I would like to have TROFF vertically offset the output on a page by about one inch DOWNWARD. Does anyone know how this can be accomplished without using a ready-made macro package (just bare TROFF)? . ------- |-----| A. G.

If you can't use the -me macros, check out their code in /usr/lib/tmac/tmac.e. Vertical motion is designated by \v'N' You should be able to make a local macro copying the .m1 and/or .m2 definitions. If necessary, you should be able to combine them into one macro, and also make a specific, rather than a parameter offset distance. -- ************************************************************** Suzanne Barnett-Scott uucp: ...{decvax,ihnp4,noao,savax,seismo}!terak!suze phone: (602) 998-4800 us mail: CalComp/Sanders Display Products Division (Formerly Terak Corporation) 14151 N 76th street, Scottsdale, AZ 85260
