17: .I troff
18: or
19: .I nroff
20: which makes
21: even
22: fairly complex tables easy to specify and enter.
23: Tables are made up of columns which may be independently centered, right-adjusted,
24: left-adjusted, or aligned by decimal points.
25: Headings may be placed over single columns or groups of columns.
26: A table entry may contain equations, or may consist of several rows of text.
27: Horizontal or vertical lines may be drawn as desired
28: in the table,
29: and any table or element may be enclosed in a box.
30: For example:

78: of a table into a
79: .I troff
80: or
81: .I nroff |reference(latest troff reference)
82: program (list of commands) that prints the table.

95: .PP
96: This memorandum is divided into two parts.
97: First we give the rules for preparing
98: .I tbl
99: input; then some examples are shown.
100: The description of rules is precise but technical, and
101: the beginning user may prefer to read the examples first,
102: as they show some common table arrangements.
103: A section explaining how to invoke
104: .I tbl
105: precedes the examples.
106: To avoid repetition, henceforth read
107: .I troff
108: as
109: .I
110: ``troff

117: .PP
118: The input to
119: .I
120: tbl
121: .R
122: is text for a document, with tables preceded by a ``\f(CW.TS\fP''
123: (table start)
124: command and followed by a ``\f(CW.TE\fP''
125: (table end) command.
126: .I Tbl
127: processes the tables, generating
128: .I troff
129: formatting commands,
130: and leaves the remainder of the text unchanged.
131: The
132: .CW .TS
133: and
134: .CW .TE
135: lines are copied, too, so that
136: .I troff
137: page layout macros
138: (such as the memo formatting macros|reference(latest msmacros)) can use these lines
139: to delimit and place tables as they see fit.
140: In particular, any arguments on the
141: .CW .TS
142: or
143: .CW .TE
144: lines
145: are copied but otherwise ignored, and may be used by document layout
146: macro commands.
147: .PP
148: The format of the input is as follows:
149: .DS

170: Each table is independent, and must contain formatting
171: information
172: followed by the data to be entered in the table.
173: The formatting information, which describes the
174: individual columns and rows of the table, may be preceded
175: by a few options that affect the entire table.
176: A detailed description of tables is given in the next section.
177: .NH
178: Input commands.
179: .PP
180: As indicated above, a table contains, first, global options,
181: then a format section describing the layout of the table
182: entries, and then the data to be printed. The format and data
183: are always required, but not the options.
184: The various parts of the table are entered as follows:
185: .NH 2
186: Options
187: .PP
188: There may be a single line of options
189: affecting the whole table.
190: If present, this line must follow the
191: .CW .TS
192: line immediately
193: and must contain a list of option names
194: separated by spaces, tabs, or commas, and must be terminated by a semicolon.
195: The allowable options are:
196: .IP \f(CW~~center\fR 15
197: center the table (default is left-adjust);
198: .IP \f(CW~~expand\fR
199: make the table as wide as the current line length;
200: .IP \f(CW~~box\fR
201: enclose the table in a box;
202: .IP \f(CW~~allbox\fR
203: enclose each item in the table in a box;
204: .IP \f(CW~~doublebox\fR
205: enclose the table in two boxes;
206: .Tm tab S
207: .IP \f(CW~~tab~\fR(\fIx\fR\^)
208: use \fIx\fR instead of tab to separate data items.
209: .IP \f(CW~~linesize(\fIn\fP)\fR

227: The user who must have a multi-page boxed table
228: should use macros designed for this purpose,
229: as explained below under `Usage.'
230: .NH 2
231: Format
232: .PP
233: The format section of the table specifies the layout
234: of the columns.
235: Each line in this section corresponds to one line
236: of the table (except that the last line corresponds to all following
237: lines up to the next
238: .CW .T& ,
239: if any \(em see below),
240: and each line contains a key-letter for each column
241: of the table.
242: It is good practice to separate the key letters for each
243: column by spaces or tabs.
244: Each key-letter is one of the following:
245: .cs B 25
246: .IP "~~\f(CWL\fR~or~\f(CWl\fR" 10
247: to indicate a left-adjusted column entry;
248: .IP "~~\f(CWR\fR~or~\f(CWr\fR
249: to indicate a right-adjusted column entry;
250: .IP "~~\f(CWC\fR~or~\f(CWc\fR
251: to indicate a centered column entry;
252: .IP "~~\f(CWN\fR~or~\f(CWn\fR
253: to indicate a numerical column entry, to be aligned with other
254: numerical entries so that the units digits of numbers line up;
255: .IP "~~\f(CWA\fR~or~\f(CWa\fR
256: to indicate an alphabetic subcolumn;
257: all corresponding entries are aligned on the left, and positioned
258: so that the widest is centered within the column (see
259: example on page 12);
260: .IP "~~\f(CWS\fR~or~\f(CWs\fR
261: to indicate a spanned heading, i.e. to indicate that the
262: entry from the previous column continues across this
263: column
264: (not allowed for the first column, obviously); or
265: .IP ~~\f(CW\s+4\v'6p'^\v'-6p'\s0\fR
266: to indicate a vertically spanned heading, i.e. to indicate that
267: the entry from the previous row continues down through this row.
268: (Not allowed for the first row of the table, obviously).
269: .cs B
270: .PP
271: When numerical alignment is specified, a location for the decimal
272: point is sought. The rightmost dot
273: .CW . ) (
274: adjacent to a digit is used as a decimal point; if there is no
275: dot adjoining a digit, the rightmost digit is used as a units digit;
276: if no alignment is indicated, the item is centered in the column.
277: However, the special non-printing character string
278: .CW \e&
279: may be used
280: to override unconditionally dots
281: and digits, or to align alphabetic data;
282: this string lines up where a dot normally would,
283: and then disappears from the final output.
284: In the example below, the items shown at the left will be
285: aligned (in a numerical column) as shown on the right:
286: .KS
287: .TS
288: center;
289: l6 n.
290: 13 13
291: 4\*.2 4\&\*.2
292: 26\*.4\*.12 26\*.4\&\*.12
293: abc abc
294: abc\e& abc\&
295: 43\e&3\*.22 43\&3\*.22
296: 749\*.12 749\&\*.12
297: .TE
298: .KE
299: .PP
300: \fBNote:\fR
301: If numerical data are used in the same column with wider
302: .CW L
303: or
304: .CW r
305: type table entries, the widest \fInumber\fR is centered relative
306: to the wider
307: .CW L
308: or
309: .CW r
310: items (\f(CWL\fR is used instead of \f(CWl\fR for readability;
311: they have the same meaning as key-letters).
312: Alignment within the numerical items is preserved.
313: This is similar to the behavior of
314: .CW a
315: type data, as explained above.
316: However,
317: alphabetic subcolumns (requested by the
318: .CW a
319: key-letter)
320: are always slightly indented relative to
321: .CW L
322: items;
323: if necessary, the column width is increased to force this.
324: This is not true for \f(CWn\fR type entries.
325: .PP
326: .ft BI
327: Warning:
328: .ft 1
329: the \f(CWn\fR and \f(CWa\fR items should not be used in
330: the same column.
331: .PP
332: For readability, the key-letters describing each column should
333: be separated by spaces.
334: The end of the format section is indicated by a period.
335: The layout of the key-letters in the format section resembles
336: the layout of the actual data in the table.
337: Thus a simple format might appear as:
338: .P1
339: c s s
340: l n n .
341: .P2
342: which specifies a table of three columns. The first line
343: of the table contains a heading centered across all three
344: columns; each remaining line contains a left-adjusted item
345: in the first column followed by two columns of numerical
346: data.
347: A sample table in this format might be:
348: .br
349: .ne 6v
350: .br
351: .in +4
352: .TS
353: c s s
354: l n n.
355: Overall title

359: Total 69.87 14.92
360: .TE
361: .in -4
362: There are some additional features of the key-letter system:
363: .IP "\fI~~Horizontal lines~\fR"
364: \(em A key-letter may be replaced by
365: .CW _
366: (underscore) to indicate
367: a horizontal line in place of the corresponding column entry,
368: or by
369: .CW =
370: to indicate a double horizontal line.
371: If an adjacent column contains a horizontal line, or if
372: there are vertical lines adjoining this column,
373: this horizontal line is extended to meet the nearby lines.
374: If any data entry is provided for this column, it is ignored and
375: a warning message is printed.
376: .QQ do the D(x) and M(x) to draw a line of 'x' characters.
377: .QQ D will draw divided lines, M merged lines. thus - is simplh M(\(ru)
378: .IP "\fI~~Vertical lines~\fR"
379: \(em A vertical bar may be placed between column key-letters. This will
380: cause a vertical line between the corresponding columns of the table.
381: A vertical bar to the left of the first key-letter
382: or to the right of the last one produces a line at the
383: edge of the table.
384: If two vertical bars appear between key-letters, a double vertical
385: line is drawn.
386: .IP "\fI~~Space between columns~\fR"
387: \(em A number may follow the key-letter. This indicates the amount of separation
388: between this column and the next column.
389: The number normally specifies the separation in
390: .I ens *.
391: .FS
392: * One en is about the width of the letter `n', or more precisely,
393: half the current type size measured in points (1 point = 1/72 inch).
394: .FE
395: If the ``expand'' option is used, then these numbers are multiplied
396: by a constant such that the table is as wide as the current line length.
397: The default column separation number is 3.
398: If the separation is changed the worst case (largest space requested) governs.
399: .IP "\fI~~Vertical spanning~\fR"
400: \(em Normally, vertically spanned items extending over several
401: rows of the table are centered in their vertical range.
402: If a key-letter is followed by

415: This indicates that the corresponding column should be in a different
416: font from the default font (usually Roman).
417: All font names are one or two letters; a one-letter font
418: name should be separated from whatever follows by a space or tab.

439: an increment or decrement
440: from the current point size.
441: If both a point size and a column separation value are given,
442: one or more blanks must separate them.
443: .IP "\fI~~Vertical spacing changes~\fR"
444: \(em A key-letter may be followed by the letter

450: The number may be a signed digit, in which case it is taken as an increment
451: or decrement from the current vertical spacing.
452: A column separation value must be separated by blanks or some other
453: specification from a vertical spacing request.

677: Although any number of lines may be present in a table,

680: A multi-page table,
681: of course, may be arranged as several single-page tables

683: Other difficulties with formatting may arise because,
684: in the calculation of column widths all table entries

750: Usage.
751: .PP
752: On
753: .UX
754: systems,
755: .I tbl
756: can be run on a simple table with the command
757: .P1
758: tbl input-file | troff
759: .P2
760: but
761: for more complicated use, where there are several input files,
762: and they contain equations and
763: .CW -ms
764: layout commands as well
765: as tables, the normal command would be
766: .P1
767: tbl \fIfiles ...\fP | eqn | troff -ms
768: .P2
769: and, of course, the usual options may be used on the
770: .I troff
771: and
772: .I eqn
773: commands. If any of the file names are
774: .CW -
775: the standard input is read at that point.
776: .PP
777: For the convenience of users employing line printers without
778: adequate driving tables or post-filters, there is a special
779: .CW -TX
780: command line option to
781: .I tbl
782: which produces output that does not have fractional line
783: motions in it.
784: .PP
785: Note that when
786: .I eqn
787: and
788: .I tbl
789: are used together on the same file,
790: .I tbl
791: should be used first.
792: If there are no equations within tables,
793: either order works, but it is usually faster
794: to run
795: .I tbl
796: first, since
797: .I eqn
798: normally produces a larger expansion of the input
799: than
800: .I tbl .
801: However, if there are equations within tables
802: (using the
803: .I delim
804: mechanism in
805: .I eqn ),
806: .I tbl
807: must be first or the output will be scrambled.
808: Users must also beware of using equations in
809: \f(CWn\fR-style columns; this is nearly always wrong,
810: since
811: .I tbl
812: attempts to split numerical format items into two parts and this
813: is not possible with equations.
814: The user can defend against this by giving the
815: .I delim(xx)
816: table option;
817: this prevents splitting of numerical columns within the delimiters.
818: For example, if the
819: .I eqn
820: delimiters
821: are
822: .I $$ ,
823: giving
824: .I delim($$)
825: a numerical column such as
826: .CW "1245$+- 16$"
827: will be divided after 1245, not after 16.
828: .PP
829: .I Tbl
830: accepts up to about 35 columns, the exact number
831: depending on the availability
832: of number registers.
833: The user must avoid number register names used
834: by
835: .I tbl ,
836: which include two-digit numbers from 31 to 97,
837: and strings of the form
838: .CW 4\fIx\fR,
839: .CW 5\fIx\fR,
840: .CW #\fIx\fR,
841: \fIx\f(CW+\fR, \fIx\f(CW|\fR, \f(CW^\fIx\fR, and \fIx\f(CW-\fR,
842: where
843: \fIx\fR is any lower case letter.
844: The names
845: .CW ## ,
846: .CW #- ,
847: and
848: .CW #^
849: are also used in certain circumstances.
850: To conserve number register names, the
851: .CW n
852: and
853: .CW a
854: formats share a register;
855: hence the restriction above that they may not be used in the same column.
856: .PP
857: For aid in writing layout macros,
858: .I tbl
859: defines a number register
860: .CW TW
861: which is
862: the table width; it is defined by the time that the
863: .CW .TE
864: macro
865: is invoked and may be used in the expansion of that macro.
866: More importantly, to assist in laying out multi-page boxed tables
867: the macro T# is defined to produce the bottom lines and side lines of a boxed
868: table, and then invoked at its end. By use of this macro
869: in the page footer a multi-page table can be boxed.
870: In particular, the
871: .CW -ms
872: macros can be used to print a multi-page boxed table with a repeated heading
873: by giving the
874: argument
875: .CW H
876: to the
877: .CW .TS
878: macro.
879: If the table start macro is written
880: .P1
881: \&\*.TS H
882: .P2
883: a line of the form
884: .P1
885: \&\*.TH
886: .P2
887: must be given in the table after any table heading (or at the start if none).
888: Material up to the
889: .CW .TH
890: is placed at the top of each page of table;
891: the remaining lines in the table are placed on several pages as required.
892: Note that this is
893: .I not
894: a feature of
895: .I tbl ,
896: but of the
897: .CW -ms
898: layout macros.
