29 @L_ROFF@_me \- troff macros for formatting papers
45 This manual page describes the @T_ROFF@ version of the \-me macros.
46 This version can be used with @T_ROFF@, GNU troff and Unix troff.
49 macro definitions provides a canned formatting
50 facility for technical papers in various formats.
52 The macro requests are defined below.
55 requests are unsafe in conjunction with this package, however, these
56 requests may be used with impunity after the first \&.pp:
60 \&.br break output line here
61 \&.sp n insert n spacing lines
62 \&.ls n (line spacing) n=1 single, n=2 double space
63 \&.na no alignment of right margin
64 \&.ce n center next n lines
65 \&.ul n underline next n lines
76 is acceptable as input.
