put, intermixed with formatting commands. A formatting command
is a line containing the control character followed by a two

control character is initially . (dot). The formatted output is
produced on standard output. The formatting commands are listed
below, with being a number, being a character, and being a title.

negative change from the current value. Initial values for where
relevant, are given in parentheses.
.ad Adjust right margin.
.ar Arabic page numbers.

.cc c Control character is set to c.
.ce n Center the next n input lines.
.de zz Define a macro called zz. A line with .. ends definition.

.fi Begin filling output lines as full as possible.
.fo t Footer titles (even and odd) are set to t.
.hc c The character c (e.g., %) tells roff where hyphens are permitted.
.he t Header titles (even and odd) are set to t.

.ll +n Line length (including indent) is set to n (65).
.ls +n Line spacing: n (1) is 1 for single spacing, 2 for double, etc.
