.SH DESCRIPTION
.\" ====================================================================
.
The groff mm macros are intended to be compatible with the DWB mm macros
with the following limitations:
.
.TP
.B \(bu
No Bell Labs localisms are implemented.
.
.TP
.B \(bu
The macros OK and PM are not implemented.
.
.TP
.B \(bu
groff mm does not support cut marks.
.
.
.LP
.B mm
is intended to support easy localization.
.
Use
.B mmse
as an example how to adapt the output format to a national standard.
.
Localized strings are collected in the file
.IR /usr/\:share/\:groff/\:1.22.4/\:tmac/ xx .tmac ,
where
.I xx
denotes the two-letter code for the
.IR language ,
as defined in the ISO 639 standard.
.
For Swedish, this is \[oq]sv.tmac\[cq] \[en] not \[oq]se\[cq], which
is the ISO 3166 two-letter code for the
.I country
(as used for the output format localization).
.
.
.\"########################################################################
.LP
A file called
.I locale
or
.RI country _locale
is read after the initialization of the global variables.
.
It is therefore possible to localize the macros with a different company
name and so on.
.
.
.LP
In this manual, square brackets are used to show optional arguments.
.
.
.\" ====================================================================
.SS "Number registers and strings"
.\" ====================================================================
.
Many macros can be controlled by number registers and strings.
.
A number register is assigned with the
.B nr
command:
.
.RS
.LP
.BI .nr\  "XXX \fR[\fP\fB\[+-]\fP\fR]\fPn \fR[\fPi\fR]\fP\""
.RE
.
.
.LP
.I XXX
is the name of the register,
.IR n \~is
the value to be assigned, and
.IR i \~is
the increment value for auto-increment.
.
.IR n \~can
have a plus or minus sign as a prefix if an increment
or decrement of the current value is wanted.
.
(Auto-increment or auto-decrement occurs if the number register is
used with a plus or minus sign,
.BI \[rs]n+[ XXX ]
or
.BI \[rs]n\-[ XXX ]\fR.)\fP
.
.
.LP
Strings are defined with
.BR ds .
.
.RS
.LP
\fB\&.ds\fP \fIYYY string\fP
.RE
.
.
.LP
The string is assigned everything to the end of the line,
even blanks.
.
Initial blanks in
.I string
should be prefixed with a double-quote.
.
(Strings are used in the text as
.BI \[rs]*[ YYY ]\fR.)\fP
.
.
.\" ====================================================================
.SS "Special formatting of number registers"
.\" ====================================================================
.
A number register is printed with normal digits if no format has been
given.
.
Set the format with
.BR af :
.
.RS
.LP
.BI .af\  "R c"
.RE
.
.
.LP
.IR R \~is
the name of the register,
.IR c \~is
the format.

.SS Fonts
.\" ====================================================================
.
In
.BR mm ,
the fonts (or rather, font styles)
.BR R \~(normal),
.BR I \~(italic),
and
.BR B \~(bold)
are hardwired to font positions
.BR 1 ,
.BR 2 ,
and\~\c
.BR 3 ,
respectively.
.
Internally, font positions are used for backwards compatibility.
.
From a practical point of view it doesn't make a big difference
\[en] a different font family can still be selected with a call to the
.B .fam
request or using
.BR groff 's
.B \-f
command-line option.
.
On the other hand, if you want to replace just, say, font
.BR B ,
you have to replace the font at position\~2 (with a call to
\[oq].fp\~2\~.\|.\|.\[cq]).

.BI P\  \fR[\fPtype\fR]\fP
Begin new paragraph.
.
.BR P \~without
argument produces left\-justified text,
even the first line of the paragraph.
.
This is the same as setting
.I type
to\~0.
.
If the argument is\~1,
the first line of text following\~\c
.B P
is indented by the number of spaces in number register
.BR Pi ,
by default\~5.
.
.IP
Instead of giving an argument to\~\c
.B P
it is possible to set the paragraph type in number register
.BR Pt .
.
Using 0 and\~1 is the same as adding that value to
.BR P .
.
A value of\~2 indents all paragraphs, except after headings, lists,
and displays (this value can't be used as an argument to
.B P
itself).
.
.IP
The space between two paragraphs is controlled by number register
.BR Ps ,
and is\~1 by default (one blank line).

.TP
.BI PGFORM\  "\fR[\fPlinelength \fR[\fPpagelength \fR[\fPpageoffset\ " \fR[\fP1\fR]]]]\fP
Set line length, page length, and/or page offset.
.
This macro can be used for special formatting,
like letter heads and other.
.
It is normally the first command in a file,
though it is not necessary.
.
.B PGFORM
can be used without arguments to reset everything after a
.B MOVE
call.
.
A line break is done unless the fourth argument is given.
.
This can be used to avoid the page number on the first page
while setting new width and length.
.
(It seems as if this macro sometimes doesn't work too well.
.
Use the command-line arguments to change
line length, page length, and page offset instead.)
.
.TP
.B PGNH
No header is printed on the next page.

Used to get rid of the header in letters or other special texts.

This macro must be used before any text to inhibit the page header
on the first page.

.BR \-L ,
.BR \-C ,
.BR \-R ,
and
.BI \-I\  n

Begin an automatically numbered reference definition.

It generates a table of contents with headings up to the level
controlled by number register
.BR Cl .

get

Headings with a level less than or equal to
.I tlevel
have their page numbers right\-justified with dots or spaces separating
the text and the page number.

.
The letter macros are using different submacros depending on the
letter type.
.
The name of the submacro has the letter type as suffix.
.
It is therefore possible to define other letter types, either in the
national macro-file, or as local additions.
.
.B .LT
sets the number variables
.B Pt
and
.B Pi
to 0 and\~5, respectively.
.
The following strings and macros must be defined for a new letter type.
.
.TP
.BI let@init_ type
This macro is called directly by
.BR .LT .
.
It is supposed to initialize variables and other stuff.
.
.TP
.BI let@head_ type
This macro prints the letter head,
and is called instead of the normal page header.
.
It is supposed to remove the alias
.BR let@header ,
otherwise it is called for all pages.
.
.TP
.BI let@sg_ "type name title n flag \fR[\fParg1 \fR[\fParg2 \fR[.\|.\|.]]]\fP"
.B .SG
is calling this macro only for letters;
memorandums have its own processing.
.
.I name
and
.I title
are specified through
.BR .WA / .WB .
.
.IR n \~is
the counter, 1-max, and
.I flag
is true for the last name.
.
Any other argument to
.B .SG
is appended.
.
.TP
.BI let@fc_ "type closing"
This macro is called by
.BR .FC ,
and has the formal closing as the argument.
.
.
.LP
.B .LO
is implemented as a general option-macro.
.
It demands that a string named
.BI Let type
is defined, where
.I type
is the letter type.
.
.B .LO
then assigns the argument to the string variable
.BI let*lo- type\fR.\fP
