  Argument Specifications:

  ccc... :             A list of characters.



  char :               Any single character.



  ioio... :    A list of character pairs.  If an odd number

                               of characters is given, then the last character

                               is paired with a space.



  filename :   Standard filename.  If the drive or suffix

                               is omitted, then the drive or suffix of the

                               original file is used.



  name :               The name of a chapter, section or subsection.



  numchars :   A number of characters.



  numlines :   A number of lines.



  pageno :             A new page number.



  pair :               Any single character (used as toggle), or

                               a pair of characters (start and stop).

                               Omission disables feature.



  sequence :   A sequence of numbers and strings.  Numbers

                               are translated into ASCII characters; strings

                               are taken as is.  (27 "X" 1) is "<ESC>X^A".



  title :              [See below]



  X :                  The number of the chapter when used in the

                               chapter heading (sometimes spelled out or in

                               Roman numerals).



  Y :                  The number of the chapter when used in section

                               and subsection headings.



  xyz :                Three style parameters for chapter, section

                               and subsection headings respectively.  The

                               parameter may be "b" for boldface, "i" for

                               italics, "u" for underlined, or "-" for normal.

                               ("bui" means boldface chapter headings,

                               underline section headings, and italicize

                               subsection headings).



  Yes/No :             "Y" or "N".  Omission is treated as Yes.



  If any argument is omitted, then the default is used.





  The Margins are as follows:



   Margin 1    Before Headers

   Margin 2    Headers (extra lines after headers left blank)

   Margin 3    Footers (extra lines before footers left blank)

   Margin 4    After Footer



  A title (header or footer) has the following format:



      'left'center'right'



  where the single quote represents any non-blank delimiter,

  "left" is a string to be left-justified on the output line,

  "center" is a string to be centered on the output line, and

  "right" is a string to be right-justified on the output line.

  A '%' appearing in any of these strings will be replaced with

  the current page number on output. '%%' will become '%'.



  The # in header/footer requests indicates which header/footer

  line is to be set.  Header 1 is at the top of Margin 2; footer 1

  is at the bottom of Margin 3.



  Note the following commands are equivalent:



   .fi No      .nf

   .ju No      .nj
