<p>Set a blank line trap, calling the macro <var class="var">name</var> when GNU
<code class="code">troff</code> encounters a blank line in an input file, instead of the
usual behavior (see <a class="pxref" href="Breaking.html">Breaking</a>). A line consisting only of spaces is
also treated as blank and subject to this trap. If no argument is
supplied, the default blank line behavior is (re-)established.
