NAME
groff_me - troff macros for formatting papers
SYNOPSIS
groff -me [ options ] file ...
groff -m me [ options ] file ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the GNU version of the -me macros, which is
part of the groff document formatting system. This version can be used
with both GNU troff and Unix troff. This package of troff macro defi-
nitions provides a canned formatting facility for technical papers in
various formats.
The macro requests are defined below. Many troff requests are unsafe
in conjunction with this package, however, these requests may be used
with impunity after the first .pp:
.bp begin new page
.br break output line here
.sp n insert n spacing lines
.ls n (line spacing) n=1 single, n=2 double space
.na no alignment of right margin
.ce n center next n lines
.ul n underline next n lines
Output of the pic, eqn, refer, and tbl preprocessors is acceptable as
input.
