|

.I Pic

If
|
||
|
.IR optional-width
|
||
|
is present, the picture is made that many inches wide,
|
||
|
regardless of any dimensions used internally.
|
||
|
The height is scaled in the same proportion unless
|
||
|
.IR optional-height
|
||
|
is present.
|
||
|
If
|
||
|
.B .PF
|
||
|
is used instead of
|
||
|
.BR .PE ,
|
||
|
the typesetting position after printing is restored to what it was
|
||
|
upon entry.
|

.PP
|

An
|
||

.IR element-list
|

is a list of elements:

.EE
|

.PP
|
||
|
Elements are separated by newlines or semicolons;
|
||
|
a long element may be continued by ending the line with a backslash.
|
||
|
Comments are introduced by a
|
||
|
.BI #
|
||
|
and terminated by a newline.
|
||
|
Variable names begin with a lower case letter;
|
||
|
place names begin with upper case.
|
||
|
Place and variable names retain their values
|
||
|
from one picture to the next.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
After each primitive
|
||
|
the current position moves in the current direction
|
||
|
.RB ( up , down ,
|
||
|
.BR left , right
|
||
|
(default)) by the size of the primitive.
|
||
|
The current position and direction are saved upon entry
|
||
|
to a
|
||
|
.BR { ... }
|
||
|
block and restored upon exit.
|
||
|
Elements within a block enclosed in
|
||
|
.BR [ ... ]
|
||
|
are treated as a unit;
|
||
|
the dimensions are determined by the extreme points
|
||
|
of the contained objects.
|
||
|
Names, variables, and direction of motion within a block are local to that block.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.IR Troff-command
|
||
|
is any line that begins with a period.
|
||
|
Such a line is assumed to make sense in the context where it appears;
|
||
|
generally, this means only size and font changes.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.I primitive
|

objects are:

.LR "line ->" .
|

.PP
|
||
|
An
|
||
|
.IR attribute-list
|
||
|
is a sequence of zero or more attributes;
|
||
|
each attribute consists of a keyword, perhaps followed by a value.
|
||
|
.EX
|

.EE
|
||
|
Missing attributes and values are filled in from defaults.
|
||
|
Not all attributes make sense for all primitives;
|
||
|
irrelevant ones are silently ignored.
|
||
|
The attribute
|
||
|
.L at
|
||
|
causes the geometrical center to be put at the specified place;
|
||
|
.L with
|
||
|
causes the position on the object to be put at the specified place.
|
||
|
For lines, splines and arcs,
|
||
|
.L height
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.L width
|
||
|
refer to arrowhead size.
|
||
|
A bare
|
||
|
.I expr
|
||
|
implies motion in the current direction.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Text is normally an attribute of some primitive;
|
||
|
by default it is placed at the geometrical center of the object.
|
||
|
Stand-alone text is also permitted.
|
||
|
A text list
|
||
|
is a list of text items:
|
||
|
.EX
|
||
|
\f2 text-item\fP:
|
||
|
"..." \f2positioning ...\fP
|
||
|
sprintf("\f2format\fP", \f2expr\fP, \f2...\fP) \f2positioning ...\fP
|
||
|
\f2 positioning\fP:
|
||
|
center ljust rjust above below
|
||
|
.EE
|
||
|
If there are multiple text items for some primitive,
|
||
|
they are arranged vertically and centered except as qualified.
|
||
|
Positioning requests apply to each item independently.
|
||
|
Text items may contain
|
||
|
.I troff
|
||
|
commands for size and font changes, local motions, etc.,
|
||
|
but make sure that these are balanced
|
||
|
so that the entering state is restored before exiting.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
A position is ultimately an
|
||
|
.I x,y
|
||
|
coordinate pair, but it may be specified in other ways.

.EX
|
