NAME
|
||||
mn - text formatting macros for the news documentation
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
nroff -mn [ options ] file ...
|
||||
troff -mn [ options ] file ...
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
This package of nroff(1) and troff(1) macro definitions provides a for-
|
||||
matting facility which may be used to run off the formatted news docu-
|
||||
ments. When reverse line motions are needed, filter the output through
|
||||
col(1).
|
||||
|
||||
All -mn macros, diversions, string registers, and number registers are
|
||||
defined below. Many nroff and troff requests are unsafe in conjunction
|
||||
with this package. However, the requests below may be used with
|
||||
impunity:
|
||||
|
||||
.bp begin new page
|
||||
.br break output line
|
||||
.sp n insert n spacing lines
|
||||
.ce n center next n lines
|
||||
.ls n line spacing: n=1 single, n=2 double space
|
||||
.na no alignment of right margin
|
||||
|
||||
Font and point size changes with \f and \s are also allowed; for exam-
|
||||
ple, ``\f2word\fR'' will italicize word. Output of the tbl(1), eqn(1),
|
||||
and refer(1) preprocessors for equations, tables, and references is
|
||||
acceptable as input.
|
||||
|
||||
FILES
|
||||
/usr/lib/tmac/tmac.n
|
||||
|
||||
SEE ALSO
|
||||
eqn(1), refer(1), tbl(1), troff(1)
|
||||
|
||||
WARNINGS
|
||||
If you do not set the string register ``.f'' to the file name, you will
|
||||
only be told the line number on which any errors occur. If you define
|
||||
this string to be the file name, you will get the file name, too. This
|
||||
is useful when dealing with a document split up into many files.
|
||||
|
||||
This package is not now intended for uses other than with the news doc-
|
||||
umentation.
|
||||
|
||||
Bug reports are always welcome; please send them to the author.
|
||||
(Include a sample of the input; this helps track down the bug.)

REQUESTS
|
||||
In the Note column, b means the request causes a break, and i means the
|
||||
macro, number register, string register, or diversion is internal and
|
||||
should not be used for anything. In the What It Is column, div means
|
||||
diversion, mac means macro, num means number register, and str means
|
||||
string register. In the Initial Value column, a hyphen means no ini-
|
||||
tial value is used, anything else is the initial value, and if two val-
|
||||
ues are given, the first is for nroff and the second for troff.
