1.1       root        1: #print
                      2: After the global command has selected the lines
                      3: to which the second command is to be applied, it sets '.' (the
                      4: current line) to each of these lines in turn as it executes
                      5: the controlled command.  Thus you can reference the line
                      6: before or after the selected line.  For example,
                      7:   g/xx/.-1s/ab/cd/
                      8: changes 'ab' to 'cd' on the line BEFORE each line with xx.
                      9: And
                     10:   g/xx/$t.+1
                     11: inserts a copy of the last line in the file two lines
                     12: after each line with 'xx' on it.
                     13: In this directory, the file 'memo' has paragraphs indicated
                     14: by lines beginning ".PP".  Add two blanks to the beginning of
                     15: the line after each ".PP", and then delete the ".PP" lines.
                     16: This should take only two commands.  Rewrite the file and then
                     17: type "ready".

                     19: The Ascent of the Riffelberg
                     20: by Mark Twain
                     21: 
                     22:   I sat silent some time, then turned to Harris and said:
                     23: ``My mind is made up.''
                     24: Something in my tone struck him; and when he glanced
                     25: at my eye and read what was written there, his face paled
                     26: perceptibly.  He hesitated a moment, then said:
                     27: ``Speak.''
                     28:   I answered, with perfect calmness:
                     29: ``I WILL ASCEND THE RIFFELBERG.''
                     30:   If I had shot my poor friend he could not have fallen from
                     31: his chair more suddenly.  If I had been his father he
                     32: could not have pleaded harder to get me to give up my
                     33: purpose.  But I turned a deaf ear to all he said.  When he
                     34: perceived at last that nothing could alter my determination,
                     35: he ceased to urge, and for a while the deep silence was broken only
                     36: by his sobs.  I sat in marble resolution, with my
                     37: eyes fixed upon vacancy, for in spirit I was already
                     38: wrestling with the perils of the mountains, and my friend sat
                     39: gazing at me in adoring admiration through his tears.  At
                     40: last he threw himself upon me in a loving embrace and
                     41: exclaimed in broken tones:
                     42: ``Your Harris will never desert you.  We will die together!''
                     43:   I cheered the noble fellow with praises, and soon his fears
                     44: were forgotten and he was eager for the adventure.  He
                     45: wanted to summon the guides at once and leave at two in
                     46: the morning, as he supposed the custom was; but I explained that nobody
                     47: was looking at that hour; and that the start in the dark
                     48: was not usually made from the village but
                     49: from the first night's resting-place on the mountainside.  I
                     50: said we would leave the village at 3 or 4 p.m. on the morrow;
                     51: meantime he could notify the guides, and also let the public
                     52: know of the attempt which we proposed to make.
                     53:   I went to bed, but not to sleep.  No man can sleep when
                     54: he is about to undertake one of these Alpine exploits.  I
                     55: tossed feverishly all night long, and was glad enough when
                     56: I heard the clock strike half past eleven and knew it was
                     57: time to get up for dinner.
