28 @L_ROFF@_me \- troff macros for formatting papers
44 This manual page describes the @T_ROFF@ version of the \-me macros.
45 This version can be used with @T_ROFF@, GNU troff and Unix troff.
48 macro definitions provides a canned formatting

51 The macro requests are defined below.
54 requests are unsafe in conjunction with
55 this package, however, these requests may be used with
56 impunity after the first .pp:
61 \&.br break output line here
62 \&.sp n insert n spacing lines
63 \&.ls n (line spacing) n=1 single, n=2 double space
64 \&.na no alignment of right margin
65 \&.ce n center next n lines
66 \&.ul n underline next n lines
77 is acceptable as input.
