[ITP] mom-1.1.7.1 - Groff type setting macros


http://www.ncf.ca/~df191/mom.html

Macro set for groff, designed to format documents for PostScript output.

mom is two macro packages in one: a set of typesetting macros, and a
set of document processing macros. The typesetting macros govern the
physical aspects of page layout and provide sane, comprehensible
control over typographic refinements. The document processing macros
let you focus on a document's content and logical structure without
worrying about typesetting or page layout at all.

Mom aims to make creating documents a simple matter, but with no
corresponding loss of user control. The document processing macros
provide an excellent set of defaults, but if something is not to your
liking, you can change it. And in combination with the typesetting
macros, you have all the tools you need to massage passages and tweak
pages until they look utterly professional.

Mom's macro file is om.tmac and it is used like:

  groff -mom filename > filename.ps
  gv filename.ps



a)

wget --non-verbose  \
