10/17/81 l0h.compin, l0new.compin Syntax: .ifi l0h "title-of-section" OR .ifi l0new "title-of-section" OR, for numbered sections (see "Section numbering" below) .srv section "section-no" {.srv style "roman"} .ifi l0h "title-of-section" OR .ifi l0new "title-of-section" Function: This macro begins a new major section of a document. It should be inserted at the beginning of each section. Arguments: 'title-of-section' is the title of the section as it is to appear in the Table of Contents (i.e., first caps, no underlines). It is translated to the proper font for the section heading on the output page. 'section-no' is either a section number (e.g., "2") or an appendix letter (e.g., "A"). This value is used (e.g., SECTION 2 or APPENDIX A) in a title line preceding the section title line and is used in page numbers, figure numbers, and table numbers (e.g., the first page, figure, or table number when section-no "2" is 2-1; when section-no is "A", A-1). Macro actions: 1) initializes a new section of a manual 2) generates a one or two line section heading on a new page (see "Section numbering" below) 3) sets the page counter to 1 4) adds the section title to the Table of Contents 5) in addition to the above, 'l0new' generates Table of Contents change-bars for all level header entries in a newly added section. The next use of any of the 'l0' macros other than 'l0new' cancels these change-bars. Section numbering: If you use numbered sections (i.e., use .srv section "section-no") the macros automatically use Arabic numbers in the section heading and as part of the page numbers, figure numbers, and table numbers (e.g., 2-1). You can get Roman numerals in the section heading (e.g., SECTION II preceding the section title line) by using the following line immediately BEFORE the l0h line .srv style "roman" The section-no portion of the page number, figure number, and table number will still be Arabic. Examples: The first section of the MPM Commands might begin with .ifi init_mpm "AG92" .srv section "1" .ifi l0h "Multics Command Environment" which yields (in typed output) SECTION 1 MULTICS COMMAND ENVIRONMENT A section of a manual that does not use section numbers might begin with .ifi init "My Manual" .ifi l0h "Manual of Instructions" which yields (in typed out) MANUAL OF INSTRUCTIONS An appendix of a manual might begin with .ifi init "My Manual" .srv section "A" .ifi l0h "Summary of Operation Properties" which yields (in typed output) APPENDIX A SUMMARY OF OPERATION PROPERTIES Notes: 1) The section title is translated to the proper font when used in the section heading. Use the l0exact and l0toc macros for section titles containing literal strings that should not be translated to the Level 0 font. (END) ----------------------------------------------------------- Historical Background This edition of the Multics software materials and documentation is provided and donated to Massachusetts Institute of Technology by Group BULL including BULL HN Information Systems Inc. as a contribution to computer science knowledge. This donation is made also to give evidence of the common contributions of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bell Laboratories, General Electric, Honeywell Information Systems Inc., Honeywell BULL Inc., Groupe BULL and BULL HN Information Systems Inc. to the development of this operating system. Multics development was initiated by Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project MAC (1963-1970), renamed the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence in the mid 1970s, under the leadership of Professor Fernando Jose Corbato. Users consider that Multics provided the best software architecture for managing computer hardware properly and for executing programs. Many subsequent operating systems incorporated Multics principles. Multics was distributed in 1975 to 2000 by Group Bull in Europe , and in the U.S. by Bull HN Information Systems Inc., as successor in interest by change in name only to Honeywell Bull Inc. and Honeywell Information Systems Inc. . ----------------------------------------------------------- Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute these programs and their documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted,provided that the below copyright notice and historical background appear in all copies and that both the copyright notice and historical background and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the names of MIT, HIS, BULL or BULL HN not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of the programs without specific prior written permission.
