental difference between
+(unformatted) input characters and (formatted) output glyphs.
+Everything that affects how a glyph is output is stored with the glyph
+node; once a glyph node has been constructed it is unaffected by any
+subsequent requests that are executed, including `bd', `cs', `tkf',
+`tr', or `fp' requests. Normally glyphs are constructed from input
+characters at the moment immediately before the glyph is added to the
+current output line. Macros, diversions and strings are all, in fact,
+the same type of object; they contain lists of input characters and
+glyph nodes in any combination. A glyph node does not behave like an
+input character for the purposes of macro processing; it does not
+inherit any of the special properties that the input character from
+which it was constructed might have had. For example,
+
+
+ .di x
+ \\\\
+ .br
+ .di
+ .x
+
+prints `\\' in GNU `troff'; each pair of input backslashes is turned
+into one output backslash and the resulting output backslashes are not
+interpreted as escape characters when they are reread. UNIX `troff'
+would interpret them as escape characters when they were reread and
+would end up printing one `\'. The correct way to obtain a printable
+backslash is to use the `\e' escape sequence: This always prints a
+single instance of the current escape character, regardless of whether
+or not it is used in a diversion; it also works in both GNU `troff' and
+UNIX `troff'.(1) (*note Implementation Differences-Footnote-1::) To
+store, for some reason, an escape sequence in a diversion that will be
+interpreted when the diversion is reread, either use the traditional
+`\!' transparent output facility, or, if this is unsuitable, the new
+`\?' escape sequence.
+
+ *Note Diversions::, and *Note Gtroff Internals::, for more
+information.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Implementation Differences-Footnotes, Up: Implementation Differences
+
+ (1) To be completely independent of the current escape character,
+use `\(rs' which represents a reverse solidus (backslash) glyph.

+`gtroff' Output
+===============
+
+ This section describes the intermediate output format of GNU
+`troff'. This output is produced by a run of `gtroff' before it is fed
+into a device postprocessor program.
+
+ As `groff' is a wrapper program around `gtroff' that automatically
+calls a postprocessor, this output does not show up normally. This is
+why it is called "intermediate". `groff' provides the option `-Z' to
+inhibit postprocessing, such that the produced intermediate output is
+sent to standard output just like calling `gtroff' manually.
+
+ Here, the term "troff output" describes what is output by `gtroff',
+while "intermediate output" refers to the language that is accepted by
+the parser that prepares this output for the postprocessors. This
+parser is smarter on whitespace and implements obsolete elements for
+compatibility, otherwise both formats are the same.(1) (*note gtroff
+Output-Footnote-1::)
+
+ The main purpose of the intermediate output concept is to facilitate
+the development of postprocessors by providing a common programming
+interface for all devices. It has a language of its own that is
+completely different from the `gtroff' language. While the `gtroff'
+language is a high-level programming language for text processing, the
+intermediate output language is a kind of low-level assembler language
+by specifying all positions on the page for writing and drawing.
+
+ The intermediate output produced by `gtroff' is fairly readable,
+while output from AT&T `troff' is rather hard to understand because of
+strange habits that are still supported, but not used any longer by
+`gtroff'.

+
+Language Concepts
+-----------------
+
+ During the run of `gtroff', the input data is cracked down to the
+information on what has to be printed at what position on the intended
+device. So the language of the intermediate output format can be quite
+small. Its only elements are commands with and without arguments. In
+this section, the term "command" always refers to the intermediate
+output language, and never to the `gtroff' language used for document
+formatting. There are commands for positioning and text writing, for
+drawing, and for device controlling.

+
+Separation
+..........
+
+ AT&T `troff' output has strange requirements on whitespace. The
+`gtroff' output parser, however, is smart about whitespace by making it
+maximally optional. The whitespace characters, i.e., the tab, space,
+and newline characters, always have a syntactical meaning. They are
+never printable because spacing within the output is always done by
+positioning commands.
+
+ Any sequence of space or tab characters is treated as a single
+"syntactical space". It separates commands and arguments, but is only
+required when there would occur a clashing between the command code and
+the arguments without the space. Most often, this happens when
+variable-length command names, arguments, argument lists, or command
+clusters meet. Commands and arguments with a known, fixed length need
+not be separated by syntactical space.
+
+ A line break is a syntactical element, too. Every command argument
+can be followed by whitespace, a comment, or a newline character. Thus
+a "syntactical line break" is defined to consist of optional
+syntactical space that is optionally followed by a comment, and a
+newline character.
+
+ The normal commands, those for positioning and text, consist of a
+single letter taking a fixed number of arguments. For historical
+reasons, the parser allows to stack such commands on the same line, but
+fortunately, in `gtroff''s intermediate output, every command with at
+least one argument is followed by a line break, thus providing
+excellent readability.
+
+ The other commands - those for drawing and device controlling - have
+a more complicated structure; some recognize long command names, and
+some take a variable number of arguments. So all `D' and `x' commands
+were designed to request a syntactical line break after their last
+argument. Only one command, `x X', has an argument that can stretch
+over several lines; all other commands must have all of their arguments
+on the same line as the command, i.e., the arguments may not be
+splitted by a line break.
+
+ Empty lines (these are lines containing only space and/or a
+comment), can occur everywhere. They are just ignored.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Argument Units, Next: Document Parts, Prev: Separation, Up: Language Concepts
+
+Argument Units
+..............
+
+ Some commands take integer arguments that are assumed to represent
+values in a measurement unit, but the letter for the corresponding
+scale indicator is not written with the output command arguments. Most
+commands assume the scale indicator `u', the basic unit of the device,
+some use `z', the scaled point unit of the device, while others, such
+as the color commands, expect plain integers.
+
+ Note that single characters can have the eighth bit set, as can the
+names of fonts and special characters. The names of characters and
+fonts can be of arbitrary length. A character that is to be printed
+will always be in the current font.
+
+ A string argument is always terminated by the next whitespace
+character (space, tab, or newline); an embedded `#' character is
+regarded as part of the argument, not as the beginning of a comment
+command. An integer argument is already terminated by the next
+non-digit character, which then is regarded as the first character of
+the next argument or command.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Document Parts, Prev: Argument Units, Up: Language Concepts
+
+Document Parts
+..............
+
+ A correct intermediate output document consists of two parts, the
+"prologue" and the "body".
+
+ The task of the prologue is to set the general device parameters
+using three exactly specified commands. `gtroff''s prologue is
+guaranteed to consist of the following three lines (in that order):
+
+
+ x T DEVICE
+ x res N H V
+ x init
+
+with the arguments set as outlined in *Note Device Control Commands::.
+Note that the parser for the intermediate output format is able to
+swallow additional whitespace and comments as well even in the prologue.
+
+ The body is the main section for processing the document data.
+Syntactically, it is a sequence of any commands different from the ones
+used in the prologue. Processing is terminated as soon as the first
+`x stop' command is encountered; the last line of any `gtroff'
+intermediate output always contains such a command.
+
+ Semantically, the body is page oriented. A new page is started by a
+`p' command. Positioning, writing, and drawing commands are always
+done within the current page, so they cannot occur before the first `p'
+command. Absolute positioning (by the `H' and `V' commands) is done
+relative to the current page; all other positioning is done relative to
+the current location within this page.

+Comment Command
+...............
+
+`#ANYTHING<end of line>'
+ A comment. Ignore any characters from the `#' character up to the

+
+ This command is the only possibility for commenting in the
+ intermediate output. Each comment can be preceded by arbitrary
+ syntactical space; every command can be terminated by a comment.
+

+
+Simple Commands
+...............
+
+ The commands in this subsection have a command code consisting of a
+single character, taking a fixed number of arguments. Most of them are
+commands for positioning and text writing. These commands are smart
+about whitespace. Optionally, syntactical space can be inserted
+before, after, and between the command letter and its arguments. All
+of these commands are stackable, i.e., they can be preceded by other
+simple commands or followed by arbitrary other commands on the same
+line. A separating syntactical space is only necessary when two
+integer arguments would clash or if the preceding argument ends with a
+string argument.
+
+`C XXX<whitespace>'
+ Print a special character named XXX. The trailing syntactical
+ space or line break is necessary to allow glyph names of arbitrary
+ length. The glyph is printed at the current print position; the
+ glyph's size is read from the font file. The print position is
+ not changed.
+
+`c G'
+ Print glyph G at the current print position;(1) (*note Simple
+ Commands-Footnote-1::) the glyph's size is read from the font
+ file. The print position is not changed.
+
+`f N'
+ Set font to font number N (a non-negative integer).
+
+`H N'
+ Move right to the absolute vertical position N (a non-negative
+ integer in basic units `u' relative to left edge of current page.
+
+`h N'
+ Move N (a non-negative integer) basic units `u' horizontally to
+ the right. The original UNIX troff manual allows negative values
+ for N also, but `gtroff' doesn't use this.
+
+`m COLOR-SCHEME [COMPONENT ...]'
+ Set the color for text (glyphs), line drawing, and the outline of
+ graphic objects using different color schemes; the analoguous
+ command for the filling color of graphic objects is `DF'. The
+ color components are specified as integer arguments between 0 and
+ 65536. The number of color components and their meaning vary for
+ the different color schemes. These commands are generated by
+ `gtroff''s escape sequence `\m'. No position changing. These
+ commands are a `gtroff' extension.
+
+ `mc CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW'
+ Set color using the CMY color scheme, having the 3 color
+ components CYAN, MAGENTA, and YELLOW.
+
+ `md'
+ Set color to the default color value (black in most cases).
+ No component arguments.
+
+ `mg GRAY'
+ Set color to the shade of gray given by the argument, an
+ integer between 0 (black) and 65536 (white).
+
+ `mk CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW BLACK'
+ Set color using the CMYK color scheme, having the 4 color
+ components CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW, and BLACK.
+
+ `mr RED GREEN BLUE'
+ Set color using the RGB color scheme, having the 3 color
+ components RED, GREEN, and BLUE.
+
+`N N'
+ Print glyph with index N (a non-negative integer) of the current
+ font. This command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`n B A'
+ Inform the device about a line break, but no positioning is done by
+ this command. In AT&T `troff', the integer arguments B and A
+ informed about the space before and after the current line to make
+ the intermediate output more human readable without performing any
+ action. In `groff', they are just ignored, but they must be
+ provided for compatibility reasons.
+
+`p N'
+ Begin a new page in the outprint. The page number is set to N.
+ This page is completely independent of pages formerly processed
+ even if those have the same page number. The vertical position on
+ the outprint is automatically set to 0. All positioning, writing,
+ and drawing is always done relative to a page, so a `p' command
+ must be issued before any of these commands.
+
+`s N'
+ Set point size to N scaled points (this is unit `z'). AT&T
+ `troff' used the unit points (`p') instead. *Note Output Language
+ Compatibility::.
+
+`t XXX<whitespace>'
+`t XXX DUMMY-ARG<whitespace>'
+ Print a word, i.e., a sequence of characters XXX representing
+ output glyphs which names are single characters, terminated by a
+ space character or a line break; an optional second integer
+ argument is ignored (this allows the formatter to generate an even
+ number of arguments). The first glyph should be printed at the
+ current position, the current horizontal position should then be
+ increased by the width of the first glyph, and so on for each
+ glyph. The widths of the glyphs are read from the font file,
+ scaled for the current point size, and rounded to a multiple of
+ the horizontal resolution. Special characters cannot be printed
+ using this command (use the `C' command for special characters).
+ This command is a `gtroff' extension; it is only used for devices
+ whose `DESC' file contains the `tcommand' keyword (*note DESC File
+ Format::).
+
+`u N XXX<whitespace>'
+ Print word with track kerning. This is the same as the `t'
+ command except that after printing each glyph, the current
+ horizontal position is increased by the sum of the width of that
+ glyph and N (an integer in basic units `u'). This command is a
+ `gtroff' extension; it is only used for devices whose `DESC' file
+ contains the `tcommand' keyword (*note DESC File Format::).
+
+`V N'
+ Move down to the absolute vertical position N (a non-negative
+ integer in basic units `u') relative to upper edge of current page.
+
+`v N'
+ Move N basic units `u' down (N is a non-negative integer). The
+ original UNIX troff manual allows negative values for N also, but
+ `gtroff' doesn't use this.
+
+`w'
+ Informs about a paddable white space to increase readability. The
+ spacing itself must be performed explicitly by a move command.

+
+Graphics Commands
+.................
+
+ Each graphics or drawing command in the intermediate output starts
+with the letter `D', followed by one or two characters that specify a
+subcommand; this is followed by a fixed or variable number of integer
+arguments that are separated by a single space character. A `D'
+command may not be followed by another command on the same line (apart
+from a comment), so each `D' command is terminated by a syntactical
+line break.
+
+ `gtroff' output follows the classical spacing rules (no space
+between command and subcommand, all arguments are preceded by a single
+space character), but the parser allows optional space between the
+command letters and makes the space before the first argument optional.
+As usual, each space can be any sequence of tab and space characters.
+
+ Some graphics commands can take a variable number of arguments. In
+this case, they are integers representing a size measured in basic
+units `u'. The arguments called H1, H2, ..., HN stand for horizontal
+distances where positive means right, negative left. The arguments
+called V1, V2, ..., VN stand for vertical distances where positive
+means down, negative up. All these distances are offsets relative to
+the current location.
+
+ Unless indicated otherwise, each graphics command directly
+corresponds to a similar `gtroff' `\D' escape sequence. *Note Drawing
+Requests::.
+
+ Unknown `D' commands are assumed to be device-specific. Its
+arguments are parsed as strings; the whole information is then sent to
+the postprocessor.
+
+ In the following command reference, the syntax element <line break>
+means a syntactical line break as defined above.
+
+`D~ H1 V1 H2 V2 ... HN VN<line break>'
+ Draw B-spline from current position to offset (H1,V1), then to
+ offset (H2,V2), if given, etc. up to (HN,VN). This command takes
+ a variable number of argument pairs; the current position is moved
+ to the terminal point of the drawn curve.
+
+`Da H1 V1 H2 V2<line break>'
+ Draw arc from current position to (H1,V1)+(H2,V2) with center at
+ (H1,V1); then move the current position to the final point of the
+ arc.
+
+`DC D<line break>'
+`DC D DUMMY-ARG<line break>'
+ Draw a solid circle using the current fill color with diameter D
+ (integer in basic units `u') with leftmost point at the current
+ position; then move the current position to the rightmost point of
+ the circle. An optional second integer argument is ignored (this
+ allows the formatter to generate an even number of arguments).
+ This command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`Dc D<line break>'
+ Draw circle line with diameter D (integer in basic units `u') with
+ leftmost point at the current position; then move the current
+ position to the rightmost point of the circle.
+
+`DE H V<line break>'
+ Draw a solid ellipse in the current fill color with a horizontal
+ diameter of H and a vertical diameter of V (both integers in basic
+ units `u') with the leftmost point at the current position; then
+ move to the rightmost point of the ellipse. This command is a
+ `gtroff' extension.
+
+`De H V<line break>'
+ Draw an outlined ellipse with a horizontal diameter of H and a
+ vertical diameter of V (both integers in basic units `u') with the
+ leftmost point at current position; then move to the rightmost
+ point of the ellipse.
+
+`DF COLOR-SCHEME [COMPONENT ...]<line break>'
+ Set fill color for solid drawing objects using different color
+ schemes; the analoguous command for setting the color of text, line
+ graphics, and the outline of graphic objects is `m'. The color
+ components are specified as integer arguments between 0 and 65536.
+ The number of color components and their meaning vary for the
+ different color schemes. These commands are generated by
+ `gtroff''s escape sequences `\D'F ...'' and `\M' (with no other
+ corresponding graphics commands). No position changing. This
+ command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+ `DFc CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW<line break>'
+ Set fill color for solid drawing objects using the CMY color
+ scheme, having the 3 color components CYAN, MAGENTA, and
+ YELLOW.
+
+ `DFd<line break>'
+ Set fill color for solid drawing objects to the default fill
+ color value (black in most cases). No component arguments.
+
+ `DFg GRAY<line break>'
+ Set fill color for solid drawing objects to the shade of gray
+ given by the argument, an integer between 0 (black) and 65536
+ (white).
+
+ `DFk CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW BLACK<line break>'
+ Set fill color for solid drawing objects using the CMYK color
+ scheme, having the 4 color components CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW,
+ and BLACK.
+
+ `DFr RED GREEN BLUE<line break>'
+ Set fill color for solid drawing objects using the RGB color
+ scheme, having the 3 color components RED, GREEN, and BLUE.
+
+`Df N<line break>'
+ The argument N must be an integer in the range -32767 to 32767.
+
+ 0 <= N <= 1000
+ Set the color for filling solid drawing objects to a shade of
+ gray, where 0 corresponds to solid white, 1000 (the default)
+ to solid black, and values in between to intermediate shades
+ of gray; this is obsoleted by command `DFg'.
+
+ N < 0 or N < 1000
+ Set the filling color to the color that is currently being
+ used for the text and the outline, see command `m'. For
+ example, the command sequence
+
+
+ mg 0 0 65536
+ Df -1
+
+ sets all colors to blue.
+
+ No position changing. This command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`Dl H V<line break>'
+ Draw line from current position to offset (H,V) (integers in basic
+ units `u'); then set current position to the end of the drawn line.
+
+`Dp H1 V1 H2 V2 ... HN VN<line break>'
+ Draw a polygon line from current position to offset (H1,V1), from
+ there to offset (H2,V2), etc. up to offset (HN,VN), and from there
+ back to the starting position. For historical reasons, the
+ position is changed by adding the sum of all arguments with odd
+ index to the actual horizontal position and the even ones to the
+ vertical position. Although this doesn't make sense it is kept
+ for compatibility. This command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`Dp H1 V1 H2 V2 ... HN VN<line break>'
+ Draw a solid polygon in the current fill color rather than an
+ outlined polygon, using the same arguments and positioning as the
+ corresponding `Dp' command. This command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`Dt N<line break>'
+ Set the current line thickness to N (an integer in basic units
+ `u') if N>0; if N=0 select the smallest available line thickness;
+ if N<0 set the line thickness proportional to the point size (this
+ is the default before the first `Dt' command was specified). For
+ historical reasons, the horizontal position is changed by adding
+ the argument to the actual horizontal position, while the vertical
+ position is not changed. Although this doesn't make sense it is
+ kept for compatibility. This command is a `gtroff' extension.

+
+Device Control Commands
+.......................
+
+ Each device control command starts with the letter `x', followed by
+a space character (optional or arbitrary space or tab in `gtroff') and
+a subcommand letter or word; each argument (if any) must be preceded by
+a syntactical space. All `x' commands are terminated by a syntactical
+line break; no device control command can be followed by another
+command on the same line (except a comment).
+
+ The subcommand is basically a single letter, but to increase
+readability, it can be written as a word, i.e., an arbitrary sequence
+of characters terminated by the next tab, space, or newline character.
+All characters of the subcommand word but the first are simply ignored.
+For example, `gtroff' outputs the initialization command `x i' as
+`x init' and the resolution command `x r' as `x res'.
+
+ In the following, the syntax element <line break> means a
+syntactical line break (*note Separation::).
+
+`xF NAME<line break>'
+ The `F' stands for FILENAME.
+
+ Use NAME as the intended name for the current file in error
+ reports. This is useful for remembering the original file name
+ when `gtroff' uses an internal piping mechanism. The input file is
+ not changed by this command. This command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`xf N S<line break>'
+ The `f' stands for FONT.
+
+ Mount font position N (a non-negative integer) with font named S
+ (a text word). *Note Font Positions::.
+
+`xH N<line break>'
+ The `H' stands for HEIGHT.
+
+ Set glyph height to N (a positive integer in scaled points `z').
+ AT&T `troff' uses the unit points (`p') instead. *Note Output
+ Language Compatibility::.
+
+`xi<line break>'
+ The `i' stands for INIT.
+
+ Initialize device. This is the third command of the prologue.
+
+`xp<line break>'
+ The `p' stands for PAUSE.
+
+ Parsed but ignored. The original UNIX troff manual writes
+
+ pause device, can be restarted
+
+`xr N H V<line break>'
+ The `r' stands for RESOLUTION.
+
+ Resolution is N, while H is the minimal horizontal motion, and V
+ the minimal vertical motion possible with this device; all
+ arguments are positive integers in basic units `u' per inch. This
+ is the second command of the prologue.
+
+`xS N<line break>'
+ The `S' stands for SLANT.
+
+ Set slant to N (an integer in basic units `u').
+
+`xs<line break>'
+ The `s' stands for STOP.
+
+ Terminates the processing of the current file; issued as the last
+ command of any intermediate troff output.
+
+`xt<line break>'
+ The `t' stands for TRAILER.
+
+ Generate trailer information, if any. In GTROFF, this is actually
+ just ignored.
+
+`xT XXX<line break>'
+ The `T' stands for TYPESETTER.
+
+ Set name of device to word XXX, a sequence of characters ended by
+ the next white space character. The possible device names coincide
+ with those from the `groff' `-T' option. This is the first
+ command of the prologue.
+
+`xu N<line break>'
+ The `u' stands for UNDERLINE.
+
+ Configure underlining of spaces. If N is 1, start underlining of
+ spaces; if N is 0, stop underlining of spaces. This is needed for
+ the `cu' request in nroff mode and is ignored otherwise. This
+ command is a `gtroff' extension.
+
+`xX ANYTHING<line break>'
+ The `x' stands for X-ESCAPE.
+
+ Send string ANYTHING uninterpreted to the device. If the line
+ following this command starts with a `+' character this line is
+ interpreted as a continuation line in the following sense. The
+ `+' is ignored, but a newline character is sent instead to the
+ device, the rest of the line is sent uninterpreted. The same
+ applies to all following lines until the first character of a line
+ is not a `+' character. This command is generated by the `gtroff'
+ escape sequence `\X'. The line-continuing feature is a `gtroff'
+ extension.

+
+Obsolete Command
+................
+
+ In AT&T `troff' output, the writing of a single glyph is mostly done
+by a very strange command that combines a horizontal move and a single
+character giving the glyph name. It doesn't have a command code, but
+is represented by a 3-character argument consisting of exactly 2 digits
+and a character.
+
+DDG
+ Move right DD (exactly two decimal digits) basic units `u', then
+ print glyph G (represented as a single character).
+
+ In `gtroff', arbitrary syntactical space around and within this
+ command is allowed to be added. Only when a preceding command on
+ the same line ends with an argument of variable length a
+ separating space is obligatory. In AT&T `troff', large clusters
+ of these and other commands are used, mostly without spaces; this
+ made such output almost unreadable.
+
+ For modern high-resolution devices, this command does not make sense
+because the width of the glyphs can become much larger than two decimal
+digits. In `gtroff', this is only used for the devices `X75',
+`X75-12', `X100', and `X100-12'. For other devices, the commands `t'
+and `u' provide a better functionality.

+
+Output Language Compatibility
+-----------------------------
+
+ The intermediate output language of AT&T `troff' was first
+documented in the UNIX troff manual, with later additions documented in
+`A Typesetter-indenpendent TROFF', written by Brian Kernighan.
+
+ The `gtroff' intermediate output format is compatible with this
+specification except for the following features.
+
+ * The classical quasi device independence is not yet implemented.
+
+ * The old hardware was very different from what we use today. So the
+ `groff' devices are also fundamentally different from the ones in
+ AT&T `troff'. For example, the AT&T PostScript device is called
+ `post' and has a resolution of only 720 units per inch, suitable
+ for printers 20 years ago, while `groff''s `ps' device has a
+ resolution of 72000 units per inch. Maybe, by implementing some
+ rescaling mechanism similar to the classical quasi device
+ independence, `groff' could emulate AT&T's `post' device.
+
+ * The B-spline command `D~' is correctly handled by the intermediate
+ output parser, but the drawing routines aren't implemented in some
+ of the postprocessor programs.
+
+ * The argument of the commands `s' and `x H' has the implicit unit
+ scaled point `z' in `gtroff', while AT&T `troff' has point (`p').
+ This isn't an incompatibility but a compatible extension, for both
+ units coincide for all devices without a `sizescale' parameter in
+ the `DESC' file, including all postprocessors from AT&T and
+ `groff''s text devices. The few `groff' devices with a
+ `sizescale' parameter either do not exist for AT&T `troff', have a
+ different name, or seem to have a different resolution. So
+ conflicts are very unlikely.
+
+ * The position changing after the commands `Dp', `DP', and `Dt' is
+ illogical, but as old versions of `gtroff' used this feature it is
+ kept for compatibility reasons.

+
+Font Files
+==========
+
+ The `gtroff' font format is roughly a superset of the `ditroff' font
+format (as used in later versions of AT&T `troff' and its descendants).
+Unlike the `ditroff' font format, there is no associated binary
+format; all files are text files.(1) (*note Font Files-Footnote-1::)
+The font files for device NAME are stored in a directory `devNAME'.
+There are two types of file: a device description file called `DESC'
+and for each font F a font file called `F'.
+
+* Menu:
+
+* DESC File Format::
+* Font File Format::
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Font Files-Footnotes, Up: Font Files
+
+ (1) Plan 9 `troff' has also abandoned the binary format.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: DESC File Format, Next: Font File Format, Prev: Font Files, Up: Font Files
+
+`DESC' File Format
+------------------
+
+ The `DESC' file can contain the following types of line. Except for
+the `charset' keyword which must comes last (if at all), the order of
+the lines is not important.
+
+`res N'
+ There are N machine units per inch.
+
+`hor N'
+ The horizontal resolution is N machine units.
+
+`vert N'
+ The vertical resolution is N machine units.
+
+`sizescale N'
+ The scale factor for point sizes. By default this has a value
+ of 1. One scaled point is equal to one point/N. The arguments to
+ the `unitwidth' and `sizes' commands are given in scaled points.
+ *Note Fractional Type Sizes::, for more information.
+
+`unitwidth N'
+ Quantities in the font files are given in machine units for fonts
+ whose point size is N scaled points.
+
+`prepro PROGRAM'
+ Call PROGRAM as a preprocessor. Currently, this keyword is used
+ by `groff' with option `-Thtml' only.
+
+`postpro PROGRAM'
+ Call PROGRAM as a postprocessor. For example, the line
+
+
+ postpro grodvi
+
+ in the file `devdvi/DESC' makes `groff' call `grodvi' if option
+ `-Tdvi' is given (and `-Z' isn't used).
+
+`tcommand'
+ This means that the postprocessor can handle the `t' and `u'
+ intermediate output commands.
+
+`sizes S1 S2 ... SN 0'
+ This means that the device has fonts at S1, S2, ... SN scaled
+ points. The list of sizes must be terminated by 0 (this is digit
+ zero). Each SI can also be a range of sizes M-N. The list can
+ extend over more than one line.
+
+`styles S1 S2 ... SM'
+ The first M font positions are associated with styles S1 ... SM.
+
+`fonts N F1 F2 F3 ... FN'
+ Fonts F1 ... FN are mounted in the font positions M+1, ..., M+N
+ where M is the number of styles. This command may extend over
+ more than one line. A font name of 0 means no font is mounted on
+ the corresponding font position.
+
+`family FAM'
+ The default font family is FAM.
+
+`use_charnames_in_special'
+ This command indicates that `gtroff' should encode special
+ characters inside special commands. Currently, this is only used
+ by the HTML output device. *Note Postprocessor Access::.
+
+`papersize STRING ...'
+ Select a paper size. Valid values for STRING are the ISO paper
+ types `A0'-`A7', `B0'-`B7', `C0'-`C7', `D0'-`D7', `DL', and the US
+ paper types `letter', `legal', `tabloid', `ledger', `statement',
+ `executive', `com10', and `monarch'. Case is not significant for
+ STRING if it holds predefined paper types. Alternatively, STRING
+ can be a file name (e.g. `/etc/papersize'); if the file can be
+ opened, `groff' reads the first line and tests for the above paper
+ sizes. Finally, STRING can be a custom paper size in the format
+ `LENGTH,WIDTH' (no spaces before and after the comma). Both
+ LENGTH and WIDTH must have a unit appended; valid values are `i'
+ for inches, `C' for centimeters, `p' for points, and `P' for
+ picas. Example: `12c,235p'. An argument which starts with a
+ digit is always treated as a custom paper format. `papersize'
+ sets both the vertical and horizontal dimension of the output
+ medium.
+
+ More than one argument can be specified; `groff' scans from left to
+ right and uses the first valid paper specification.
+
+`pass_filenames'
+ Tell `gtroff' to emit the name of the source file currently being
+ processed. This is achieved by the intermediate output command
+ `F'. Currently, this is only used by the HTML output device.
+
+`print PROGRAM'
+ Use PROGRAM as a spooler program for printing. If omitted, the
+ `-l' and `-L' options of `groff' are ignored.
+
+`charset'
+ This line and everything following in the file are ignored. It is
+ allowed for the sake of backwards compatibility.
+
+ The `res', `unitwidth', `fonts', and `sizes' lines are mandatory.
+Other commands are ignored by `gtroff' but may be used by
+postprocessors to store arbitrary information about the device in the
+`DESC' file.
+
+ Here a list of obsolete keywords which are recognized by `groff' but
+completely ignored: `spare1', `spare2', `biggestfont'.
+
+
+File: groff, Node: Font File Format, Prev: DESC File Format, Up: Font Files
+
+Font File Format
+----------------
+
+ A "font file", also (and probably better) called a "font description
+file", has two sections. The first section is a sequence of lines each
+containing a sequence of blank delimited words; the first word in the
+line is a key, and subsequent words give a value for that key.
+
+`name F'
+ The name of the font is F.
+
+`spacewidth N'
+ The normal width of a space is N.
+
+`slant N'
+ The glyphs of the font have a slant of N degrees. (Positive means
+ forward.)
+
+`ligatures LIG1 LIG2 ... LIGN [0]'
+ Glyphs LIG1, LIG2, ..., LIGN are ligatures; possible ligatures are
+ `ff', `fi', `fl', `ffi' and `ffl'. For backwards compatibility,
+ the list of ligatures may be terminated with a 0. The list of
+ ligatures may not extend over more than one line.
+
+`special'
+ The font is "special"; this means that when a glyph is requested
+ that is not present in the current font, it is searched for in any
+ special fonts that are mounted.
+
+ Other commands are ignored by `gtroff' but may be used by
+postprocessors to store arbitrary information about the font in the font
+file.
+
+ The first section can contain comments which start with the `#'
+character and extend to the end of a line.
+
+ The second section contains one or two subsections. It must contain
+a `charset' subsection and it may also contain a `kernpairs'
+subsection. These subsections can appear in any order. Each
+subsection starts with a word on a line by itself.
+
+ The word `charset' starts the character set subsection.(1) (*note
+Font File Format-Footnote-1::) The `charset' line is followed by a
+sequence of lines. Each line gives information for one glyph. A line
+comprises a number of fields separated by blanks or tabs. The format is
+
+ NAME METRICS TYPE CODE [ENTITY-NAME] [`--' COMMENT]
+
+NAME identifies the glyph name(2) (*note Font File Format-Footnote-2::):
+If NAME is a single character C then it corresponds to the `gtroff'
+input character C; if it is of the form `\C' where C is a single
+character, then it corresponds to the special character `\[C]';
+otherwise it corresponds to the special character `\[NAME]'. If it is
+exactly two characters XX it can be entered as `\(XX'. Note that
+single-letter special characters can't be accessed as `\C'; the only
+exception is `\-' which is identical to `\[-]'.
+
+ `gtroff' supports 8-bit input characters; however some utilities
+have difficulties with eight-bit characters. For this reason, there is
+a convention that the entity name `charN' is equivalent to the single
+input character whose code is N. For example, `char163' would be
+equivalent to the character with code 163 which is the pounds sterling
+sign in the ISO Latin-1 character set. You shouldn't use `charN'
+entities in font description files since they are related to input, not
+output. Otherwise, you get hard-coded connections between input and
+output encoding which prevents use of different (input) character sets.
+
+ The name `---' is special and indicates that the glyph is unnamed;
+such glyphs can only be used by means of the `\N' escape sequence in
+`gtroff'.
+
+ The TYPE field gives the glyph type:
+
+`1'
+ the glyph has a descender, for example, `p';
+
+`2'
+ the glyph has an ascender, for example, `b';
+
+`3'
+ the glyph has both an ascender and a descender, for example, `('.
+
+ The CODE field gives the code which the postprocessor uses to print
+the glyph. The glyph can also be input to `gtroff' using this code by
+means of the `\N' escape sequence. CODE can be any integer. If it
+starts with `0' it is interpreted as octal; if it starts with `0x' or
+`0X' it is interpreted as hexadecimal. Note, however, that the `\N'
+escape sequence only accepts a decimal integer.
+
+ The ENTITY-NAME field gives an ASCII string identifying the glyph
+which the postprocessor uses to print the `gtroff' glyph NAME. This
+field is optional and has been introduced so that the HTML device
+driver can encode its character set. For example, the glyph `\[Po]' is
+represented as `&pound;' in HTML 4.0.
+
+ Anything on the line after the ENTITY-NAME field resp. after `--'
+will be ignored.
+
+ The METRICS field has the form:
+
+ WIDTH[`,'HEIGHT[`,'DEPTH[`,'ITALIC-CORRECTION
+ [`,'LEFT-ITALIC-CORRECTION[`,'SUBSCRIPT-CORRECTION]]]]]
+
+There must not be any spaces between these subfields (it has been split
+here into two lines for better legibility only). Missing subfields are
+assumed to be 0. The subfields are all decimal integers. Since there
+is no associated binary format, these values are not required to fit
+into a variable of type `char' as they are in `ditroff'. The WIDTH
+subfield gives the width of the glyph. The HEIGHT subfield gives the
+height of the glyph (upwards is positive); if a glyph does not extend
+above the baseline, it should be given a zero height, rather than a
+negative height. The DEPTH subfield gives the depth of the glyph, that
+is, the distance from the baseline to the lowest point below the
+baseline to which the glyph extends (downwards is positive); if a glyph
+does not extend below the baseline, it should be given a zero depth,
+rather than a negative depth. The ITALIC-CORRECTION subfield gives the
+amount of space that should be added after the glyph when it is
+immediately to be followed by a glyph from a roman font. The
+LEFT-ITALIC-CORRECTION subfield gives the amount of space that should
+be added before the glyph when it is immediately to be preceded by a
+glyph from a roman font. The SUBSCRIPT-CORRECTION gives the amount of
+space that should be added after a glyph before adding a subscript.
+This should be less than the italic correction.
+
+ A line in the `charset' section can also have the format
+
+
+ NAME "
+
+This indicates that NAME is just another name for the glyph mentioned
+in the preceding line.
+
+ The word `kernpairs' starts the kernpairs section. This contains a
+sequence of lines of the form:
+
+
+ C1 C2 N
+
+This means that when glyph C1 appears next to glyph C2 the space
+between them should be increased by N. Most entries in the kernpairs
+section have a negative value for N.

+
+ (1) This keyword is misnamed since it starts a list of ordered
+glyphs, not characters.
+
+ (2) The distinction between input, characters, and output, glyphs,
+is not clearly separated in the terminology of `groff'; for example,
+the `char' request should be called `glyph' since it defines an output
+entity.

+
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+ 0. PREAMBLE
+
+ The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+ written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone
+ the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
+ modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily,
+ this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get
+ credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for
+ modifications made by others.
+
+ This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
+ works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
+ It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+ license designed for free software.
+
+ We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
+ free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
+ free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
+ that the software does. But this License is not limited to
+ software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
+ of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book.
+ We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
+ instruction or reference.
+
+ 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+ This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
+ notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
+ under the terms of this License. The "Document", below, refers to
+ any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee,
+ and is addressed as "you".
+
+ A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
+ Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+ modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+ A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter
+ section of the Document that deals exclusively with the
+ relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the
+ Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains
+ nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject.
+ (For example, if the Document is in part a textbook of
+ mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.)
+ The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with
+ the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial,
+ philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.
+
+ The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
+ titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in
+ the notice that says that the Document is released under this
+ License.
+
+ The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
+ listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
+ that says that the Document is released under this License.
+
+ A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+ represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+ general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly
+ and straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
+ composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some
+ widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to
+ text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of
+ formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an
+ otherwise Transparent file format whose markup has been designed
+ to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not
+ Transparent. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
+
+ Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+ ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
+ SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
+ standard-conforming simple HTML designed for human modification.
+ Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that
+ can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML
+ or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
+ available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by some word
+ processors for output purposes only.
+
+ The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+ plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
+ material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
+ works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
+ Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
+ work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+ 2. VERBATIM COPYING
+
+ You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+ commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+ copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
+ applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
+ add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
+ may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
+ or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
+ you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
+ distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow
+ the conditions in section 3.
+
+ You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
+ and you may publicly display copies.
+
+ 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+ If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than
+ 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you
+ must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly,
+ all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
+ Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
+ and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
+ front cover must present the full title with all words of the
+ title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material
+ on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the
+ covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and
+ satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in
+ other respects.
+
+ If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+ legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+ reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
+ adjacent pages.
+
+ If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
+ numbering more than 100, you must either include a
+ machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
+ state in or with each Opaque copy a publicly-accessible
+ computer-network location containing a complete Transparent copy
+ of the Document, free of added material, which the general
+ network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
+ charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the
+ latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
+ begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
+ this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+ location until at least one year after the last time you
+ distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
+ retailers) of that edition to the public.
+
+ It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
+ the Document well before redistributing any large number of
+ copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
+ version of the Document.
+
+ 4. MODIFICATIONS
+
+ You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
+ under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
+ release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
+ the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus
+ licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to
+ whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these
+ things in the Modified Version:
+
+ A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
+ distinct from that of the Document, and from those of
+ previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed
+ in the History section of the Document). You may use the
+ same title as a previous version if the original publisher of
+ that version gives permission.
+
+ B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
+ entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
+ the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
+ principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
+ authors, if it has less than five).
+
+ C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+ Modified Version, as the publisher.
+
+ D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+
+ E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+ adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+
+ F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
+ notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
+ Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
+ the Addendum below.
+
+ G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
+ Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
+ license notice.
+
+ H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+ I. Preserve the section entitled "History", and its title, and
+ add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
+ authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on
+ the Title Page. If there is no section entitled "History" in
+ the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors,
+ and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page,
+ then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in
+ the previous sentence.
+
+ J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
+ for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
+ likewise the network locations given in the Document for
+ previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in
+ the "History" section. You may omit a network location for a
+ work that was published at least four years before the
+ Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version
+ it refers to gives permission.
+
+ K. In any section entitled "Acknowledgments" or "Dedications",
+ preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all
+ the substance and tone of each of the contributor
+ acknowledgments and/or dedications given therein.
+
+ L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+ unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
+ or the equivalent are not considered part of the section
+ titles.
+
+ M. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
+ may not be included in the Modified Version.
+
+ N. Do not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements" or to
+ conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
+
+ If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+ appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
+ material copied from the Document, you may at your option
+ designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this,
+ add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
+ Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any
+ other section titles.
+
+ You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
+ nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+ parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
+ has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
+ definition of a standard.
+
+ You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
+ and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end
+ of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one
+ passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be
+ added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the
+ Document already includes a cover text for the same cover,
+ previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity
+ you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
+ replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous
+ publisher that added the old one.
+
+ The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
+ License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
+ assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+ 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+ You may combine the Document with other documents released under
+ this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
+ modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
+ all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
+ unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
+ combined work in its license notice.
+
+ The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+ multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+ copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
+ but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
+ by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
+ original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
+ unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
+ the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
+ combined work.
+
+ In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled
+ "History" in the various original documents, forming one section
+ entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections entitled
+ "Acknowledgments", and any sections entitled "Dedications". You
+ must delete all sections entitled "Endorsements."
+
+ 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+ You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
+ documents released under this License, and replace the individual
+ copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
+ that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
+ rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the
+ documents in all other respects.
+
+ You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
+ distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
+ a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
+ this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of
+ that document.
+
+ 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+ A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
+ separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of
+ a storage or distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a
+ Modified Version of the Document, provided no compilation
+ copyright is claimed for the compilation. Such a compilation is
+ called an "aggregate", and this License does not apply to the
+ other self-contained works thus compiled with the Document, on
+ account of their being thus compiled, if they are not themselves
+ derivative works of the Document.
+
+ If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+ copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one
+ quarter of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be
+ placed on covers that surround only the Document within the
+ aggregate. Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole
+ aggregate.
+
+ 8. TRANSLATION
+
+ Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+ distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
+ 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+ permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+ translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+ original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
+ translation of this License provided that you also include the
+ original English version of this License. In case of a
+ disagreement between the translation and the original English
+ version of this License, the original English version will prevail.
+
+ 9. TERMINATION
+
+ You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
+ except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other
+ attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is
+ void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
+ License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
+ from you under this License will not have their licenses
+ terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
+
+ 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
+ the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
+ versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+ differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
+ `http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/'.
+
+ Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
+ number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
+ version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
+ have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
+ that specified version or of any later version that has been
+ published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If
+ the Document does not specify a version number of this License,
+ you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the
+ Free Software Foundation.
+
+ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+ To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
+notices just after the title page:
+
+ Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
+ Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+ under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1
+ or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+ with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
+ Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
+ A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
+ Free Documentation License''.
+
+ If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections"
+instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no Front-Cover
+Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of "Front-Cover Texts being
+LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.
+
+ If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
+permit their use in free software.

-@unnumberedsec Preamble
-
-The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
-share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is
-intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software --
-to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General
-Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's
-software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it.
-(Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU
-Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your
-programs, too.
-
-When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.
-Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the
-freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
-service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
-want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
-free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
-
-To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone
-to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These
-restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
-distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
-
-For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis
-or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.
-You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code.
-And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
-
-We protect your rights with two steps: (1)@w{ }copyright the software,
-and (2)@w{ }offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
-copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
-
-Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
-that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
-software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
-want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
-that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
-authors' reputations.
-
-Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
-We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
-individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
-proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent
-must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
-
-The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
-modification follow.
-
-@iftex
-@unnumberedsec TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
-@end iftex
-@ifinfo
-@center TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
-@end ifinfo
-
-@enumerate 0
-@item
-This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
-notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under
-the terms of this General Public License. The ``Program'', below,
-refers to any such program or work, and a ``work based on the Program''
-means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
-that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either
-verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
-(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term
-``modification''.) Each licensee is addressed as ``you''.
-
-Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
-covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running
-the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is
-covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program
-(independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that
-is true depends on what the Program does.
-
-@item
-You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code
-as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
-appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
-disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
-License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other
-recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
-
-You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
-you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
-
-@item
-You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it,
-thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such
-modifications or work under the terms of Section@w{ }1 above, provided
-that you also meet all of these conditions:
-
-@enumerate a
-@item
-You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating
-that you changed the files and the date of any change.
-
-@item
-You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or
-in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to
-be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms
-of this License.
-
-@item
-If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run,
-you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the
-most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an
-appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or
-else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may
-redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user
-how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself
-is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your
-work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
-@end enumerate
-
-These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
-identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and
-can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
-themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
-sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
-distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on
-the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this
-License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
-whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
-
-Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
-your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
-exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
-collective works based on the Program.
-
-In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
-with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a
-storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the
-scope of this License.
-
-@item
-You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under
-Section@w{ }2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
-Sections@w{ }1 and@w{ }2 above provided that you also do one of the
-following:
-
-@enumerate a
-@item
-Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source
-code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections@w{ }1 and@w{
-}2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
-
-@item
-Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to
-give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically
-performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the
-corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of
-Sections@w{ }1 and@w{ }2 above on a medium customarily used for software
-interchange; or,
-
-@item
-Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
-distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only
-for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in
-object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
-Subsection@w{ }b above.)
-@end enumerate
-
-The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
-making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
-code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
-associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
-compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special
-exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is
-normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
-components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
-which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the
-executable.
-
-If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access
-to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
-the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source
-code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source
-along with the object code.
-
-@item
-You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except
-as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to
-copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
-automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
-parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License
-will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain
-in full compliance.
-
-@item
-You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed
-it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute
-the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by
-law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or
-distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you
-indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and
-conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works
-based on it.
-
-@item
-Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
-Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
-original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
-these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions
-on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not
-responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
-
-@item
-If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
-infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
-conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
-otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
-excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
-distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
-License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
-may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license
-would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those
-who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way
-you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely
-from distribution of the Program.
-
-If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
-any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
-apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
-circumstances.
-
-It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
-patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
-such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
-integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented
-by public license practices. Many people have made generous
-contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that
-system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to
-the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
-software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that
-choice.
-
-This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be
-a consequence of the rest of this License.
-
-@item
-If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
-countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
-copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an
-explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
-so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
-excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
-written in the body of this License.
-
-@item
-The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
-the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be
-similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
-address new problems or concerns.
-
-Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
-specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and ``any
-later version'', you have the option of following the terms and
-conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
-the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version
-number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the
-Free Software Foundation.
-
-@item
-If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs
-whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask
-for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software
-Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make
-exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
-preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
-of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

-@unnumberedsec How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
-
-If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
-terms.
-
-To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
-attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey
-the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
-``copyright'' line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

+The @file{ms} macro package expects a certain amount of structure,

+
+The simplest documents can begin with a paragraph macro

+and consist of text separated by paragraph macros
+or even blank lines.
+Longer documents have a structure as follows:
+
+@table @strong
+@item Document type
+If you invoke the @code{RP}
+(report) macro on the first line of the document,
+@code{groff} prints the cover page information on its own page;
+otherwise it prints the information on the
+first page with your document text immediately following.
+Other document formats found in @acronym{AT&T} @code{troff}
+are specific to @acronym{AT&T} or Berkeley, and are not supported in
+@code{groff}.
+
+@item Format and layout
+By setting number registers,
+you can change your document's type (font and size),
+margins, spacing, headers and footers, and footnotes.
+@xref{ms Document Control Registers}, for more details.

+
+@item Body
+Following the cover page is your document.
+You can use the @file{ms}
+macros to write reports, letters, books, and so forth.
+The package is designed for structured documents,
+consisting of paragraphs interspersed with headings
+and augmented by lists, footnotes, tables, and other
+common constructs.
+@xref{ms Body Text}, for more details.
+
+@item Table of contents
+Longer documents usually include a table of contents,
+which you can invoke by placing the
+@code{TC}
+macro at the end of your document.
+The @file{ms}
+macros have minimal indexing facilities, consisting of the
+@code{IX} macro, which prints an entry on standard error.
+Printing the table of contents at the end is necessary since
+@code{groff} is a single-pass text formatter,
+thus it cannot determine the page number of each section
+until that section has actually been set and printed.
+Since @file{ms} output is intended for hardcopy,
+you can manually relocate the pages containing
+the table of contents between the cover page and the
+body text after printing.

+@subsubsection Headings
+@cindex @code{ms} macros, headings
+
+Use headings to create a hierarchical structure for your document.
+The @file{ms} macros print headings in @strong{bold},

+
+@DefmacList {NH, @Var{curr-level}, ms}
+@DefmacListEnd {NH, @t{S} @Var{level0} @dots{}, ms}
+Numbered heading.
+The argument is either a numeric argument to indicate the
+level of the heading, or the letter@w{ }@code{S} followed by numeric
+arguments to set the heading level explicitly.
+
+If you specify heading levels out of sequence, such as invoking

+@subsubsection Highlighting
+@cindex @code{ms} macros, highlighting
+
+The @file{ms} macros provide a variety of methods to highlight
+or emphasize text:
+
+@Defmac {B, [@Var{txt} [@Var{post} [@Var{pre}]]], ms}
+Sets its first argument in @strong{bold type}.
+If you specify a second argument, @code{groff} prints it in the
+previous font after the bold text, with no intervening space
+(this allows you to set punctuation after the highlighted text
+without highlighting the punctuation).
+Similarly, it prints the third argument (if any) in the previous
+font @strong{before} the first argument.
+For example,
+
+@Example
+.B foo ) (
+@endExample
+
+prints (@strong{foo}).
+
+If you give this macro no arguments, @code{groff}
+prints all text following in bold until
+the next highlighting, paragraph, or heading macro.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {R, [@Var{txt} [@Var{post} [@Var{pre}]]], ms}
+Sets its first argument in roman (or regular) type.
+It operates similarly to the @code{B}@w{ }macro otherwise.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {I, [@Var{txt} [@Var{post} [@Var{pre}]]], ms}
+Sets its first argument in @emph{italic type}.
+It operates similarly to the @code{B}@w{ }macro otherwise.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {CW, [@Var{txt} [@Var{post} [@Var{pre}]]], ms}
+Sets its first argument in a @code{constant width face}.
+It operates similarly to the @code{B}@w{ }macro otherwise.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {BI, [@Var{txt} [@Var{post} [@Var{pre}]]], ms}
+Sets its first argument in bold italic type.
+It operates similarly to the @code{B}@w{ }macro otherwise.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {BX, [@Var{txt}], ms}
+Prints its argument and draws a box around it.
+If you want to box a string that contains spaces,
+use a digit-width space (@code{\0}).
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {UL, [@Var{txt} [@Var{post}]], ms}
+Prints its first argument with an underline.
+If you specify a second argument, @code{groff}
+prints it in the previous font after
+the underlined text, with no intervening space.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {LG, , ms}
+Prints all text following in larger type
+(two points larger than the current point size) until
+the next font size, highlighting, paragraph, or heading macro.
+You can specify this macro multiple times
+to enlarge the point size as needed.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {SM, , ms}
+Prints all text following in smaller type
+(two points smaller than the current point size) until
+the next type size, highlighting, paragraph, or heading macro.
+You can specify this macro multiple times
+to reduce the point size as needed.
+@endDefmac

+Prints all text following in the normal point size
+(that is, the value of the @code{PS} register).

+@subsubsection Lists
+@cindex @code{ms} macros, lists
+
+The @code{.IP} macro handles duties for all lists.
+
+@Defmac {IP, [@Var{marker} [@Var{width}]], ms}
+The @var{marker} is usually a bullet glyph (@code{\[bu]})
+for unordered lists, a number (or auto-incrementing number
+register) for numbered lists, or a word or phrase for indented
+(glossary-style) lists.
+
+The @var{width} specifies the indent for the body of each list item;
+its default unit is @samp{n}.
+Once specified, the indent remains the same for all

+@endExample
+
+In the last example, the @code{IP} macro places the definition
+on the same line as the term if it has enough space; otherwise,
+it breaks to the next line and starts the definition below the
+term.
+This may or may not be the effect you want, especially if some
+of the definitions break and some do not.
+The following examples show two possible ways to force a break.
+
+The first workaround uses the @code{br}
+request to force a break after printing the term or label.
+
+@Example
+@cartouche
+A glossary-style list:
+.IP lawyers 0.4i
+Two or more attorneys.
+.IP guns
+.br
+Firearms, preferably large-caliber.
+.IP money
+Gotta pay for those lawyers and guns!
+@end cartouche
+@endExample
+
+@sp 1
+The second workaround uses the @code{\p} escape to force the break.
+Note the space following the escape; this is important.
+If you omit the space, @code{groff} prints the first word on
+the same line as the term or label (if it fits) @strong{then}
+breaks the line.
+
+@Example

+
+Displays turn off filling, so lines of code are displayed
+as-is without inserting @code{br} requests in between each line.
+Displays can be @dfn{kept} on a single page, or allowed
+to break across pages.
+
+@DefmacList {DS, @t{L}, ms}
+@DefmacItem {LD, , ms}
+@DefmacListEnd {DE, , ms}
+Left-justified display.
+The @samp{.DS L} call generates a page break, if necessary,
+to keep the entire display on one page.
+The @code{LD} macro allows the display to break across pages.
+The @code{DE} macro ends the display.
+@endDefmac
+
+@DefmacList {DS, @t{I}, ms}
+@DefmacItem {ID, , ms}
+@DefmacListEnd {DE, , ms}
+Indents the display as defined by the @code{DI} register.

+On occasion, you may want to @dfn{keep} other text together on a page.
+For example, you may want to keep two paragraphs together, or
+a paragraph that refers to a table (or list, or other item)
+immediately following.
+The @file{ms} macros provide the @code{KS} and @code{KE}
+macros for this purpose.
+
+@DefmacList {KS, , ms}
+@DefmacListEnd {KE, , ms}
+The @code{KS} macro begins a block of text to be kept on a
+single page, and the @code{KE} macro ends the block.
+@endDefmac
+
+@DefmacList {KF, , ms}
+@DefmacListEnd {KE, , ms}
+Specifies a @dfn{floating keep};
+if the keep cannot fit on the current page, @code{groff}
+holds the contents of the keep and allows text following
+the keep (in the source file) to fill in the remainder of
+the current page.
+When the page breaks, whether by an explicit @code{bp}
+request or by reaching the end of the page, @code{groff}
+prints the floating keep at the top of the new page.
+This is useful for printing large graphics or tables
+that do not need to appear exactly where specified.
+@endDefmac
+
+You can also use the @code{ne} request to force a page break if
+there is not enough vertical space remaining on the page.

+@subsubsection Creating a table of contents
+@cindex @code{ms} macros, creating table of contents
+@cindex table of contents, creating [@code{ms}]
+
+The facilities in the @file{ms} macro package for creating
+a table of contents are semi-automated at best.
+Assuming that you want the table of contents to consist of
+the document's headings, you need to repeat those headings
+wrapped in @code{XS} and @code{XE} macros.
+
+@DefmacList {XS, [@Var{page}], ms}
+@DefmacItem {XA, [@Var{page}], ms}
+@DefmacListEnd {XE, , ms}
+These macros define a table of contents
+or an individual entry in the table of contents,
+depending on their use.
+The macros are very simple; they cannot indent a heading based on its level.
+The easiest way to work around this is to add tabs
+to the table of contents string.
+The following is an example:
+
+@Example
+@cartouche
+.NH 1
+Introduction
+.XS
+Introduction
+.XE
+.LP
+...
+.CW
+.NH 2
+Methodology
+.XS
+ Methodology
+.XE
+.LP
+...
+@end cartouche
+@endExample
+
+You can manually create a table of contents
+by beginning with the @code{XS} macro for the first entry,
+specifying the page number for that entry as the argument to @code{XS}.
+Add subsequent entries using the @code{XA} macro,
+specifying the page number for that entry as the argument to @code{XA}.
+The following is an example:
+
+@Example
+@cartouche
+.XS 1
+Introduction
+.XA 2
+A Brief History of the Universe
+.XA 729
+Details of Galactic Formation
+...
+.XE
+@end cartouche
+@endExample
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac {TC, [@code{no}], ms}
+Prints the table of contents on a new page,
+setting the page number to@w{ }@strong{i} (Roman numeral one).
+You should usually place this macro at the end of the
+file, since @code{groff} is a single-pass formatter and
+can only print what has been collected up to the point
+that the @code{TC} macro appears.
+
+The optional argument @code{no} suppresses printing
+the title specified by the string register @code{TOC}.
+@endDefmac
+
+@Defmac{PX, [@code{no}], ms}
+Prints the table of contents on a new page,
+using the current page numbering sequence.
+Use this macro to print a manually-generated table of contents
+at the beginning of your document.
+
+The optional argument @code{no} suppresses printing
+the title specified by the string register @code{TOC}.
+@endDefmac
+
+The @cite{Groff and Friends HOWTO}
+includes a @code{sed} script that automatically inserts
+@code{XS} and @code{XE} macro entries after each heading in a document.
+
+Altering the @code{NH} macro to automatically build the table
+of contents is perhaps initially more difficult, but would save
+a great deal of time in the long run if you use @file{ms} regularly.

+same.@footnote{The parser and postprocessor for intermediate output
+can be found in the file@*

+In this section, the term @dfn{command} always refers to the intermediate

+@node Separation, Argument Units, Language Concepts, Language Concepts
+@subsubsection Separation
+
+@acronym{AT&T} @code{troff} output has strange requirements on whitespace.
+The @code{gtroff} output parser, however, is smart about whitespace by
+making it maximally optional. The whitespace characters, i.e., the
+tab, space, and newline characters, always have a syntactical meaning.
+They are never printable because spacing within the output is always
+done by positioning commands.
+
+Any sequence of space or tab characters is treated as a single
+@dfn{syntactical space}. It separates commands and arguments, but is
+only required when there would occur a clashing between the command code
+and the arguments without the space. Most often, this happens when
+variable-length command names, arguments, argument lists, or command
+clusters meet. Commands and arguments with a known, fixed length need
+not be separated by syntactical space.
+
+A line break is a syntactical element, too. Every command argument can be
+followed by whitespace, a comment, or a newline character. Thus a
+@dfn{syntactical line break} is defined to consist of optional
+syntactical space that is optionally followed by a comment, and a
+newline character.
+
+The normal commands, those for positioning and text, consist of a
+single letter taking a fixed number of arguments. For historical reasons,
+the parser allows to stack such commands on the same line, but
+fortunately, in @code{gtroff}'s intermediate output, every command with
+at least one argument is followed by a line break, thus providing
+excellent readability.
+
+The other commands -- those for drawing and device controlling --
+have a more complicated structure; some recognize long command names,
+and some take a variable number of arguments. So all @samp{D} and
+@samp{x} commands were designed to request a syntactical line break
+after their last argument. Only one command, @w{@samp{x X}},
+has an argument that can stretch over several lines; all other
+commands must have all of their arguments on the same line as the
+command, i.e., the arguments may not be splitted by a line break.
+
+Empty lines (these are lines containing only space and/or a comment), can
+occur everywhere. They are just ignored.
+
+@node Argument Units, Document Parts, Separation, Language Concepts
+@subsubsection Argument Units
+
+Some commands take integer arguments that are assumed to represent
+values in a measurement unit, but the letter for the corresponding
+scale indicator is not written with the output command arguments.
+Most commands assume the scale indicator @samp{u}, the basic unit of
+the device, some use @samp{z}, the scaled point unit of the device,
+while others, such as the color commands, expect plain integers.
+
+Note that single characters can have the eighth bit set, as can the
+names of fonts and special characters. The names of characters and
+fonts can be of arbitrary length. A character that is to be printed
+will always be in the current font.
+
+A string argument is always terminated by the next whitespace
+character (space, tab, or newline); an embedded @samp{#} character is
+regarded as part of the argument, not as the beginning of a comment
+command. An integer argument is already terminated by the next
+non-digit character, which then is regarded as the first character of
+the next argument or command.
+
+@node Document Parts, , Argument Units, Language Concepts
+@subsubsection Document Parts
+
+A correct intermediate output document consists of two parts, the
+@dfn{prologue} and the @dfn{body}.
+
+The task of the prologue is to set the general device parameters
+using three exactly specified commands. @code{gtroff}'s prologue
+is guaranteed to consist of the following three lines (in that order):
+
+@Example
+x T @var{device}
+x res @var{n} @var{h} @var{v}
+x init
+@endExample
-When a character is to be printed, that character is always in the
-current font. Unlike @code{ditroff}, it is not necessary for drivers to
-search special fonts to find a character.
+@noindent
+with the arguments set as outlined in @ref{Device Control Commands}.
+Note that the parser for the intermediate output format is able to
+swallow additional whitespace and comments as well even in the
+prologue.
+
+The body is the main section for processing the document data.
+Syntactically, it is a sequence of any commands different from the
+ones used in the prologue. Processing is terminated as soon as the
+first @w{@samp{x stop}} command is encountered; the last line of any
+@code{gtroff} intermediate output always contains such a command.
+
+Semantically, the body is page oriented. A new page is started by a
+@samp{p} command. Positioning, writing, and drawing commands are
+always done within the current page, so they cannot occur before the
+first @samp{p} command. Absolute positioning (by the @samp{H} and
+@samp{V} commands) is done relative to the current page; all other
+positioning is done relative to the current location within this page.

+@subsubsection Graphics Commands
+
+Each graphics or drawing command in the intermediate output starts
+with the letter @samp{D}, followed by one or two characters that
+specify a subcommand; this is followed by a fixed or variable number
+of integer arguments that are separated by a single space character.
+A @samp{D} command may not be followed by another command on the same line
+(apart from a comment), so each @samp{D} command is terminated by a
+syntactical line break.
+
+@code{gtroff} output follows the classical spacing rules (no space
+between command and subcommand, all arguments are preceded by a
+single space character), but the parser allows optional space between
+the command letters and makes the space before the first argument
+optional. As usual, each space can be any sequence of tab and space
+characters.
+
+Some graphics commands can take a variable number of arguments.
+In this case, they are integers representing a size measured in basic
+units @samp{u}. The arguments called @var{h1}, @var{h2}, @dots{},
+@var{hn} stand for horizontal distances where positive means right,
+negative left. The arguments called @var{v1}, @var{v2}, @dots{},
+@var{vn} stand for vertical distances where positive means down,
+negative up. All these distances are offsets relative to the current
+location.
+
+Unless indicated otherwise, each graphics command directly corresponds
+to a similar @code{gtroff} @code{\D} escape sequence. @xref{Drawing
+Requests}.
+
+Unknown @samp{D} commands are assumed to be device-specific.
+Its arguments are parsed as strings; the whole information is then
+sent to the postprocessor.

+@subsubsection Device Control Commands
+
+Each device control command starts with the letter @samp{x},
+followed by a space character (optional or arbitrary space or tab in
+@code{gtroff}) and a subcommand letter or word; each argument (if any)
+must be preceded by a syntactical space. All @samp{x} commands are
+terminated by a syntactical line break; no device control command can
+be followed by another command on the same line (except a comment).
+
+The subcommand is basically a single letter, but to increase
+readability, it can be written as a word, i.e., an arbitrary sequence
+of characters terminated by the next tab, space, or newline character.
+All characters of the subcommand word but the first are simply ignored.
+For example, @code{gtroff} outputs the initialization command
+@w{@samp{x i}} as @w{@samp{x init}} and the resolution command
+@w{@samp{x r}} as @w{@samp{x res}}.

+In @acronym{AT&T} @code{troff} output, the writing of a single
+glyph is mostly done by a very strange command that combines a
+horizontal move and a single character giving the glyph name. It
+doesn't have a command code, but is represented by a 3-character
+argument consisting of exactly 2@w{ }digits and a character.

+Move right @var{dd} (exactly two decimal digits) basic units @samp{u},
+then print glyph@w{ }@var{g} (represented as a single character).
+
+In @code{gtroff}, arbitrary syntactical space around and within this
+command is allowed to be added. Only when a preceding command on the
+same line ends with an argument of variable length a separating space
+is obligatory. In @acronym{AT&T} @code{troff}, large clusters of these
+and other commands are used, mostly without spaces; this made such output
+almost unreadable.
+
+@end table
+
+For modern high-resolution devices, this command does not make sense
+because the width of the glyphs can become much larger than two
+decimal digits. In @code{gtroff}, this is only used for the devices
+@code{X75}, @code{X75-12}, @code{X100}, and @code{X100-12}. For other

+@subsection Output Language Compatibility
-There is a continuation convention which permits the argument to the
-@w{@samp{x X}} command to contain newlines: When outputting the argument
-to the @w{@samp{x X}} command, GNU @code{troff} follows each newline
-in the argument with a @samp{+} character (as usual, it terminates
-the entire argument with a newline); thus if the line after the line
-containing the @w{@samp{x X}} command starts with @samp{+}, then the
-newline ending the line containing the @w{@samp{x X}} command should be
-treated as part of the argument to the @w{@samp{x X}} command, the
-@samp{+} should be ignored, and the part of the line following the
-@samp{+} should be treated like the part of the line following the
-@w{@samp{x X}} command.
+The intermediate output language of @acronym{AT&T} @code{troff}
+was first documented in the @acronym{UNIX} troff manual, with later
+additions documented in @cite{A Typesetter-indenpendent TROFF},
+written by Brian Kernighan.
+
+The @code{gtroff} intermediate output format is compatible with this
+specification except for the following features.
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+The classical quasi device independence is not yet implemented.
+
+@item
+The old hardware was very different from what we use today. So the
+@code{groff} devices are also fundamentally different from the ones in
+@acronym{AT&T} @code{troff}. For example, the @acronym{AT&T}
+PostScript device is called @code{post} and has a resolution of only
+720 units per inch, suitable for printers 20 years ago, while
+@code{groff}'s @code{ps} device has a resolution of
+72000 units per inch. Maybe, by implementing some rescaling
+mechanism similar to the classical quasi device independence,
+@code{groff} could emulate @acronym{AT&T}'s @code{post} device.
+
+@item
+The B-spline command @samp{D~} is correctly handled by the
+intermediate output parser, but the drawing routines aren't
+implemented in some of the postprocessor programs.
+
+@item
+The argument of the commands @samp{s} and @w{@samp{x H}} has the
+implicit unit scaled point @samp{z} in @code{gtroff}, while
+@acronym{AT&T} @code{troff} has point (@samp{p}). This isn't an
+incompatibility but a compatible extension, for both units coincide
+for all devices without a @code{sizescale} parameter in the @file{DESC}
+file, including all postprocessors from @acronym{AT&T} and
+@code{groff}'s text devices. The few @code{groff} devices with
+a @code{sizescale} parameter either do not exist for @acronym{AT&T}
+@code{troff}, have a different name, or seem to have a different
+resolution. So conflicts are very unlikely.
+
+@item
+The position changing after the commands @samp{Dp}, @samp{DP}, and
+@samp{Dt} is illogical, but as old versions of @code{gtroff} used this
+feature it is kept for compatibility reasons.
+
+@ignore
+Temporarily, there existed some confusion on the positioning after the
+@samp{D} commands that are groff extensions. This has been clarified
+by establishing the classical rule for all @code{groff} drawing commands:
+
+@itemize
+@item
+The position after a graphic object has been drawn is at its end;
+for circles and ellipses, the `end' is at the right side.
+
+@item
+From this, the positionings specified for the drawing commands above
+follow quite naturally.

+This is the GNU groff document formatting system.
+The version number is given in the file VERSION.
+
+Included in this release are implementations of troff, pic, eqn, tbl, refer,
+the \-man macros and the \-ms macros, and drivers for PostScript, TeX dvi
+format, HP LaserJet 4 printers, HTML format (still alpha), and
+typewriter-like devices.
+Also included is a modified version of the Berkeley \-me macros, an enhanced
+version of the X11 xditview previewer, and an implementation of the \-mm
+macros contributed by
+.MTO jh@\:axis.se "J\[:o]rgen H\[:a]gg" .
+
+See the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
+You will require a C++ compiler.
+
+The file NEWS describes recent user-visible changes to groff.
+
+Groff is free software.
+See the file COPYING for copying permission.
+
+The file PROBLEMS describes various problems that have been encountered in
+compiling, installing, and running groff.
+
+For the moment, the documentation assumes that you are already familiar with
+the Unix versions of troff, \-man, \-ms and the preprocessors.
+
+The most recent released version of groff is always available by anonymous
+ftp from ftp.gnu.org in the directory pub/\:gnu/\:groff.

+The non-slanted PostScript font definition files have been regenerated to
+include left and right italic correction values.
+Applying those to a glyph (this is, prepending the glyph with `\e,' and
+appending `\e/' to the glyph) sets the glyph width to the real value given
+by the horizontal bounding box values.
+Without those escapes, the advance width for the particular glyph is used
+(which can differ considerably).
+
+Most users will neither need this feature nor notice a difference in
+existing documents (provided \e, and \e/ is used as advertised, namely for
+italic fonts only); its main goal is to improve image generation with
+grohtml.
+
+This is an experimental change, and feedback is welcome.

+Troff
+
+.ULS
+.LI
+Color support has been added to troff and pic (and to the device drivers
+grops, grodvi, grotty, and grohtml -- other preprocessors and drivers will
+follow).
+A new function `defcolor' defines colors; the escape sequence `\em' sets the
+drawing color, the escape sequence `\eM' specifies the background color for
+closed objects created with \eD'.\|.\|.' commands.
+`\em[]' and `\eM[]' switch back to the previous color.
+`\em' and `\eM' correspond to the new troff output command sets starting
+with `m' and `DF'.
+The device-specific default color is called `default' and can't be
+redefined.
+
+Use the `color' request to toggle the usage of colors (default is on); the
+read-only register `.color' is\~0 if colors are not active, and non-zero
+otherwise.
+
+The old `Df' output command is mapped onto `DFg'; all color output
+commands don't change the current font position (consequently, `Df'
+doesn't either).
+
+Outputting color can be disabled in troff and groff with the option\~\-c
+(it is always disabled in compatibility mode).
+See the section on grotty for the
+.ie '\*[.T]'html' \
+. URL #GROFF_NO_SGR GROFF_NO_SGR
+.el \
+. nop GROFF_NO_SGR
+environment variable also.
+
+For defining color components as fractions between 0 and\~1, a new scaling
+indicator `f' has been defined: 1f\~=\~65536u.
+For testing whether a color is defined (with .if and .ie), a new
+conditional operator `m' is available.
+
+More details can be found in the groff_diff.7 manual page and in
+groff.texinfo.
+
+.LI
+Similar to \em and \eM, \ef[] switches back to the previous font.
+\efP (and \ef[P]) is still valid for backwards compatibility.
+
+.LI
+The new escape \eF is the same as `.fam'; \eF[] switches back to previous
+family -- \eF[P] selects family `P'.
+
+.LI
+Two new glyph symbols are available: `eu' is the official Euro symbol;
+`Eu' is a font-specific glyph variant.
+
+.LI
+The new glyph symbols `t+\-', `tdi', and `tmu' are textual variants of
+`+\-', `di', and `mu', respectively.
+
+.LI
+Latin-1 character 181 (PS name `mu', Unicode name U+00B5 MICRO SIGN) has
+got the troff glyph name `mc'.
+
+.LI
+\-Tutf8 is now available on EBCDIC hosts.
+
+.LI
+Strings can take arguments, using this syntax: \e*[foo\~arg1\~arg2\~.\|.\|.].
+Example:
+.RS
+.nf
+.ft C
+\&.ds xxx This is a \e\e$1 test.
+\e*[xxx nice]
+.ft P
+.fi
+.RE
+
+.LI
+It is now possible to have whitespace between the first and second dot (or
+the name of the ending macro) to end a macro definition.
+Example:
+.RS
+.nf
+.ft C
+\&.de !
+\&..
+\&.
+\&.de foo
+\&. nop Hello, I'm `foo'.
+\&. nop I will now define `bar'.
+\&. de bar !
+\&. nop Hello, I'm `bar'.
+\&. !
+\&..
+.ft P
+.fi
+.RE
+
+.LI
+`.fn' is a new string-valued register which returns the (internal) real
+font name; styles and families are properly concatenated.
+
+.LI
+Three new read/write registers `seconds', `minutes', and `hours' contain
+the current time, set at start-up of troff.
+Use the `af' request to control their output format.
+
+.LI
+The new request `fchar' can be used to provide fallback characters.
+It has the same syntax as the `char' request; the only difference is that
+a character defined with `.char' hides the glyph with the same name in the
+current font, whereas a character defined with `.fchar' is checked only if
+the particular glyph isn't found in the current font.
+This test happens before checking special fonts.
+
+.LI
+In analogy to the `tmc' request, `.writec' is the same as `.write' but
+doesn't emit a final newline.
+
+.LI
+The new request `itc' is a variant of `.it' for which a line interrupted
+with \ec counts as one input line.
+
+.LI
+Two new requests `ds1' and `as1' which are similar to `ds' and `as' but
+with compatibility mode disabled during expansion of strings defined by
+them.
+
+.LI
+The syntax of the `substring' request has been changed:
+The first character in a string now has index\~0, the last character
+has index\~\-1.
+Note that this is an incompatible change.
+
+.LI
+To emit strings directly to the intermediate output, a new `output'
+request has been added; it is similar to `\e!' used at the top level.
+
+.LI
+`.hpf' has been extended.
+It can now handle most TeX hyphenation pattern files without
+modification.
+To do that, the commands \epatterns, \ehyphenation, and \eendinput are
+recognized.
+Please refer to groff_diff.7 for more information.
+
+.LI
+`hpfcode' is a new request to provide an input encoding mapping for the
+`hpf' request.
+
+.LI
+The new request `hpfa' appends hyphenation patterns (`hpf' replaces
+already existing patterns).
+
+.LI
+A new request `ami' (append macro indirect) has been added.
+The first and second parameter of `ami' are taken from string registers
+rather than directly; this very special request is needed to make
+`trace.tmac' independent from the escape character (which might even
+be disabled).
+
+.LI
+The new request `sizes' is similar to the `sizes' command in DESC files.
+It expects the same syntax; the data must be on a single line, and the
+final `0' can be omitted.
+
+.LI
+`trin' (translate input) is a new request which is similar to `tr' with
+the exception that the `asciify' request will use the character code (if
+any) before the character translation.
+Example:
+.RS
+.nf
+.ft C
+\&.trin ax
+\&.di xxx
+a
+\&.br
+\&.di
+\&.xxx
+\&.trin aa
+\&.asciify xxx
+\&.xxx
+.ft P
+.fi
+.RE
+
+The result is `x\~a'. Using `tr', the result would be `x\~x'.
+
+.LI
+The request `pvs' isn't new, but hasn't been documented before.
+It adds vertical space after a line has been output.
+This makes it an alternative to the `ls' request to produce
+double-spaced documents.
+The read-only register `.pvs' holds the current amount of the
+post-vertical line space.
+
+.LI
+For compatibility with plan 9's troff, multiple `pi' requests are
+supported:
+
+.RS
+.nf
+.ft C
+\&.pi foo
+\&.pi bar
+.ft P
+.fi
+.RE
+
+is now equivalent to
+.RS
+.ft C
+\&.pi foo | bar
+.ft P
+.RE
+
+.LI
+A new escape sequence `\eO' is available to disable and enable glyph
+output.
+Please see groff_diff.man and groff.texinfo for more details.
+
+.LI
+The escapes `\e%', `\e&', `\e)', and `\e:' no longer cause an error in \eX;
+they are ignored now.
+Additionally `\e\ ' and `\e~' are converted to single space characters.
+
+.LI
+The default tab distance in nroff mode is now 0.8i to be compatible
+with UNIX troff.
+
+.LI
+Using the latin-1 input character 0xAD (soft hyphen) for the `shc'
+request was a bad idea.
+Instead, it is now translated to `\e%', and the default hyphenation
+character is again \e[hy].
+Note that the glyph \e[shc] is not useful for typographic purposes;
+it only exists to have glyph names for all latin-1 characters.
+.ULE
+.
+.SH 2
+Macro Packages
+
+.ULS
+.LI
+.MTO df191@\:ncf.ca "Peter Schaffter"
+has contributed a new major macro package called `mom', mainly for
+non-scientific writers, which takes care of many typographic issues.
+It comes with a complete reference (in HTML format) and some examples.
+`mom' has been designed to format documents for PostScript output only.
+
+.LI
+Two macros `AT' (AT&T) and `UC' (Univ. of California) have been added to
+the man macros for compatibility with older BSD releases.
+
+.LI
+Both the man and mdoc macro packages now use the LL and LT registers for
+setting the line and title length, respectively (similar to those
+registers in the ms macro package).
+If not set on the command line or in a macro file loaded before the macro
+package itself, they default to 78n in nroff mode and 6.5i in troff mode.
+
+.LI
+The `\-xwidth' specifier in the mdoc macro package has been removed.
+Its functionality is now integrated directly into `\-width'.
+Similarly, `\-column' has been extended to has this functionality also.
+
+.LI
+A new macro `Ex' has been added to the mdoc macro package to document an
+exit status.
+
+.LI
+`troff.man' has been split. Differences to UNIX troff are now documented
+in the new man page `groff_diff.man'.
+
+.LI
+The PSPIC macro has been extended to work with DVI output (`pspic.tmac' is
+now automatically loaded for \-Tdvi), using a dvips special to load the EPS
+file.
+
+.LI
+The trace.tmac package now traces calls to `am' also.
+Additionally, it works in compatibility mode.
+
+.LI
+`troff.1' has been split.
+Differences to UNIX troff are now documented in the new man page
+`groff_diff.7'.
+
+.LI
+`groff_mwww.7' has been renamed to `groff_www.7'.
+The file mwww.tmac has been removed.
+
+.LI
+`groff_ms.7' has been completely rewritten.
+It now contains a complete reference to the ms macros.
+
+.LI
+`groff_trace.7' documents the trace macro package.
+
+.LI
+Changes in www.tmac
+
+Note that HTML support is still in alpha change, so it is rather likely
+that both macro names and macro syntax will change.
+Some of the macros mentioned below aren't really new but haven't been
+documented properly before.
+
+.ULS
+.LI
+The following macros have been renamed:
+.RS
+.nf
+MAILTO -> MTO
+IMAGE -> IMG
+LINE -> HR
+.fi
+.RE
+
+.LI
+For consistency, the macros `URL', `FTL', and `MTO' now all have the
+address as the first parameter followed by the description.
+
+.LI
+By default, grohtml generates links to all section headings at the top
+of the document.
+Use the new `LK' macro to specify a different place.
+
+.LI
+For specifying the background color and a background image, use the
+new macros `BCL' and `BGIMG', respectively.
+
+.LI
+The macro `NHR' has been added; it suppresses the generation of top and
+bottom rules which grohtml emits by default.
+
+.LI
+The new macro `HX' determines the cut-off point for automatic link
+generation to headings.
+
+.LI
+The image position parameter names in `IMG' have been changed to `\-L',
+`\-R', and `\-C'.
+
+.LI
+New macro `PIMG' for inclusion of a PNG image (it will automatically
+convert it into an EPS file if not \-Thtml is used).

+.LI
+Color support has been added, using the SGR (ISO\~6429, sometimes called
+ANSI color) escape sequences.
+
+.LI
+SGR escape sequences are now used by default for underlining and bold
+printing also, no longer using the backspace character trick.
+To revert to the old behaviour, use the `\-c' switch.
+
+Note that you have to use the `\-R' option of `less' to make SGR escapes
+display correctly.
+On the other hand, terminal programs and consoles like `xterm' which
+support SGR sequences natively can directly display the output of grotty.
+Consequently, the options `\-b', `\-B', `\-u', and `\-U' work only in
+combination with `\-c' and are ignored silently otherwise.
+
+For the `man' program, it may be necessary to add the `\-R' option of
+`less' to the $PAGER environment variable; alternatively, you can use
+`man's `\-P' option (or adapt its configuration file accordingly).
+See man(1) for more details.
+
+.TAG GROFF_NO_SGR
+.LI
+If the environment variable GROFF_NO_SGR is set, SGR output is disabled,
+reverting to the old behaviour.

+.LI
+A new special \eX'tty:\~sgr\~n' has been added; if n is non-zero or missing,
+enable SGR output (the default).
+
+.LI
+If the new option `\-i' is used (only in SGR mode), grotty sends escape
+sequences to set the italic font attribute instead of the underline
+attribute for italic fonts.
+Note that many terminals don't have support for this (including xterm).
