Hello All, I am trying to get dformat to work. What I did was this.
I first tried to include an example dformat script into my document. I got the first example from the troff.org site (https://troff.org/prog.html). The first example for the dformat processor. That example has been using inline equations/math expressions. Then I went and got the dformat awk script. That script I got from (https://github.com/arnoldrobbins/dformat) which might not be the original script. Anyways I have this simple document. .TL Some format .NH deneme .EQ delim @@ .EN .LP .begin dformat style bitwid 0.08 style charwid 0 style recspread 0.3 noname --16 Frame --16 Frame A1: --16 Frame --16 Frame --8-dashed ... noname A2: 8--8 Flags 8--8 Status --8 @roman Chunk sub 1@ B1: --8 @roman Chunk sub 2@ --8-dashed ... --8 @roman Chunk sub m@ 16--16 CRC A3: 8--8 Flags noname B2: 8--8 @roman Data sub 1@ 8--8 @roman Data sub 2@ 8--8 @roman Data sub 3@ 8--8 @roman Data sub 4@ --8-dashed ... 8--8 @roman Data sub n-1@ 8--8 @roman Data sub n@ 6--6 Length B3: 10--10 Channel # pic line dotted from A1.sw to A2.nw pic line dotted from A1.se to A3.ne pic line dotted from B1.sw to B2.nw pic line dotted from B1.se to B3.ne .end And am running the command line as !sh dformat.sh format-test.ms | eqn | pic | groff -ms > main.ps The command says this pic:<standard input>:98: syntax error before '\' pic:<standard input>:98: giving up on this picture Does anybody use dformat? Which dformat script are you using? Regards, Riza
