.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.if t .tm OOPS -- CAWF THINKS IT'S TROFF!!!
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
formats the text from the input \fIfile\fR(s)
|
||||
(standard input if none)
|
||||
in an approximation of \*(Nr.
|
||||
It comes closest to duplicating \*(Nr's
|
||||
.B man
|
||||
or
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macro package styles.
|
||||
It has some limited support for \*(Nr's
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
macros.
|
||||
.SH OPTIONS
|
||||
Options must precede file names.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BI \-c config
|
||||
defines an alternate path to the device configuration file.
|
||||
Normally the device configuration file is found in
|
||||
.I device.cf
|
||||
in the
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
library (see the
|
||||
.B FILES
|
||||
section).
|
||||
.IP
|
||||
The device configuration file contains device character strings for
|
||||
selecting fonts and the bold or italic type faces.
|
||||
See the
|
||||
.B DEVICES
|
||||
section for more information.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
specifies the name of the output device.
|
||||
There are three built\-in devices \- ANSI, NONE and NORMAL \- and
|
||||
other devices may be defined in the device configuration file.
|
||||
See the
|
||||
.B DEVICES
|
||||
section for more information.
|
||||
.IP
|
||||
The NORMAL device is the default.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B \-e
|
||||
directs
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
to issue an eject (FF or ^L) after the last page.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
specifies the one font for the device, declared with the
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
option, that is to be used for the
|
||||
entire document.
|
||||
.I Font
|
||||
must match a font associated with the device's stanza in the device
|
||||
configuration file.
|
||||
See the
|
||||
.B DEVICES
|
||||
section for more information.
|
||||
.IP
|
||||
No
|
||||
.I font
|
||||
may be specified for the built\-in devices ANSI, NONE or NORMAL.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B \-h
|
||||
requests a help display.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BI \-m acro
|
||||
specifies the macro file to be used.
|
||||
The standard
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
distribution supplies macro files to support ``\-man'', ``\-me'' or ``\-ms''.
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
finds a macro file by constructing its name from `m',
|
||||
.I acro
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B .mac
|
||||
\- e. g.,
|
||||
.BI \-m an
|
||||
is converted to
|
||||
.BR man.mac .
|
||||
The default directory for macro files is defined when
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
is compiled; it's \fIC:\\SYS\\LIB\\CAWF\fP in the MS\-DOS environment;
|
||||
.I /usr/lib/cawf
|
||||
in the UNIX environment.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
file ...
|
||||
are the names of files containing \*(Nr source text.
|
||||
.SH NROFF COMPATIBILITY
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
accepts the following raw \*(Nr requests:
|
||||
.LP
|
||||
.\e" .ad .bp .br .ce .de .di .ds
|
||||
.el .fi .fl .ft .i0 .ie .if .in

||||
.nr .ns .pl .po .ps .rm .rn .rr
|
||||
.rs .so .sp .ta .ti .tm .tr
|

.LP
|
||||
and the following in-text codes:
|
||||
.ES
|
||||
\e$ \e% \e* \e" \ec \ef \eh \ek
|
||||
\en \es \ew
|
||||
.EE
|
||||
plus the full list of \*(Nr/\c
|
||||
.I troff
|
||||
special characters in
|
||||
the original V7 \fItroff\fR manual.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Many restrictions are present; the behavior in general is a subset of
|
||||
\*(Nr's. Of particular note are the following:
|
||||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||||
The fully supported nroff request control character is the period.
|
||||
There is limited support for the non\-break, acute accent control
|
||||
character.
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
Point sizes do not exist;
|
||||
.B .ps
|
||||
is ignored.
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
Special vertical spacing \- the
|
||||
.B .vs
|
||||
request included \- is ignored.
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
Conditionals cover only the numeric comparisons >, =, <, >= and <= on
|
||||
.BR \en(.$ ;
|
||||
string com\%par\%isons between a macro parameter and a literal;
|
||||
.B n
|
||||
(always true);
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR t
|
||||
(always false).
|
||||
Only single line input is accepted from conditionals;
|
||||
multi\-line input \- e.g., \\(\fIanything\fP\\) \- is not supported.
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
The handling of strings is generally primitive.
|
||||
.IP \(bu
|
||||
Horizontal motion via
|
||||
.B \eh
|
||||
must be supplied with a number register interpolation and must be
|
||||
positive - e. g.,
|
||||
.BR \ew\en(NN ,
|
||||
where the value in NN is >= 0.
|
||||
.IP \(bu
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B \ek
|
||||
function is reliable only after TAB characters, so it is useful only
|
||||
for measuring table positions.
|
||||
.IP \(bu
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B .di
|
||||
request only turns output on and off \- any macro name is ignored.
|
||||
.IP \(bu
|
||||
Expressions - e. g.,
|
||||
.B .sp
|
||||
- are reasonably general, but the
|
||||
.BR | ,
|
||||
.BR & ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR :\&
|
||||
operators do not exist, there must be white space between the end of the \*(Nr
|
||||
function and the beginning of the expression, and
|
||||
.B \ew
|
||||
requires that quote (') be used as the delimiters.
|
||||
.B \ew
|
||||
counts the characters inside the quotes and scales the result in ens,
|
||||
so that, for example, \ew'\e(bu' equals 4n, and \ew'\e(bu'/1n equals 4.
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
The only acceptable count for the
|
||||
.B .it
|
||||
request is one,
|
||||
and it is effective only with
|
||||
.BR man ,
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
or
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macros.
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
The default scaling factor is `v' for the
|
||||
.BR .ne ,
|
||||
.BR .sp ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B .pl
|
||||
raw \*(Nr requests; it is `u' for
|
||||
.BR .nr ;
|
||||
and `n' for
|
||||
.BR .in ,
|
||||
.BR .ll ,
|
||||
.BR .ls ,
|
||||
.BR .po ,
|
||||
.BR .ta
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR .ti .
|
||||
(A different scaling factor may be specified with a trailing character.)
|
||||
.PT
|
||||
Some obsolete or meaningless requests \-
|
||||
.BR .i0 ,
|
||||
.B .lg
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B .li
|
||||
\&\- are silently ignored.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
White space at the beginning of lines,
|
||||
and embedded white space within lines is dealt with properly.
|
||||
Sentence terminators at ends of lines are understood to imply
|
||||
extra space afterward in filled lines.
|
||||
Tabs are im\%plemented crudely and not exactly, although
|
||||
usually they work as expected.
|
||||
Hyphenation is done only at explicit hyphens, em-dashes, and \*(Nr
|
||||
discretionary hyphens.
|
||||
By default bold and italic characters are emulated with backspacing and
|
||||
overprinting, but the
|
||||
.B \-d
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B \-f
|
||||
options, combined with the contents of the device configuration file,
|
||||
may be used to generate special codes for bold and italic characters.
|
||||
(See the
|
||||
.B DEVICES
|
||||
section for more information.)
|
||||
.SH "MAN MACROS"
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B man
|
||||
macro set replicates the full V7 manual macros,
|
||||
plus a few semi-random oddballs.
|
||||
The full list is:
|
||||
.ES
|
||||
\&.AT .B .BI .BR .BY .DE .DS .DT .HP .I
|
||||
\&.IB .IP .IR .IX .LP .NB .P .PD .PP .RB

.EE
|
||||
.B .BY
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B .NB
|
||||
each take a single string argument (respectively, an indi\%cation of
|
||||
authorship and a note about the status of the manual page) and arrange
|
||||
to place it in the page footer.
|
||||
.B .AT
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B .IX
|
||||
do nothing.
|
||||
.SH "ME MACROS"
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
macro subset has been derived from the
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macros by Chet Creider <creider@csd.uwo.ca>.
|
||||
It includes:
|
||||
.ES
|
||||
\&.(l .(q .)l .)q .b .bu .i .ip .lp .np
|
||||
\&.pp .r .sh .sm .u .uh
|
||||
.EE
|
||||
The .(l C and .(l L options are supported.
|
||||
In addition, the .AB, .AE, .AI, .AU, .DA, .ND, .TL and .UX macros have
|
||||
been retained from the
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
set, and the .XP macro has been borrowed from the Berkeley additions to the
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macro set.
|
||||
.SH "MS MACROS"
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macro set is a substantial subset of the V7 manuscript macros.
|
||||
The macros are:
|
||||
.ES
|
||||
\&.AB .AE .AI .AU .B .CD .DA .DE .DS .I
|
||||
\&.ID .IP .LD .LG .LP .ND .NH .NL .PP .QE

||||
\&.QP .QS .R .RE .RP .RS .SH .SM .TL .TP
|

\&.UL .UX
|
||||
.EE
|
||||
Size changes are recognized but ignored, as are
|
||||
.B .RP
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR .ND .
|
||||
.B .UL
|
||||
just prints its argument in italics.
|
||||
.BR .DS / .DE
|
||||
does not do a keep,
|
||||
nor do any of the other macros that normally imply keeps.
|
||||
.LP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B DY
|
||||
string variable is available.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.BR PD ,
|
||||
.BR PI ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR LL
|
||||
number registers exist and can be changed.
|
||||
.SH "HEADERS AND FOOTERS"
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
allows the placement of text into the five line header and
|
||||
footer sections from the
|
||||
.BR LH ,
|
||||
.BR CH ,
|
||||
.BR RF ,
|
||||
.BR LF ,
|
||||
.BR CF ,
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B RF
|
||||
string variables, via the control of the
|
||||
.B .^b
|
||||
request:
|
||||
.LP
|
||||
.ta \w'.^b HF 0'u+3n
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
\&.^b fh 1 enables header string placement on the first page
|
||||
\&.^b fh 0 disables header string placement on the first page
|
||||
\&.^b HF 1 enables header/footer string placement
|
||||
\&.^b HF 0 disables header/footer string placement
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
.LP
|
||||
There are appropriate
|
||||
.B .^b
|
||||
requests in the distribution
|
||||
.BR man ,
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
and
|

|
||||
macro files.
|
||||
(The
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macro files use another
|
||||
.B .^b
|
||||
request, \fB.^b NH\fP, to enable numbered header processing.)
|
||||
.SH OUTPUT
|
||||
The default output format supported by
|
||||
.IR cawf ,
|
||||
in its distributed form,
|
||||
is that appropriate to a dumb terminal,
|
||||
using overprinting for italics (via underlining) and bold.
|
||||
The \*(Nr special characters are printed as some vague approximation
|
||||
(it's sometimes extremely vague) to their correct appearance.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
One part of
|
||||
.IR cawf 's
|
||||
knowledge of the output device, related to the formation of characters,
|
||||
is established by a device file, which is read before the user's input.
|
||||
The search for it begins in
|
||||
.IR cawf 's
|
||||
library directory, under the name \fIterm\fP.\fBdev\fP
|
||||
(where \fIterm\fR is the value of the TERM environment variable).
|
||||
Failing to find that,
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
searches for
|
||||
.BR dumb.dev .
|
||||
(See the
|
||||
.B FILES
|
||||
section for a description of the path to
|
||||
.IR cawf 's
|
||||
library directory.)
|
||||
The device file
|
||||
uses special internal requests
|
||||
to set up resolution, special characters
|
||||
and more normal \*(Nr functions to set up page length, etc.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
has limited support for fonts special forms of bold and italic characters.
|
||||
It is provided through the
|
||||
.B \-c
|
||||
.IR config ,
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
options.
|
||||
See the
|
||||
.B DEVICES
|
||||
section for more information.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Note the distinction between the device and the output device configuration
|
||||
files.
|
||||
The device file typically defines characters and constant output parameters.
|
||||
The output device configuration file defines font and type face codes.
|
||||
It is usually not necessary to define a separate device file for each
|
||||
device represented in the output device configuration file \- the
|
||||
.I dumb.dev
|
||||
device file will suffice for almost all representations.
|
||||
.SH DEVICES
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
supports primitive output device configuration for font and type face
|
||||
control.
|
||||
One font may be selected for the entire document by directing
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
to issue a font selection control character string at the beginning
|
||||
of the document, and control character strings may be selected for
|
||||
switching between the bold, italic and Roman type faces.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B \-c
|
||||
.IR config,
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
options direct the font and type face selections.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
option specifies the name of the device.
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
has three built\-in devices \- ANSI, NONE and NORMAL.
|
||||
When the ANSI device is selected,
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
issues the ANSI shadow mode control codes, ``ESC [ 7 m'', to represent
|
||||
the bold face;
|
||||
the ANSI underscore control codes, ``ESC [ 4 m'', to represent the italic
|
||||
face;
|
||||
and the ANSI control codes, ``ESC [ 0 m'', to represent the ROMAN face.
|
||||
No
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
specification is permitted with the ANSI device.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
When the NONE device is selected,
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
uses no special output codes to represent the type faces.
|
||||
No
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
specification is permitted with the ANSI device.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The NORMAL output device is the default.
|
||||
When it's selected,
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
overprints each bold character two times, using three issuances of each
|
||||
bold character, separated by backspace characters;
|
||||
it issues an underscore and backspace before each italic character.
|
||||
No
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
specification is permitted with the ANSI device.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.IR bsfilt (1)
|
||||
filter may be used to further process the backspace codes output for
|
||||
a NORMAL device.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
All other devices named in the
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
option must be represented by a stanza in the device configuration file.
|
||||
The device configuration file is usually contained in
|
||||
.I device.cf
|
||||
in
|
||||
.IR cawf's
|
||||
library directory (see the
|
||||
.B FILES
|
||||
section for more information).
|
||||
An alternate device configuration file path may be specified with the
|
||||
.BI \-c config
|
||||
option.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B DEVICE CONFIGURATION FILE
|
||||
section describes the organization of the device configuration file.

||||
It is easy to add devices to the
|
||||
.I device.cf
|
||||
supplied in the
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
distribution.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
option may be used with the
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
option, when the appropriate stanza in the device configuration file
|
||||
contains an entry for the named
|
||||
.IR font .
|
||||
The
|
||||
.B DEVICE CONFIGURATION FILE
|
||||
section describes how fonts are defined in device configuration file
|
||||
stanzas.
|
||||
.SH DEVICE CONFIGURATION FILE
|
||||
The device configuration file defines the special character codes
|
||||
necessary to direct output devices to select fonts and to produce
|
||||
bold, italic and Roman type faces.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The configuration file is usually found in
|
||||
.I device.cf
|
||||
in
|
||||
.IR cawf 's
|
||||
library directory (see the
|
||||
.B FILES
|
||||
section for more information).
|
||||
It is organized into two main parts \- comments and device stanzas.
|
||||
Comments are any lines that begin with the pound sign (`#') character.
|
||||
They are informational only and
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
ignores them.
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
also ignores empty lines, so they may be used as vertical white space.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Stanzas name devices and define their font and type face control strings.
|
||||
A stanza begins with the name of the device, starting at the beginning
|
||||
of a line and occupying the entire line.
|
||||
The body of the stanza, defining fonts and type faces, is formed of
|
||||
lines beginning with white space (a TAB or space characters) that
|
||||
directly follow the device name.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Individual lines of the stanza body contain a key character, followed
|
||||
by a equal sign, followed by the font name (if a font key) and the
|
||||
output device control codes.
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
issues the font control codes once, at the beginning of output, so
|
||||
only one font may be selected.
|
||||
The type face control codes are issued at each change of type face.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The key characters are:
|
||||
.ne 4
|
||||
.DS
|
||||
b for bold
|
||||
f for font definition
|
||||
i for italic
|
||||
r for Roman
|
||||
.DE
|
||||
The `b', `i' and `r' key codes are followed by an equal sign (`=') and
|
||||
their control code definition.
|
||||
The `f' key code is followed by an equal sign (`='), the font name,
|
||||
another equal sign and the font control code definition.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Control code definitions may contain any printable ASCII characters.
|
||||
Non\-printable characters may be encoded in octal notation with the `\\nnn'
|
||||
form or in hexadecimal with the `\\xnn' form.
|
||||
The special code, `\\E' (or `\\e') represents the ESC control
|
||||
character (\\033 or \\x1b).
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Here's a sample showing the definition for the HP LaserJet III.
|
||||
The stanza name is ``lj3''.
|
||||
All its non\-printable characters are ESCs; the first is coded in
|
||||
octal form; the second with '\\E'; the rest, in hexadecimal form.
|
||||
TAB is used as the leading white space character for the stanza
|
||||
body lines.

.SH HISTORY
|
||||
Vic Abell of Purdue University <abe@cc.purdue.edu> derived
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
from
|
||||
.IR awf ,
|
||||
\&``the Amazingly Workable (text) Formatter,''
|
||||
written by Henry Spencer of the University of Toronto.
|
||||
The Toronto work was a supplement to the C News project.
|
||||
The Purdue effort was aimed at producing a C language version that
|
||||
would run on small systems, particularly MS\-DOS ones.
|
||||
The adaptation of the
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
macros was done by Chet Creider <creider@csd.uwo.ca>.
|
||||
Chet also contributed ideas for device, font and type face support.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The MS\-DOS version of
|
||||
.I cawf
|
||||
has been compiled with version 2.5 of Microsoft's Quick-C compiler.
|
||||
It runs under the Mortis Kern Systems Toolkit KornShell,
|
||||
.IR ksh (1),
|
||||
and COMMAND.COM.
|
||||
.SH BUGS
|
||||
Nroff and troff mavens will have many complaints.
|
||||
Some may even represent bugs and not deliberate omissions.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Watch out for scaling factors - especially on requests like
|
||||
.BR \ew .
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The overprinting required to create bold and italicized characters is
|
||||
tiresome on a slow printer.
|
||||
The
|
||||
.IR bsfilt (1)
|
||||
post\-filter from this distribution may be used to alleviate that
|
||||
nuisance by managing the backspacing codes from
|
||||
.IR cawf 's
|
||||
NORMAL device output.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The printing of bold and italic characters is sometimes better handled by
|
||||
special printer codes.
|
||||
Use
|
||||
.IR cawf 's
|
||||
.B \-c
|
||||
.IR config ,
|
||||
.BI \-d device
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BI \-f font
|
||||
options to produce special font and device output control codes.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I Cawf
|
||||
has a small amount of built-in code for the
|
||||
.BR man ,
|
||||
.B me
|
||||
and
|
||||
.B ms
|
||||
macro packages, but none for any others.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
The stacking for the
|
||||
.B .so
|
||||
request is limited.
