Modifications to RNO from CARTS The following modifications have beene made to the standard RUNOFF. This is a re-issue of the RUNOFF on the last SIG tape. 1. Change bar support. This allows modified areas of text to be marked by a bar (| ASCII code 174 octal) on the left hand side of the page. 2. .BLANK and .SKIP may use negative arguments. This allows text to be moves some number of lines from the end of the page. 3. A shift right switch /RI. This switch allows text to be shifted right some number of columns. 4. Allowing tabs to be relative as well as absolute column number. 5. New commands for emphasis. Dark (via overprinting) and underlining, and commands to easily set the "underscore lock". 6. Support to change character-size for an LA-120 instream. 7. Some misc fixes, to FIGURE, FOOTNOTE, and others 8. New switches to set the default margins and page size on the command line, plus the ability to set some defaults in the task-build command file. 9. FINALLY, after long at last!!!!!!! Table of Contents. Table of Contents is generated by Header-level commands, and is automatically generated at the end of the file. 10. The /PA switch now goes by absolute page number, so that it is usable even on chapter-oriented files. 11. Special characters within a ".LITERAL" are treated as they should be, literally. Page 2 12. The defaults for the output file have been changed slightly, so that it is easier to use. Also, the output device is attached (if it is record-oriented), so that ^O will work. 13. The document has been fixed up & several corrections made. I started to put an explanation in the DOC file about the margins (which is done wierdly), but didn't have time to get it in. To install runoff: Type "@MAKRNO", then throw away the .TSK file you don't want. You may want to edit the task-build file to modify defaults. At Fermilab, we have used these modifications without problems for some time. If you have problems, call Daniel B. Curtis at (312) 840-3927. The fixes for change bar were done by Dan Curtis (no longer at Fermilab) The other stuff was done by Ray Van Tassle, Motorola, (312)-576-6017 As part of my changes, I may have lost the command files that were specific to RSTS. If so, sorry. RVT by: Ray Van Tassle Motorola 1301 E. Algonquin Rd. Room 4135 Schaumburg, Ill. 312-576-6017
