Have added it to http://troff.org/papers.html, thanks. Regarding Multiplication of terms, expressed by juxtaposition, can be constructed by again simply entering the expression as you would normally write it (but note the use of spaces to separate symbols and signs (tokens) in the expression): .EQ f ( x , y ) = a + b x + c y + p x y + ( 1 - x ) ( 2 - y ) .EN f(x, y) = a + bx + cy + pxy + (1 - x)(2 - y) is it a bit misleading to suggest spaces are required around every token? It suggests to the reader that it's going to be laborious to type compared with simple entry. Kernighan and Cherry's User's Guide, 2nd Ed., makes a point in section 3 that whitespace doesn't matter too much. A more naturally written input, .EQ f(x, y) = a + bx + cy + pxy + (1 - x)(2 - y) .EN produces the same output. Cheers, Ralph.
