.sh DESCRIPTION
.it Nroff
formats text according to control lines embedded
in the text files.
.it Nroff
will read the standard input if
no file
arguments are given.
The non-file option arguments are interpreted as follows:
.s3
.lp +4 4
\fB+\fIn\fR	Output will commence at the first page whose page
number is
.it n
or larger
.s3
.lp +4 4
\fB\*-\fIn\fR	will
cause printing to stop after page
.it n.
.s3
.lp +4 4
\fB\*-s\fR	Stop prior to
each page to permit paper
loading.
Printing is restarted by
typing a `newline' character.
.s3
.lp +4 4
\fB\*-h\fR	Spaces
are replaced where possible
with
tabs to speed up output (or reduce
the size of the output file).
.s3
.lp +4 4
\fB\*-q\fR	Prompt
names for insertions are not printed
and the bell character is sent instead;
the insertion is not echoed.
.s3
.lp +4 4
\fB\*-i\fR	Causes the
standard input to be read after the files.
