ROFFBIB(1) ROFFBIB(1) NAME roffbib - run off bibliographic database SYNOPSIS roffbib [ -e ] [ -h ] [ -n ] [ -o ] [ -r ] [ -s ] [ -T_t_e_r_m ] [ -x ] [ -m _m_a_c ] [ -V ] [ -Q ] [ file ... ] DESCRIPTION _R_o_f_f_b_i_b prints out all records in a bibliographic database, in bibliog‐ raphy format rather than as footnotes or endnotes. Generally it is used in conjunction with _s_o_r_t_b_i_b: sortbib database | roffbib _R_o_f_f_b_i_b accepts most of the options understood by _n_r_o_f_f(1), most impor‐ tantly the -T flag to specify terminal type. If abstracts or comments are entered following the %X field key, _r_o_f_f_‐ _b_i_b will format them into paragraphs for an annotated bibliography. Several %X fields may be given if several annotation paragraphs are desired. The -x flag will suppress the printing of these abstracts. A user-defined set of macros may be specified after the -m option. There should be a space between the -m and the macro filename. This set of macros will replace the ones defined in /usr/lib/tmac/tmac.bib. The -V flag will send output to the Versatec; the -Q flag will queue output for the phototypesetter. Four command-line registers control formatting style of the bibliogra‐ phy, much like the number registers of _m_s(7). The command-line argu‐ ment -rN1 will number the references starting at one (1). The flag -rV2 will double space the bibliography, while -rV1 will double space references but single space annotation paragraphs. The line length can be changed from the default 6.5 inches to 6 inches with the -rL6i argu‐ ment, and the page offset can be set from the default of 0 to one inch by specifying -rO1i (capital O, not zero). Note: with the -V and -Q flags the default page offset is already one inch.
