neqn(1)                                                   neqn(1)



NAME
     neqn - formats mathematical text for nroff

SYNOPSIS
     neqn [-dxy] [-fn] [-pn] [-sn] [-] [file]...

ARGUMENTS
     -    Causes neqn to read the standard input, if this option
          is specified as the last argument.

     -dxy Sets delimiters to x and y between .EQ and .EN.  The
          left and right delimiters may be the same character.
          The dollar sign ($) is often used as such a delimiter.
          All text that is neither between delimiters nor between
          .EQ and .EN is passed through untouched.

     file Specifies the file to be formatted.  If this option is
          not given, neqn reads the standard input.

     -fn  Specifies the font to be used.  Replace n with the
          desired font.

     -pn  Specifies the point size of the equation.  Replace n
          with a point size.  The legal point size numbers are:

             6  7  8  9  10  11  12  14
             16  18  20  22  24  28  36

     -sn  Specifies the amount to reduce or enlarge the point
          size of the equation.  The default size is 10.  Replace
          n with the number in which you want the default size
          reduced or enlarged.

DESCRIPTION
     neqn is a preprocessor for typesetting mathematical text on
     typewriter-like terminals.  Normal usage is:

        neqn [option]... [file]...| nroff [option]... | [printer]

     Full details of use are given in eqn(1).
