| |
| <p>The break commands create or allow line and paragraph breaks: |
| </p> |
| <dl class="table"> |
| <dt><code class="code">@*</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Force a line break. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code class="code">@sp <var class="var">n</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Skip <var class="var">n</var> blank lines. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code class="code">@-</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Insert a discretionary hyphen. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code class="code">@hyphenation{<var class="var">hy-phen-a-ted words</var>}</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Define hyphen points in <var class="var">hy-phen-a-ted words</var>. |
| </p></dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| <p>These commands hold text together on a single line: |
| </p> |
| <dl class="table"> |
| <dt><code class="code">@w{<var class="var">text</var>}</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Prevent <var class="var">text</var> from being split and hyphenated across two lines. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code class="code">@tie{}</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Insert a normal interword space at which a line break may not occur. |
| </p></dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| <p>The pagination commands apply only to printed output, since other |
| output formats do not have pages. |
| </p> |
| <dl class="table"> |
| <dt><code class="code">@page</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Start a new page. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code class="code">@group</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Hold text together that must appear on one page. |
| </p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt><code class="code">@need <var class="var">mils</var></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Start a new page if not enough space on this one. |
| </p></dd> |
