+.EE +.LP +The +.B .html +request is intended for block-level HTML constructs (those that can contain +.BR

). +Unlike +.BR .html , +.B .ihtml +treats the open HTML tags as a set rather than a stack: +each must be explicitly closed. +Although it treats the tags as a set, +.B .ihtml +treats nesting properly in the output, +closing and reopening tags as necessary. +For example, the input: +.IP +.EX +\&.ihtml style +\&.ihtml link +Bold +\&.ihtml style +and italic, still linked. +\&.ihtml link +Unlinked. +\&.ihtml style +.EE +.LP +produces this output: +.IP +.EX +Bold +and italic, still linked. +Unlinked. +.EE +.PP +Outside of +.B .html +and +.B .ihtml +requests, the characters +.L < , +.L > , +and +.L & +are treated as normal characters, not HTML markers, +and are translated to +.L < , +.L > , +and +.L & +on output. +To embed the raw HTML markers, use +.L \e< , +.L \e> , +and +.L \e@ +.RI [ sic ]. +.SS Font changes +.PP +.I Htmlroff +interprets the usual +.BR \ef , +.BR .ft , +.BR \es , +and +.B .ps +requests to change the font and point size. +After applying each such change to its internal registers, +.I htmlroff +invokes the +.B .font +macro to emit corresponding HTML. +The default definition of +.B .font +is: +.IP +.EX +\&.de font +\&.ihtml f1 +\&.ihtml f +\&.ihtml f +\&.if \\n(.f==2 .ihtml f1 +\&.if \\n(.f==3 .ihtml f1 +\&.if \\n(.f==4 .ihtml f1 +\&.if \\n(.f==5 .ihtml f1 +\&.if \\n(.f==6 .ihtml f1 +\&.. +.EE +.LP +Input files can redefine +.B .font +like any other request or macro. +.SS Paragraphs +.I Htmlroff +implements line height, text adjustment, and margins by +wrapping all output text in +.B

+tags. +This behavior can be disabled by setting the +.B .paragraph +number register to zero. +Setting the +.B .margin +register to zero +eliminates only the margin annotations. +.SS Subscripts and superscripts +.PP +.I Htmlroff +interprets the +.BR \eu , +.BR \ed , +and +.BR \ev +requests to move vertically during output. +It emits output vertically offset up the page inside +.B +tags and output vertically offset down the page +inside +.B +tags. +This heuristic handles simple equations formatted by +.IR eqn (1). +.SS Conditional input +.PP +To make it easier to write input files that can be formatted by both +.I troff +and +.IR htmlroff , +.I htmlroff +adds a new condition +.B h +which evaluates true in +.B .if +and +.B .ie +requests. +The +.B t +condition continues to evaluate true, to accomodate +input files trying to distinguish between +.I troff +and +.IR nroff . +To write a conditional matching +.I troff +alone, use +.RB ` ".if !h .if t" '. +.PP +.I Htmlroff 's +handling of conditional input does not match +.IR troff 's +exactly. +For example, +.IP +.EX +\&.if 0 \e{\e +\&.de xx +\&.. +\&.\e} +.EE +.LP +redefines the +.B xx +macro in +.I troff +but not in +.IR htmlroff . +Do not write files depending on this behavior, as this bug may be fixed +in the future. +.I Htmlroff +also mishandles +.B \e} +in some cases. To work around them, use +.B .\e} +on a line by itself, as in the last example. +.SS Diversions +.PP +Diversions in +.I htmlroff +use the alignment in effect at the time of the +diversion +when output. +In particular, +.IP +.EX +\&.di xx +Line here. +\&.di +\&.nf +\&.ce +\&.xx +.EE +.LP +produces a centered line in +.I troff +but not in +.IR htmlroff . +The solution is to center inside the diversion, as in +.IP +.EX +\&.di xx +\&.if h .ce 999 +Line here +\&.di +.EE +.SS Input pipes +.PP +.I Htmlroff +adds a new request +.B .inputpipe +.I stop +.I cmd +that redirects +.I htmlroff 's +input into a pipe to the +given +.I cmd . +The redirection stops on encountering the line +.IR stop , +optionally followed by white space and extra text. +This is a dangerous and clusmy request, as +.I htmlroff +stops interpreting its input during the redirection, so +.I stop +must be found in the input itself, not in a macro that +the input might appear to call. +Although clusmy, +.B .inputpipe +allows input files to invoke +.I troff +to handle complicated input. +For example, +.B tmac.html +redefines the +.B PS +macro that marks the beginning of a +.IR pic (1) +picture: +.IP +.EX +\&.nr png -1 1 +\&.de PS +\&.ds pngbase "\e\e*[basename] +\&.if '\e\e*[pngbase]'' .ds pngbase \e\en(.B +\&.ds pngfile \e\e*[pngbase]\e\en+[png].png +\&.html -
