+Tabs, Leaders, and Fields
+.sc
+Tabs and leaders.
+The \s-1ASCII\s+1 horizontal tab character and the \s-1ASCII\s+1
+\s-1SOH\s+1 (hereafter known as the \fIleader\fR character)
+can both be used to generate either horizontal motion or
+a string of repeated characters.
+The length of the generated entity is governed
+by internal \fItab stops\fR specifiable
+with \fBta\fR.
+The default difference is that tabs generate motion and leaders generate
+a string of periods;
+\fBtc\fR and \fBlc\fR
+offer the choice of repeated character or motion.
+There are three types of internal tab stops\(em\
+\fIleft\fR adjusting, \fIright\fR adjusting,
+and \fIcentering\fR.
+In the following table:
+\fID\fR is the distance from the current position on the \fIinput\fR line
+(where a tab or leader was found)
+to the next tab stop;
+\fInext-string\fR consists
+of the input characters following the tab (or leader) up to the next tab (or leader) or end of line;
+and
+\fIW\fR is the width of \fInext-string\fR.

+Right \fID\-W\fR Right adjusted within \fID\fR
+Centered \fID\-W\(sl\fR2 Centered on right end of \fID\fR
+.TE
+The length of generated motion is allowed to be negative, but
+that of a repeated character string cannot be.
+Repeated character strings contain an integer number of characters, and
+any residual distance is prepended as motion.
+Tabs or leaders found after the last tab stop are ignored, but may be used
+as \fInext-string\fR terminators.
+.pg
+Tabs and leaders are not interpreted in \fIcopy mode\fR.
+\fB\et\fR and \fB\ea\fR always generate a non-interpreted
+tab and leader respectively, and
+are equivalent to actual tabs and leaders in \fIcopy mode\fR.
+.sc
+Fields.
+A \fIfield\fR is contained between
+a \fIpair\fR of \fIfield delimiter\fR characters,
+and consists of sub-strings
+separated by \fIpadding\fR indicator characters.
+The field length is the distance on the
+\fIinput\fR line from the position where the field begins to the next tab stop.
+The difference between the total length of all the sub-strings
+and the field length is incorporated as horizontal
+padding space that is divided among the indicated
+padding places.
+The incorporated padding is allowed to be negative.
+For example,
+if the field delimiter is \fB#\fR and the padding indicator is \fB^\fR,
+\fB#^\fIxxx\fB^\fIright\|\fB#\fR
+specifies a right-adjusted string with the string \fIxxx\fR centered
+in the remaining space.

+Input and Output Conventions and Character Translations
+.sc
+Input character translations.
+Ways of inputting the graphic character set were
+discussed in \(sc2.1.
+The \s-1ASCII\s+1 control characters horizontal tab (\(sc9.1),
+\s-1SOH\s+1 (\(sc9.1), and backspace (\(sc10.3) are discussed elsewhere.
+The newline delimits input lines.
+In addition,
+\s-1STX\s+1, \s-1ETX\s+1, \s-1ENQ\s+1, \s-1ACK\s+1, and \s-1BEL\s+1
+are accepted,
+and may be used as delimiters or translated into a graphic with \fBtr\fR (\(sc10.5).
+\fIAll\fR others are ignored.
+.pg
+The \fIescape\fR character \fB\e\fR
+introduces \fIescape sequences\fR\(em\
+causes the following character to mean
+another character, or to indicate
+some function.
+A complete list of such sequences is given in the Summary and Index on page 6.
+\fB\e\fR
+should not be confused with the \s-1ASCII\s+1 control character \s-1ESC\s+1 of the
+same name.
+The escape character \fB\e\fR can be input with the sequence \fB\e\e\fR.
+The escape character can be changed with \fBec\fR,
+and all that has been said about the default \fB\e\fR becomes true
+for the new escape character.
+\fB\ee\fR can be used to print whatever the current escape character is.
+If necessary or convenient, the escape mechanism may be turned off with \fBeo\fR,
+and restored with \fBec\fR.
+.h1
+.bt
+\fB&ec\fI|c\fR \fB\e\fR \fB\e\fR - \
+Set escape character to \fB\e\fR, or to \fIc\fR, if given.
+.bt
+\fB&eo\fR on - - Turn escape mechanism off.
+.sc
+Ligatures.
+.lg 0
+Five ligatures are available
+in the current \*(TR character set \(em
+\fB\(fi\fR, \fB\(fl\fR, \fB\(ff\fR, \fB\(Fi\fR, and \fB\(Fl\fR.
+They may be input (even in \*(NR) by
+\fB\e(fi\fR, \fB\e(fl\fR, \fB\e(ff\fR, \fB\e(Fi\fR, and \fB\e(Fl\fR respectively.
+.lg
+The ligature mode is normally on in \*(TR, and \fIautomatically\fR invokes
+ligatures during input.
+.h1
+.bt
+\fB&lg\fI|N\fR off;|on on - Ligature mode
+is turned on if \fIN\fR is absent or non-zero,
+and turned off if \fIN\(eq\^\fR0.
+If \fIN\fR\(eq\^2, only the two-character ligatures are automatically invoked.
+Ligature mode is inhibited for
+request, macro, string, register, or file names,
+and in \fIcopy mode\fR.
+No effect in \*(NR.
+.sc
+Backspacing, underlining, overstriking, etc.
+Unless in \fIcopy mode\fR, the \s-1ASCII\s+1 backspace character is replaced
+by a backward horizontal motion having the width of the
+space character.
+Underlining as a form of line-drawing is discussed in \(sc12.4.
+A generalized overstriking function is described in \(sc12.1.
+.pg
+\*(NR automatically underlines
+characters in the \fIunderline\fR font,
+specifiable with \fBuf\fR,
+normally Times Italic on font position 2 (see \(sc2.2).
+In addition to \fBft\fR and \fB\ef\fIF\fR,
+the underline font may be selected by \fBul\fR and \fBcu\fR.
+Underlining is restricted to an output-device-dependent
+subset of \fIreasonable\fR characters.

+Actually, switch to \fIunderline\fR font, saving the
+current font for later restoration;
+\fIother\fR font changes within the span of a \fBul\fR
+will take effect,
+but the restoration will undo the last change.
+Output generated by \fBtl\fR (\(sc14) \fIis\fR affected by the
+font change, but does \fInot\fR decrement \fIN\fR.
+If \fIN\fR\^>\^1, there is the risk that
+a trap interpolated macro may provide text
+lines within the span;
+environment switching can prevent this.
+.bt
+\fB&cu\fI|N\fR off \fIN\(eq\fR1 E \
+A variant of \fBul\fR that causes \fIevery\fR character to be underlined in \*(NR.
+Identical to \fBul\fR in \*(TR.

+\fB&uf\fI|F\fR Italic Italic - \
+Underline font set to \fIF\fR.
+In \*(NR,
+\fIF\fR may \fInot\fR be on position 1 (initially Times Roman).
+.sc
+Control characters.
+Both the control character \fB.\fR and the \fIno-break\fR
+control character \fB\'\fR may be changed, if desired.
+Such a change must be compatible with the design
+of any macros used in the span of the change,
+and
+particularly of any trap-invoked macros.
+.h1
+.bt
+\fB&cc\fI|c\fR \fB.\fR \fB.\fR E \
+The basic control character is set to \fIc\fR,
+or reset to "\fB.\fR".
+.bt
+\fB&c2\fI|c\fR \fB\' \'\fR E The \fInobreak\fR control character is set
+to \fIc\fR, or reset to "\fB\'\fR".
+.sc
+Output translation.
+One character can be made a stand-in for another character using \fBtr\fR.
+All text processing (e. g. character comparisons) takes place
+with the input (stand-in) character which appears to have the width of the final
+character.
+The graphic translation occurs at the moment of output
+(including diversion).
+.h1
+.bt
+\fB&tr\fI|abcd....\fR none - O Translate \
+\fIa\fR into \fIb\fR, \fIc\fR into \fId\fR, etc.
+If an odd number of characters is given,
+the last one will be mapped into the space character.
+To be consistent, a particular translation
+must stay in effect from \fIinput\fR to \fIoutput\fR time.
+.sc
+Transparent throughput.
+An input line beginning with a \fB\e!\fR is read in \fIcopy mode\fR and \fItransparently\fR output
+(without the initial \fB\e!\fR);
+the text processor is otherwise unaware of the line's presence.
+This mechanism may be used to pass control information to a post-processor
+or to imbed control lines in a macro created by a diversion.
+.sc
+Comments and concealed newlines.
+An uncomfortably long input line that must stay
+one line (e. g. a string definition, or nofilled text)
+can be split into many physical lines by ending all but
+the last one with the escape \fB\e\fR.
+The sequence \fB\e\fR(newline) is \fIalways\fR ignored\(em\
+except in a comment.
+Comments may be imbedded at the \fIend\fR of any line by
+prefacing them with \fB\e"\fR.
+The newline at the end of a comment cannot be concealed.
+A line beginning with \fB\e"\fR will appear as a blank line and
+behave like \fB.sp|1\fR;
+a comment can be on a line by itself by beginning the line with \fB.\e"\fR.
+.mh
+Local Horizontal and Vertical Motions, and the Width Function
+.sc
+Local Motions.
+The functions \fB\ev\'\fIN\fB\|\'\fR and
+\fB\eh\'\fIN\fB\|\'\fR
+can be used for \fIlocal\fR vertical and horizontal motion respectively.
+The distance \fIN\fR may be negative; the \fIpositive\fR directions
+are \fIrightward\fR and \fIdownward\fR.
+A \fIlocal\fR motion is one contained \fIwithin\fR a line.
+To avoid unexpected vertical dislocations, it is necessary that
+the \fInet\fR vertical local motion within a word in filled text
+and otherwise within a line balance to zero.
+The above and certain other escape sequences providing local motion are
+summarized in the following table.

+As an example,
+\fBE\s-2\v'-.4m'2\v'.4m'\s+2\fR
+could be generated by the sequence
+\fBE\es\-2\ev\'\-0.4m\'2\ev\'0.4m\'\es+2\fR;
+it should be noted in this example that
+the 0.4|em vertical motions are at the smaller size.
+.sc
+Width Function.
+The \fIwidth\fR function \fB\ew\'\fIstring\fB\|\'\fR
+generates the numerical width of \fIstring\fR (in basic units).
+Size and font changes may be safely imbedded in \fIstring\fR,
+and will not affect the current environment.
+For example,
+\&\fB.ti|\-\\w\'1.|\'u\fR could be used to
+temporarily indent leftward a distance equal to the
+size of the string "\fB1.|\fR".
+.pg
+The width function also sets three number registers.
+The registers \fBst\fR and \fBsb\fR are set respectively to the highest and
+lowest extent of \fIstring\fR relative to the baseline;
+then, for example,
+the total \fIheight\fR of the string is \fB\en(stu\-\en(sbu\fR.
+In \*(TR the number register \fBct\fR is set to a value
+between 0|and|3:
+0 means that all of the characters in \fIstring\fR were short lower
+case characters without descenders (like \fBe\fR);
+1 means that at least one character has a descender (like \fBy\fR);
+2 means that at least one character is tall (like \fBH\fR);
+and 3 means that both tall characters and characters with
+descenders are present.
+.sc
+Mark horizontal place.
+The escape sequence \fB\ek\fIx\fR will cause the \fIcurrent\fR horizontal
+position in the \fIinput line\fR to be stored in register \fIx\fR.
+As an example,
+the construction \fB\ekx\fIword\|\fB\eh\'\|~\|\enxu+2u\'\fIword\fB\fR
+will embolden \fIword\fR by backing up to almost its beginning and overprinting it,
+resulting in \kz\fIword\fR\h'|\nzu+2u'\fIword\fR.
+.mh
+Overstrike, Bracket, Line-drawing, and Zero-width Functions
+.sc
+Overstriking.
+Automatically centered overstriking of up to nine characters
+is provided by the \fIoverstrike\fR function
+\fB\eo\'\fIstring\fB\|\'\fR.
+The characters in \fIstring\fR are overprinted with centers aligned; the total width
+is that of the widest character.
+\fIstring\fR should \fInot\fR contain local vertical motion.
+As examples,
+\fB\eo\'e\e\'\'\fR produces \fB\o'e\''\fR, and
+\fB\eo\'\e(mo\e(sl\'\fR produces \fB\o'\(mo\(sl'\fR.
+.sc
+Zero-width characters.
+The function \fB\ez\fIc\fR will output \fIc\fR without spacing over
+it, and can be used to produce left-aligned overstruck
+combinations.
+As examples,
+\fB\ez\e(ci\e(pl\fR will produce \fB\z\(ci\(pl\fR, and
+\fB\e(br\ez\e(rn\e(ul\e(br\fR will produce the smallest possible
+constructed box \fB\(br\z\(rn\(ul\(br\fR\|.
+.sc
+Large Brackets.
+The Special Mathematical Font contains a number of bracket construction pieces
+(\|\|\|\(lt\|\|\|\(lb\|\|\|\(rt\|\|\|\(rb\|\|\|\(lk\|\|\|\(rk\|\|\|\(bv\|\|\|\(lf\|\|\|\(rf\|\|\|\(lc\|\|\|\(rc\|\|)
+that can be combined into various bracket styles.
+The function \fB\eb\'\fIstring\fB\|\'\fR may be used to pile
+up vertically the characters in \fIstring\fR
+(the first character on top and the last at the bottom);
+the characters are vertically separated by 1|em and the total
+pile is centered 1\(sl2\|em above the current baseline
+(\(12 line in \*(NR).
+For example,
+\fB\eb\'\|\e(lc\e(lf\|\'E\e\|~\|\eb\'\|\e(rc\e(rf\|\'\|\ex\'\|\-0.5m\'\|\ex\'0.5m\'\|\fR
+produces
+\x'-.5m'\x'.5m'\fB\b'\(lc\(lf'E\|\b'\(rc\(rf'\fR.
+.sc
+Line drawing.
+.tr &&
+The function \fB\e\|l\|\'\fINc\fB\|\'\fR will draw a string of repeated \fIc\fR\|'s towards the right for a distance \fIN\fR.
+(\|\fB\el\fR is \fB\e\fR(lower case L).
+If \fIc\fR looks like a continuation of
+an expression for \fIN\fR, it may insulated from \fIN\fR with a \fB\e&\fR.
+If \fIc\fR is not specified, the \fB\(ru\fR (baseline rule) is used
+(underline character in \*(NR).
+If \fIN\fR is negative, a backward horizontal motion
+of size \fIN\fR is made \fIbefore\fR drawing the string.
+Any space resulting from \fIN\fR\|\(sl(size of \fIc\fR) having a remainder is put at the beginning (left end)
+of the string.
+In the case of characters
+that are designed to be connected such as
+baseline-rule\ \fB\(ru\fR\|,
+underrule\ \fB\(ul\fR\|,
+and
+root-en\ \fB\(rn\fR\|,
+the remainder space is covered by over-lapping.
+If \fIN\fR is \fIless\fR than the width of \fIc\fR,
+a single \fIc\fR is centered on a distance \fIN\fR.
+As an example, a macro to underscore a string can be written

+.pg
+The function \fB\eL\'\|\fINc\fB\|\'\fR will draw a vertical line consisting

+(1 line in \*(NR),
+with the first two characters overlapped,
+if necessary, to form a continuous line.
+The default character is the \fIbox rule\fR |\(br| (\fB\|\e(br\fR);
+the other suitable character is the \fIbold vertical\fR \|\(bv\| (\fB\|\e(bv\fR).
+The line is begun without any initial motion relative to the
+current base line.
+A positive \fIN\fR specifies a line drawn downward and
+a negative \fIN\fR specifies a line drawn upward.
