Macro Parameters
All macro parameters are positional and can be omitted, starting from the right. Each parameter is a
word, as described below.
mi Margin increment. This is the amount by which the left text margin will be increased. If it is
omitted, it defaults to \n(IN basic units (u). The default measure for mi is ens (
n). The left
text margin’s base value is
\n(IN.
in Paragraph indent. This is the amount by which indented lines of a paragraph will be indented.
If it is omitted, it defaults to the value that was established by the most recent paragraph macro:
explicitly or default by .HP, .IP,or.TP; implicitly by .P, .PP
, .RE,or.RS. The default
measure for in is ens (
n).
text Consists of zero to six words. If text is empty, the special treatment is applied to the next line
containing text to be printed. For example, .I can be used to italicize a whole line, or
.SM fol-
lowed by
.B to make small bold text.
word A string of characters separated by spaces (not tabs). Use quotation marks ("[word]
")toinclude
spaces in a word (
"string string
") or to specify a null word (""). (The nonbreaking, nonpadd-
able space (
\ ) is not a separating space.)
Header Macros
.TH t1 s2 c3 n4 a5
Set the title and entry heading. t1, s2, c3, n4, and a5 are words.
t1 Entry title.
s2 Section number. t1 is combined with s2 in parentheses to form the top left- and righthand
corners of the page heading.
c3 Extra commentary, such as "Optional Software Required". It is placed at the center of the
bottom line in the two- or three-line page heading space.
n4 Other notations, such as "Series 300/400 Only". It is centered between the title and section
on the first page heading line.
a5 Support for alternate naming, such as a FORTRAN routine name corresponding to a C
function name specified in t1.
