When producing 2-column output on a terminal or lineprinter, or when reverse line motions are needed, filter the output through \fBcol\fR(1). All external \fB-mm\fR macros are defined below. .sp .LP Note: this \fB-mm\fR macro package is an extended version written at Berkeley and is a superset of the standard \fB-mm\fR macro packages as supplied by Bell Labs. Some of the Bell Labs macros have been removed; for instance, it is assumed that the user has little interest in producing headers stating that the memo was generated at Whippany Labs. .sp .LP Many \fBnroff\fR and \fBtroff\fR requests are unsafe in conjunction with this package. However, the first four requests below may be used with impunity after initialization, and the last two may be used even before initialization: .sp .ne 2 .mk .na \fB\fB\&.bp\fR\fR .ad .RS 11n .rt begin new page .RE .sp .ne 2 .mk .na \fB\fB\&.br\fR \fR .ad .RS 11n .rt break output line .RE .sp .ne 2 .mk .na \fB\fB\&.sp\fR\fIn\fR \fR .ad .RS 11n .rt insert n spacing lines .RE .sp .ne 2 .mk .na \fB\fB\&.ce\fR\fIn\fR \fR .ad .RS 11n .rt center next n lines .RE .sp .ne 2 .mk .na \fB\fB\&.ls\fR\fIn\fR \fR .ad .RS 11n .rt line spacing: \fIn\fR\fB=1\fR single, \fIn\fR\fB=2\fR double space .RE .sp .ne 2 .mk .na \fB\fB\&.na\fR \fR .ad .RS 11n .rt no alignment of right margin .RE .sp .LP Font and point size changes with \fB\ef\fR and \fB\es\fR are also allowed; for example, \fB\efIword\efR\fR will italicize \fIword\fR. Output of the \fBtbl\fR(1), \fBeqn\fR(1) and \fBrefer\fR(1) preprocessors for equations, tables, and references is acceptable as input. .SH REQUESTS .sp .LP Here is a table of macros. .sp .sp .TS tab(); cw(1.47i) |cw(1.1i) |cw(.74i) |cw(2.19i) lw(1.47i) |lw(1.1i) |lw(.74i) |lw(2.19i) .
