1.1     ! root        1: #print
        !             2: It is usually wise to do your formatting with
        !             3: the "-ms" macro package developed by Mike Lesk, since
        !             4: it does a lot of dirty work for you without any effort
        !             5: on your part.
        !             6: One of the things "-ms" does is to arrange that equations
        !             7: are "displayed" - that is, that they are neatly centered
        !             8: and set off from the surrounding text.
        !             9: Most of the "-ms" package is described in another script
        !            10: called "macros", which you may have already learned.
        !            11: For now, we need only know this much: to use "-ms"
        !            12: with neqn, add "-ms" to your command line, right after
        !            13: the word "nroff", like this
        !            14: 
        !            15:   neqn files... | nroff -ms -Txxx
        !            16: 
        !            17: Notice where the "-ms" goes.
        !            18: 
        !            19: In this directory is a file called "Example".
        !            20: To prove that you can type the "-ms" in the right place,
        !            21: print "Example" with "-ms", then type "ready".
        !            22: #once #create Example
        !            23: .PP
        !            24: This is a tiny little text
        !            25: that includes one equation
        !            26: or at least it will when you find this line:
        !            27: .EQ
        !            28: x sub i = y sub i
        !            29: .EN
        !            30: and convert it into an equation.
        !            31: (Naturally I changed it.)
        !            32: .pl 1
        !            33: #copyin
        !            34: #user
        !            35: #uncopyin
        !            36: grep 'neqn Example *| *nroff -ms' <.copy >/dev/null
        !            37: #log
        !            38: #next
        !            39: 1.1d 10
