NAME
- -
- - man – macros to typeset manual
- -
-

SYNOPSIS
- -
- - nroff −man file ... -
- - troff −man file ...
- -
-

DESCRIPTION
- -
- - These macros are used to format pages of this manual. -
- - Except in .LR and .RL requests, any text argument denoted t in - the request summary may be zero to six words. Quotes " ... " may - be used to include blanks in a ‘word’. If t is empty, the special - treatment is applied to the next text input line (the next line - that doesn’t begin with dot). In this way, for example, .I -may be used to italicize a line of more than 6 words, or .SM followed - by .B to make small letters in ‘bold’ font. -
- - A prevailing indent distance is remembered between successive - indented paragraphs, and is reset to default value upon reaching - a non-indented paragraph. Default units for indents i are ens. - -
- - The fonts are
- R     roman, the main font, preferred for diagnostics
- I     italic, preferred for parameters, short names of commands, names - of manual pages, and naked function names
- B     ‘bold’, actually the constant width font, preferred for examples, - file names, declarations, keywords, names of struct members, and - literals (numbers are rarely literals)
- L     also the constant width font. In troff L=B; in nroff arguments - of the macros .L, .LR, and .RL are printed in quotes; preferred - only where quotes really help (e.g. lower-case literals and punctuation). - -
- - Type font and size are reset to default values before each paragraph, - and after processing font- or size-setting macros. -
- - The −man macros admit equations and tables in the style of eqn(1) - and tbl(1), but do not support arguments on .EQ and .TS macros. - -
- - These strings are predefined by −man:
- \*R   ‘®’, ‘(Reg)’ in nroff.
- \*S   Change to default type size. \*9 The root directory of the - Plan 9 installation.

-

BUGS
- -
- - There’s no way to fool troff into handling literal double quote - marks " in font-alternation macros, such as .BI. -
- - There is no direct way to suppress column widows in 2-column output; - the column lengths may be adjusted by inserting .sp requests before - the closing .1C.
