31: .SH DESCRIPTION
32: This package of
33: .I nroff
34: and
35: .I troff
36: macro definitions provides a canned formatting
37: facility for tech%nical papers in various formats.
38: When producing 2-column output on a terminal, filter
39: the output through
40: .IR col (1).
41: .PP
42: The macro requests are defined below.
43: Many
44: .I nroff
45: and
46: .I troff
47: requests are unsafe in conjunction with
48: this package, however, these requests may be used with
49: impunity after the first .pp:
50: .nf
51: .IP
52: .ta \w'.sz +n 'u
53: \&.bp begin new page
54: \&.br break output line here
55: \&.sp n insert n spacing lines
56: \&.ls n (line spacing) n=1 single, n=2 double space
57: \&.na no alignment of right margin
58: \&.ce n center next n lines
59: \&.ul n underline next n lines
60: \&.sz +n add n to point size
61: .fi
