[comp.text] To break or not to break

alastair@axis.fr (Alastair Adamson) (12/07/87)

I have long wondered at the ubiquitous [nt]roff request
	'br
found in the mm macros and elsewhere. Could someone
please elucidate the use of the break request with
the no-break command character ' used?

Thanks in advance, Alastair Adamson,
