This document describes
|
|
in extremely terse form
|
|
the features
|
|
of the
|
|
.b \-me
|
|
macro package
|
|
for \*G.
|
|
Some familiarity is assumed
|
|
with
|
|
\*G.
|
|
Specifically,
|
|
the reader should understand
|
|
breaks,
|
|
fonts,
|
|
pointsizes,
|
|
the use and definition of number registers
|
|
and strings,
|
|
how to define macros,
|
|
and scaling factors for ens, points,
|
|
.b v 's
|
|
(vertical line spaces),
|
|
etc.
|
|
.pp
|
|
For a more casual introduction
|
|
to text processing
|
|
using \*G,
|
|
refer to the document
|
|
.ul
|
|
Writing Papers with \*G using \-me.
|
|
.pp
|
|
There are a number of macro parameters
|
|
that may be adjusted.
|
|
Fonts may be set to a font number only.
|
|
Font 0 is no font change;
|
|
the font of the surrounding text
|
|
is used instead.
|
|
Notice that font 0 is a
|
|
.q pseudo-font ;
|
|
that is,
|
|
it is simulated by the macros.
|
|
This means that although it is legal to set a font register
|
|
to zero,
|
|
it is not legal to use the escape character form,
|
|
such as:
|
|
.(b
|
|
\ef0
|
|
.)b
|
|
.pp
|
|
All distances
|
|
are in basic units,
|
|
so it is nearly always necessary
|
|
to use a scaling factor.
|
|
For example,
|
|
the request
|
|
to set the paragraph indent
|
|
to eight one-en spaces is:
|
|
.(b
|
|
\&.nr pi 8n
|
|
.)b
|
|
and not
|
|
.(b
|
|
\&.nr pi 8
|
|
.)b
|
|
which would set the paragraph indent to eight basic units,
|
|
or about 0.02 inch.
|
|
Default parameter values are given in brackets
|
|
in the remainder of this document.
|
|
.pp
|
|
Registers and strings
|
|
of the form
|
|
.b $ \c
|
|
.i x
|
|
may be used in expressions
|
|
but should not be changed.
|
|
Macros of the form
|
|
.b $ \c
|
|
.i x
|
|
perform some function
|
|
(as described)
|
|
and may be redefined
|
|
to change this function.
|
|
This may be a sensitive operation;
|
|
look at the body of the original macro
|
|
before changing it.
|
|
.pp
|
|
All names in \-me
|
|
follow a rigid naming convention.
|
|
The user may define number registers,
|
|
strings,
|
|
and macros,
|
|
provided that s/he
|
|
uses single character upper case names
|
|
or double character names
|
|
consisting of letters and digits,
|
|
with at least one upper case letter.
|
|
In no case should special characters
|
|
be used in user-defined names.
|
|
Locally defined macros
|
|
should all be of the form
|
|
.b .* \c
|
|
.i X ,
|
|
where
|
|
.i X
|
|
is any letter
|
|
(upper or lower case)
|
|
or digit.

This documentation was \*G'ed

of the \-me macros.
|
|
.sh 1 "Paragraphing"
|
|
.pp
|
|
These macros are used
|
|
to begin paragraphs.
|
|
The standard paragraph macro
|
|
is
|
|
.b .pp ;
|
|
the others are all variants
|
|
to be used for special purposes.
|
|
.pp
|
|
After the first call to one of the paragraphing macros
|
|
defined in this section
|
|
or the
|
|
.b .sh
|
|
macro
|
|
(defined in the next session),
|
|
the effects of changing parameters
|
|
which will have a global effect
|
|
on the format of the page
|
|
(notably page length and header and footer margins)
|
|
are not well defined
|
|
and should be avoided.
|
|
.TL
|
|
.b .lp
|
|
.DE
|
|
Begin left-justified paragraph.
|
|
Centering and underlining
|
|
are turned off if they were on,
|
|
the font is set to
|
|
.NR (pf
|
|
[1]
|
|
the type size
|
|
is set to
|
|
.NR (pp
|
|
[10p],
|
|
and a
|
|
.NR (ps
|
|
space is inserted
|
|
before the paragraph
|
|
[0.35v]
|
|
The indent is reset
|
|
to
|
|
.NR ($i
|
|
[0]
|
|
plus
|
|
.NR (po
|
|
[0]
|
|
unless the paragraph
|
|
is inside a display.
|
|
(see
|
|
.b .ba ).
|
|
At least
|
|
the first two lines
|
|
of the paragraph
|
|
are kept together
|
|
on a page.
|
|
.TL
|
|
.b .pp
|
|
.DE
|
|
Like
|
|
.b .lp ,
|
|
except that it puts
|
|
.NR (pi
|

[5n]
|

units of indent.
|

This is the standard paragraph macro.

.TL

.b .ip
|
|
.i T

.i I
|
|
.DE
|
|
Indented paragraph
|
|
with hanging tag.
|
|
The body of the following paragraph
|
|
is indented
|
|
.i I
|
|
spaces
|
|
(or
|
|
.NR (ii
|
|
[5n]
|
|
spaces
|
|
if
|
|
.i I
|
|
is not specified)
|
|
more than a non-indented paragraph
|
|
(such as with
|
|
.b .pp )
|
|
is.
|
|
The title
|
|
.i T
|
|
is exdented (opposite of indented).
|
|
The result is a paragraph
|
|
with an even left edge
|
|
and
|
|
.i T
|
|
printed in the margin.
|
|
Any spaces in
|
|
.i T
|
|
must be unpaddable.
|
|
If
|
|
.i T
|
|
will not fit in the space provided,
|
|
.b .ip
|
|
will start a new line.
|
|
.TL
|
|
.b .np
|
|
.DE
|
|
A variant of .ip which numbers paragraphs.
|
|
Numbering is reset
|
|
after a
|
|
.b .lp ,
|
|
.b .pp ,
|
|
or
|
|
.b .sh .
|
|
The current paragraph number
|
|
is in
|
|
.NR ($p .
|
|
.TL
|
|
.b .bu
|
|
.DE
|
|
Like
|
|
.b .np
|
|
except that paragraphs are marked with bullets (\(bu).
|
|
Leading space is eliminated to create compact lists.
|
|
.sh 1 "Section Headings"
|
|
.pp
|
|
Numbered sections
|
|
are similar to paragraphs
|
|
except that a
|
|
section number
|
|
is automatically
|
|
generated for each one.
|
|
The section numbers are of the form
|
|
.b 1.2.3 .
|
|
The
|
|
.i depth
|
|
of the section
|
|
is the count of numbers
|
|
(separated by decimal points)
|
|
in the section number.
|
|
.pp
|
|
Unnumbered section headings are similar,
|
|
except that no number is attached
|
|
to the heading.
|
|
.TL
|
|
.b .sh
|
|
.i +N
|
|
.i T
|
|
.i "a b c d e f"
|
|
.DE
|
|
Begin numbered section
|
|
of depth
|
|
.i N .
|
|
If
|
|
.i N
|
|
is missing
|
|
the current depth
|
|
(maintained in
|
|
the number register
|
|
.NR ($0 )
|
|
is used.
|
|
The values of
|
|
the individual parts of the section number
|
|
are maintained in
|
|
.NR ($1
|
|
through
|
|
.NR ($6 .
|
|
There is a
|
|
.NR (ss
|
|
[1v]
|
|
space before the section.
|
|
.i T
|
|
is printed
|
|
as a section title
|
|
in font
|
|
.NR (sf
|
|
[8]
|
|
and size
|
|
.NR (sp
|
|
[10p].
|
|
The
|
|
.q name
|
|
of the section may be accessed via
|
|
.ST ($n .
|
|
If
|
|
.NR (si
|
|
is non-zero,
|
|
the base indent
|
|
is set to
|
|
.NR (si
|
|
times the section depth,
|
|
and the section title
|
|
is exdented.
|
|
(See
|
|
.b .ba .)
|
|
Also,
|
|
an additional indent of
|
|
.NR (so
|
|
[0]
|
|
is added to the section title
|
|
(but not to the body of the section).
|
|
The font is then set
|
|
to the paragraph font,
|
|
so that more information may occur
|
|
on the line
|
|
with the section number
|
|
and title.
|
|
.b .sh
|
|
insures that there is enough room
|
|
to print the section head
|
|
plus the beginning of a paragraph
|
|
(about 3 lines total).
|
|
If
|
|
.i a
|
|
through
|
|
.i f
|
|
are specified,
|
|
the section number is set to that number
|
|
rather than incremented automatically.
|
|
If any of
|
|
.i a
|
|
through
|
|
.i f
|
|
are a hyphen
|
|
that number is not reset.
|
|
If
|
|
.i T
|
|
is a single underscore
|
|
(\c
|
|
.q _ )
|
|
then the section depth and numbering is reset,
|
|
but the base indent is not reset
|
|
and nothing is printed out.
|
|
This is useful to automatically
|
|
coordinate section numbers with
|
|
chapter numbers.
|
|
.TL
|
|
.b .sx

.DE
|

Go to section depth
|
|
.i N
|
|
[\c
|
|
.b \-1 ],
|
|
but do not print the number
|
|
and title,
|
|
and do not increment the section number
|
|
at level
|
|
.i N .
|
|
This has the effect
|
|
of starting a new paragraph
|
|
at level
|
|
.i N .
|
|
.TL
|

Unnumbered section heading.
|

The title
|

is printed

with the same rules for spacing,
|

font, etc.,
|
|
as for
|

.i T

.b .sh

|
.b .uh
|
|
line;
|
|
.i B
|
|
is the section number for this section,
|
|
and
|
|
.i N
|
|
is the depth of this section.
|
|
These parameters are not always present;
|
|
in particular,
|
|
.b .sh
|
|
passes all three,
|
|
.b .uh
|
|
passes only the first,
|
|
and
|
|
.b .sx
|
|
passes three,
|
|
but the first two
|
|
are null strings.
|
|
Care should be taken if this macro
|
|
is redefined;
|
|
it is quite complex and subtle.

It is normally undefined,

to automatically put

|
every section title

into the table of contents

or for some similar function.

These macros are called from

you may lose this feature.
