SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
This package of nroff and troff macro definitions provides a canned
formatting facility for technical papers in various formats. When pro‐
ducing 2-column output on a terminal, filter the output through col(1).
The macro requests are defined below. Many nroff and troff requests
are unsafe in conjunction with this package, however these requests may
be used with impunity after the first .PP:
Output of the eqn, neqn, refer, and tbl(1) preprocessors for equations
and tables is acceptable as input.
