Syntax:  .ifi par_hanging {N}
    OR   .ifi pNh {M}
 where   N may have values 1 through 9
         M is the number of indention levels by which the first line
         is to hang and may also have the values 1 through 9.  If M is
         not given, a value of 1 is used.

Function:
This macro provides an alternate paragraph break as appropriate for the
output device with an undented first line identifier and optionally
sets the indention for the paragraph to the Nth level (See Notes.)


Macro action:
Sets paragraph separation space as defined for the device.
If N is given, sets paragraph indention to the Nth level; otherwise,
the current indention level is not changed.
Sets the first text undented to the Mth prior (N-M) indention level.
Sets the remaining text at the indention level STARTING WITH THE FIRST
LINE.

Notes:  Ten levels of indention are defined in mutiples of a standard
amount for the output device, 4 spaces for typewriters and 2 EMs for
phototypesetters.  Thus, level 0 is flush left for all devices while
level 2 in indented 8 spaces for typewriters and 4 EMs for
phototypsetters.

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. .
