.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
This package of
|
||||
.IR nroff (1)
|
||||
and
|
||||
.IR troff (1)
|
||||
macro definitions provides a formatting facility
|
||||
which may be used to run off the formatted news documents.
|
||||
When reverse line motions are needed,
|
||||
filter the output through
|
||||
.IR col (1).
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
All \-mn macros,
|
||||
diversions,
|
||||
string registers,
|
||||
and number registers are defined below.
|
||||
Many
|
||||
.I nroff
|
||||
and
|
||||
.I troff
|
||||
requests are unsafe in conjunction with this package.
|
||||
However,
|
||||
the requests below may be used with impunity:
|
||||
.LP
|
||||
.ta 5n 12n
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
.bp begin new page
|
||||
.br break output line
|
||||
.sp \f2n\fP insert \f2n\fP spacing lines
|
||||
.ce \f2n\fP center next \f2n\fP lines
|
||||
.ls \f2n\fP line spacing: \f2n\fP=1 single, \f2n\fP=2 double space
|

.na no alignment of right margin
|

.fi
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Font and point size changes with \ef and \es are also allowed;
|
||||
for example,
|
||||
\&``\ef2word\efR'' will italicize \f2word.\fP
|
||||
Output of the
|
||||
.IR tbl (1),
|
||||
.IR eqn (1),
|
||||
and
|
||||
.IR refer (1)
|
||||

|
||||
tables,

.SH WARNINGS
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
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.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
This package is not now intended for uses
|
||||
other than with the news documentation.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Bug reports are always welcome;
|
||||
please send them to the author.
|
||||
(Include a sample of the input;
|
||||
this helps track down the bug.)
