42: Tables are made up of columns which may be independently centered, right-adjusted,
43: left-adjusted, or aligned by decimal points.
44: Headings may be placed over single columns or groups of columns.
45: A table entry may contain equations, or may consist of several rows of text.
46: Horizontal or vertical lines may be drawn as desired
47: in the table,
48: and any table or element may be enclosed in a box.

142: This memorandum is divided into two parts.
143: First we give the rules for preparing
144: .I
145: tbl
146: .R
147: input; then some examples are shown.
148: The description of rules is precise but technical, and
149: the beginning user may prefer to read the examples first,
150: as they show some common table arrangements.
151: A section explaining how to invoke
152: .I
153: tbl
154: .R
155: precedes the examples.
156: To avoid repetition, henceforth read
157: .I
158: troff

161: .I
162: ``troff

167: .R
168: .ds . \^\s14.\s0
169: .PP
170: The input to
171: .I
172: tbl
173: .R
174: is text for a document, with tables preceded by a ``\*.TS''
175: (table start)
176: command and followed by a ``\*.TE''
177: (table end) command.
178: .I
179: Tbl
180: .R
181: processes the tables, generating
182: .I
183: troff
184: .R
185: formatting commands,
186: and leaves the remainder of the text unchanged.
187: The ``\*.TS'' and ``\*.TE''
188: lines are copied, too, so that
189: .I
190: troff
191: .R
192: page layout macros
193: (such as the memo formatting macros [4]\|) can use these lines
194: to delimit and place tables as they see fit.
195: In particular, any arguments on the ``\*.TS'' or ``\*.TE''
196: lines
197: are copied but otherwise ignored, and may be used by document layout
198: macro commands.
199: .PP
200: The format of the input is as follows:
201: .DS
202: \&text
203: \&\*.TS

217: \fIformat \*.
218: data
219: \&\fR\*.TE
220: .DE
221: Each table is independent, and must contain formatting
222: information
223: followed by the data to be entered in the table.
224: The formatting information, which describes the
225: individual columns and rows of the table, may be preceded
226: by a few options that affect the entire table.
227: A detailed description of tables is given in the next section.
228: .sp .5
229: .SH
230: Input commands.
231: .PP
232: As indicated above, a table contains, first, global options,
233: then a format section describing the layout of the table
234: entries, and then the data to be printed. The format and data
235: are always required, but not the options.
236: The various parts of the table are entered as follows:
237: .sp .5v
238: .IP 1)
239: O\s-2PTIONS.\s0
240: There may be a single line of options
241: affecting the whole table.
242: If present, this line must follow the \*.TS line immediately
243: and must contain a list of option names
244: separated by spaces, tabs, or commas, and must be terminated by a semicolon.
245: The allowable options are:
246: .RS
247: .IP \fB##center\fR 13
248: \(em center the table (default is left-adjust);
249: .IP \fB##expand\fR

266: .IP
267: The
268: .I
269: tbl
270: .R
271: program
272: tries to keep boxed tables on one page by issuing
273: appropriate ``need'' (\fI\*.ne\fR\|) commands.
274: These requests are calculated from the number of lines in the tables,
275: and if there are spacing commands embedded in the input, these requests may be inaccurate;
276: use normal
277: .I
278: troff
279: .R
280: procedures, such as keep-release macros, in that case.
281: The user who must have a multi-page boxed table
282: should use macros designed for this purpose,
283: as explained below under `Usage.'
284: .sp .5v
285: .IP 2) 5
286: F\s-2ORMAT\s0.
287: The format section of the table specifies the layout
288: of the columns.
289: Each line in this section corresponds to one line
290: of the table (except that the last line corresponds to all following
291: lines up to the next \*.T&, if any \(em see below),
292: and each line contains a key-letter for each column
293: of the table.
294: It is good practice to separate the key letters for each
295: column by spaces or tabs.
296: Each key-letter is one of the following:
297: .RS
298: .cs B 25
299: .IP "\ \ \fBL\fR\ or\ \fBl\fR" 10
300: to indicate a left-adjusted column entry;
301: .IP "\ \ \fBR\fR\ or\ \fBr\fR
302: to indicate a right-adjusted column entry;
303: .IP "\ \ \fBC\fR\ or\ \fBc\fR
304: to indicate a centered column entry;
305: .IP "\ \ \fBN\fR\ or\ \fBn\fR
306: to indicate a numerical column entry, to be aligned with other
307: numerical entries so that the units digits of numbers line up;
308: .IP "\ \ \fBA\fR\ or\ \fBa\fR
309: to indicate an alphabetic subcolumn;
310: all corresponding entries are aligned on the left, and positioned
311: so that the widest is centered within the column (see
312: example on page 12);
313: .IP "\ \ \fBS\fR\ ori\ \fBs\fR
314: to indicate a spanned heading, i.e. to indicate that the
315: entry from the previous column continues across this
316: column
317: (not allowed for the first column, obviously); or
318: .IP \ \ \fB\s+4\v'6p'^\v'-6p'\s0\fR
319: to indicate a vertically spanned heading, i.e. to indicate that
320: the entry from the previous row continues down through this row.
321: (Not allowed for the first row of the table, obviously).
322: .cs B
323: .RE
324: .LP
325: .ns
326: .IP
327: When numerical alignment is specified, a location for the decimal
328: point is sought. The rightmost dot (\*.)
329: adjacent to a digit is used as a decimal point; if there is no
330: dot adjoining a digit, the rightmost digit is used as a units digit;
331: if no alignment is indicated, the item is centered in the column.
332: However, the special non-printing character string \e& may be used
333: to override unconditionally dots
334: and digits, or to align alphabetic data;
335: this string lines up where a dot normally would,
336: and then disappears from the final output.
337: In the example below, the items shown at the left will be
338: aligned (in a numerical column) as shown on the right:
339: .KS
340: .TS
341: center;
342: l6 n.
343: 13 13
344: 4\*.2 4\&\*.2
345: 26\*.4\*.12 26\*.4\&\*.12
346: abc abc
347: abc\e& abc\&

353: \fBNote:\fR
354: If numerical data are used in the same column with wider
355: .B L
356: or
357: .B r
358: type table entries, the widest \fInumber\fR is centered relative
359: to the wider
360: .B L
361: or
362: .B r
363: items (\fBL\fR is used instead of \fBl\fR for readability;
364: they have the same meaning as key-letters).
365: Alignment within the numerical items is preserved.
366: This is similar to the behavior of
367: .B a
368: type data, as explained above.
369: However,
370: alphabetic subcolumns (requested by the
371: .B
372: a
373: .R
374: key-letter)
375: are always slightly indented relative to
376: .B
377: L
378: .R
379: items;
380: if necessary, the column width is increased to force this.
381: This is not true for \fBn\fR type entries.
382: .IP
383: .bd I 3
384: .ft I
385: Warning:
386: .ft 1
387: .bd I
388: the \fBn\fR and \fBa\fR items should not be used in
389: the same column.
390: .IP
391: For readability, the key-letters describing each column should
392: be separated by spaces.
393: The end of the format section is indicated by a period.
394: The layout of the key-letters in the format section resembles
395: the layout of the actual data in the table.
396: Thus a simple format might appear as:
397: .br
398: .ne 3
399: .in +2
400: .nf
401: c s s
402: l n n \*.
403: .fi
404: .in -2
405: which specifies a table of three columns. The first line
406: of the table contains a heading centered across all three
407: columns; each remaining line contains a left-adjusted item
408: in the first column followed by two columns of numerical
409: data.
410: A sample table in this format might be:
411: .br
412: .ne 6v
413: .br
414: .in +4
415: .TS
416: c s s

422: Total 69.87 14.92
423: .TE
424: .in -4
425: There are some additional features of the key-letter system:
426: .RS
427: .IP "\fI##Horizontal lines#\fR"
428: \(em A key-letter may be replaced by `\(ul'
429: (underscore) to indicate
430: a horizontal line in place of the corresponding column entry,
431: or by `=' to indicate a double horizontal line.
432: If an adjacent column contains a horizontal line, or if
433: there are vertical lines adjoining this column,
434: this horizontal line is extended to meet the nearby lines.
435: If any data entry is provided for this column, it is ignored and
436: a warning message is printed.
437: .QQ do the D(x) and M(x) to draw a line of 'x' characters.
438: .QQ D will draw divided lines, M merged lines. thus - is simplh M(\(ru)
439: .IP "\fI##Vertical lines#\fR"
440: \(em A vertical bar may be placed between column key-letters. This will
441: cause a vertical line between the corresponding columns of the table.
442: A vertical bar to the left of the first key-letter
443: or to the right of the last one produces a line at the
444: edge of the table.
445: If two vertical bars appear between key-letters, a double vertical
446: line is drawn.
447: .IP "\fI##Space between columns#\fR"
448: \(em A number may follow the key-letter. This indicates the amount of separation

461: .FE
462: If the ``expand'' option is used, then these numbers are multiplied
463: by a constant such that the table is as wide as the current line length.
464: The default column separation number is 3.
465: If the separation is changed the worst case (largest space requested) governs.
466: .IP "\fI##Vertical spanning#\fR"
467: \(em Normally, vertically spanned items extending over several

588: Very long input lines can be broken: any line whose last character is

590: The data for different columns (the table entries) are separated by tabs,
591: or by whatever character has been specified in the option

603: and is passed through unchanged, retaining its position in the table.
604: So, for example, space within a table may be produced by ``\*.sp''

607: .IP "\fI##Full width horizontal lines\fR#"
608: \(em An input

616: .IP "\fI##Single column horizontal lines\fR#"
617: \(em An input table

623: Such lines are extended to meet horizontal or vertical

628: .IP "\fI##Short horizontal lines\fR#"
629: \(em An input table

689: .I
690: L
691: .R

702: The other parameters (point size, font, etc.) used in setting the

705: .R
706: are those in effect at the beginning of the table (including
707: the effect of the ``\*.TS'' macro)
708: and any table format specifications of size, spacing and font,
709: using the \fBp\fR, \fBv\fR and \fBf\fR modifiers to the column key-letters.
710: Commands within the text block itself are also recognized, of course.
711: However,

893: Users must also beware of using equations in

895: since
896: .I
897: tbl
898: .R
899: attempts to split numerical format items into two parts and this
900: is not possible with equations.
901: The user can defend against this by giving the
902: .I delim(xx)

904: this prevents splitting of numerical columns within the delimiters.
905: For example, if the

926: \fITroff\fR number registers used by

934: where
935: \fIx\fR is any lower case letter.
936: The names

938: To conserve number register names, the

945: For aid in writing layout macros,
946: .I
947: tbl
948: .R

950: the table width; it is defined by the time that the ``\*.TE'' macro
951: is invoked and may be used in the expansion of that macro.
952: More importantly, to assist in laying out multi-page boxed tables
953: the macro T# is defined to produce the bottom lines and side lines of a boxed
954: table, and then invoked at its end. By use of this macro
955: in the page footer a multi-page table can be boxed.
956: In particular, the
957: .I
958: ms
959: .R
960: macros can be used to print a multi-page boxed table with a repeated heading
961: by giving the
962: argument H to the ``\*.TS'' macro.
963: If the table start macro is written
964: .br
965: \&\*.TS H
966: .br
967: a line of the form
968: .br
969: \&\*.TH
970: .br
971: must be given in the table after any table heading (or at the start if none).
972: Material up to the ``\*.TH'' is placed at the top of each page of table;
973: the remaining lines in the table are placed on several pages as required.
