<p><font size=+1><b>DESCRIPTION     </b></font><br>

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    <i>Proof</i> reads <a href="../man1/troff.html"><i>troff</i>(1)</a> intermediate language from <i>file</i> or standard
    input and simulates the resulting pages on the screen. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    After a page of text is displayed, <i>proof</i> pauses for a command
    from the keyboard. The typed commands are:<br>
    newlineGo on to next page of text.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Go back to the previous page.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>q</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Quit.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>p</font></tt><i>n</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Print page <i>n</i>. An out-of-bounds page number means the end nearer
    to that number; a missing number means the current page; a signed
    number means an offset to the current page.<br>
    <i>n</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Same as <tt><font size=+1>p</font></tt><i>n</i>.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>c</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Clear the screen, then wait for another command.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>m</font></tt><i>mag</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Change the magnification at which the output is printed. Normally
    it is printed with magnification .9; <i>mag</i>=.5 shrinks it to half
    size; <i>mag</i>=2 doubles the size.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>x</font></tt><i>val</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Move everything <i>val</i> screen pixels to the right (left, if <i>val</i>
    is negative).<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>y</font></tt><i>val</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Move everything <i>val</i> screen pixels down (up, if <i>val</i> is negative).<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>/</font></tt><i>nview</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Split the window into <i>nview</i> pieces. The current page goes
    into the rightmost, bottommost piece, and previous pages are shown
    in the other pieces.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;F</font></tt> <i>dir</i>Use <i>dir</i> for fonts instead of <tt><font size=+1>/lib/font/bit</font></tt>.<br>
    <tt><font size=+1>d</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Toggle the debug flag. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    These commands are also available, under slightly different form,
    from a menu on button 3. The <tt><font size=+1>pan</font></tt> menu item allows arbitrary positioning
    of the page: after selecting <tt><font size=+1>pan</font></tt>, press the mouse button again
    and hold it down while moving the page to the desired location.
    The page will be redisplayed in its entirety when
    the button is released. Mouse button 1 also pans, without the
    need for selecting from a menu. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    The <tt><font size=+1>m</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>x</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>y</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>F</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>/</font></tt>, and <tt><font size=+1>d</font></tt> commands are also available as command
    line options.<br>
