+and
+.Sx \&Ux .
+.Ss \&Bc
+Close a
+.Sx \&Bo
+block.
+Does not have any tail arguments.
+.Ss \&Bd
+Begin a display block.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Pf \. Sx \&Bd
+.Fl Ns Ar type
+.Op Fl offset Ar width
+.Op Fl compact
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Display blocks are used to select a different indentation and
+justification than the one used by the surrounding text.
+They may contain both macro lines and text lines.
+By default, a display block is preceded by a vertical space.
+.Pp
+The
+.Ar type
+must be one of the following:
+.Bl -tag -width 13n -offset indent
+.It Fl centered
+Centre-justify each line.
+Using this display type is not recommended; many
+.Nm
+implementations render it poorly.
+.It Fl filled
+Left- and right-justify the block.
+.It Fl literal
+Do not justify the block at all.
+Preserve white space as it appears in the input.
+.It Fl ragged
+Only left-justify the block.
+.It Fl unfilled
+An alias for
+.Fl literal .
+.El
+.Pp
+The
+.Ar type
+must be provided first.
+Additional arguments may follow:
+.Bl -tag -width 13n -offset indent
+.It Fl offset Ar width
+Indent the display by the
+.Ar width ,
+which may be one of the following:
+.Bl -item
+.It
+One of the pre-defined strings
+.Cm indent ,
+the width of standard indentation;
+.Cm indent-two ,
+twice
+.Cm indent ;
+.Cm left ,
+which has no effect;
+.Cm right ,
+which justifies to the right margin; or
+.Cm center ,
+which aligns around an imagined centre axis.
+.It
+A macro invocation, which selects a predefined width
+associated with that macro.
+The most popular is the imaginary macro
+.Ar \&Ds ,
+which resolves to
+.Sy 6n .
+.It
+A width using the syntax described in
+.Sx Scaling Widths .
+.It
+An arbitrary string, which indents by the length of this string.
+.El
+.Pp
+When the argument is missing,
+.Fl offset
+is ignored.
+.It Fl compact
+Do not assert vertical space before the display.
+.El
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+\&.Bd \-literal \-offset indent \-compact
+ Hello world.
+\&.Ed
+.Ed
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&D1
+and
+.Sx \&Dl .
+.Ss \&Bf
+Change the font mode for a scoped block of text.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Pf \. Sx \&Bf
+.Oo
+.Fl emphasis | literal | symbolic |
+.Cm \&Em | \&Li | \&Sy
+.Oc
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl emphasis
+and
+.Cm \&Em
+argument are equivalent, as are
+.Fl symbolic
+and
+.Cm \&Sy ,
+and
+.Fl literal
+and
+.Cm \&Li .
+Without an argument, this macro does nothing.
+The font mode continues until broken by a new font mode in a nested
+scope or
+.Sx \&Ef
+is encountered.
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&Li ,
+.Sx \&Ef ,
+.Sx \&Em ,
+and
+.Sx \&Sy .
+.Ss \&Bk
+For each macro, keep its output together on the same output line,
+until the end of the macro or the end of the input line is reached,
+whichever comes first.
+Line breaks in text lines are unaffected.
+The syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Sx \&Bk Fl words
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl words
+argument is required; additional arguments are ignored.
+.Pp
+The following example will not break within each
+.Sx \&Op
+macro line:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+\&.Bk \-words
+\&.Op Fl f Ar flags
+\&.Op Fl o Ar output
+\&.Ek
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Be careful in using over-long lines within a keep block!
+Doing so will clobber the right margin.
+.Ss \&Bl
+Begin a list.
+Lists consist of items specified using the
+.Sx \&It
+macro, containing a head or a body or both.
+The list syntax is as follows:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Pf \. Sx \&Bl
+.Fl Ns Ar type
+.Op Fl width Ar val
+.Op Fl offset Ar val
+.Op Fl compact
+.Op HEAD ...
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The list
+.Ar type
+is mandatory and must be specified first.
+The
+.Fl width
+and
+.Fl offset
+arguments accept
+.Sx Scaling Widths
+or use the length of the given string.
+The
+.Fl offset
+is a global indentation for the whole list, affecting both item heads
+and bodies.
+For those list types supporting it, the
+.Fl width
+argument requests an additional indentation of item bodies,
+to be added to the
+.Fl offset .
+Unless the
+.Fl compact
+argument is specified, list entries are separated by vertical space.
+.Pp
+A list must specify one of the following list types:
+.Bl -tag -width 12n -offset indent
+.It Fl bullet
+No item heads can be specified, but a bullet will be printed at the head
+of each item.
+Item bodies start on the same output line as the bullet
+and are indented according to the
+.Fl width
+argument.
+.It Fl column
+A columnated list.
+The
+.Fl width
+argument has no effect; instead, each argument specifies the width
+of one column, using either the
+.Sx Scaling Widths
+syntax or the string length of the argument.
+If the first line of the body of a
+.Fl column
+list is not an
+.Sx \&It
+macro line,
+.Sx \&It
+contexts spanning one input line each are implied until an
+.Sx \&It
+macro line is encountered, at which point items start being interpreted as
+described in the
+.Sx \&It
+documentation.
+.It Fl dash
+Like
+.Fl bullet ,
+except that dashes are used in place of bullets.
+.It Fl diag
+Like
+.Fl inset ,
+except that item heads are not parsed for macro invocations.
+.\" but with additional formatting to the head.
+.It Fl enum
+A numbered list.
+Formatted like
+.Fl bullet ,
+except that cardinal numbers are used in place of bullets,
+starting at 1.
+.It Fl hang
+Like
+.Fl tag ,
+except that the first lines of item bodies are not indented, but follow
+the item heads like in
+.Fl inset
+lists.
+.It Fl hyphen
+Synonym for
+.Fl dash .
+.It Fl inset
+Item bodies follow items heads on the same line, using normal inter-word
+spacing.
+Bodies are not indented, and the
+.Fl width
+argument is ignored.
+.It Fl item
+No item heads can be specified, and none are printed.
+Bodies are not indented, and the
+.Fl width
+argument is ignored.
+.It Fl ohang
+Item bodies start on the line following item heads and are not indented.
+The
+.Fl width
+argument is ignored.
+.It Fl tag
+Item bodies are indented according to the
+.Fl width
+argument.
+When an item head fits inside the indentation, the item body follows
+this head on the same output line.
+Otherwise, the body starts on the output line following the head.

+.Pp
+Examples:

+.Pp
+Note that using
+.Sx \&Bd Fl literal

+.Ss \&It
+A list item.
+The syntax of this macro depends on the list type.
+.Pp
+Lists

+have the following syntax:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Sx \&It Ar args

+.Pp
+with subsequent lines interpreted within the scope of the

+.Sx \&It .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl tag
+list has the following syntax:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Sx \&It Op Cm args
+.Pp
+Subsequent lines are interpreted as with
+.Fl bullet
+and family.
+The line arguments correspond to the list's left-hand side; body
+arguments correspond to the list's contents.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl column
+list is the most complicated.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Sx \&It Op Cm args
+.Pp
+The
+.Cm args
+are phrases, a mix of macros and text corresponding to a line column,
+delimited by tabs or the special
+.Sq \&Ta
+pseudo-macro.
+Lines subsequent the
+.Sx \&It
+are interpreted within the scope of the last phrase.
+Calling the pseudo-macro
+.Sq \&Ta
+will open a new phrase scope (this must occur on a macro line to be
+interpreted as a macro).
+Note that the tab phrase delimiter may only be used within the
+.Sx \&It
+line itself.
+Subsequent this, only the
+.Sq \&Ta
+pseudo-macro may be used to delimit phrases.
+Furthermore, note that quoted sections propagate over tab-delimited
+phrases on an
+.Sx \&It ,
+for example,
+.Pp
+.Dl .It \(dqcol1 ; <TAB> col2 ;\(dq \&;
+.Pp
+will preserve the semicolon whitespace except for the last.
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&Bl .
+.Ss \&Lb
+Specify a library.
+The syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Sx \&Lb Ar library
+.Pp
+The
+.Ar library
+parameter may be a system library, such as
+.Ar libz
+or
+.Ar libpam ,
+in which case a small library description is printed next to the linker
+invocation; or a custom library, in which case the library name is
+printed in quotes.
+This is most commonly used in the

+section as described in
+.Sx MANUAL STRUCTURE .
+.Pp
+Examples:

+section subsequent the
+.Sx \&Nm
+macro.
+.Pp
+Examples:

+.Dl \&.Sx \&Nd format and display UNIX manuals
+.Pp
+The
+.Sx \&Nd
+macro technically accepts child macros and terminates with a subsequent
+.Sx \&Sh
+invocation.
+Do not assume this behaviour: some
+.Xr whatis 1
+database generators are not smart enough to parse more than the line
+arguments and will display macros verbatim.
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&Nm .
+.Ss \&Nm
+The name of the manual page, or \(em in particular in section 1, 6,
+and 8 pages \(em of an additional command or feature documented in

+macro expects a single argument, the name of the manual page.
+Usually, the first invocation happens in the
+.Em NAME
+section of the page.
+The specified name will be remembered and used whenever the macro is
+called again without arguments later in the page.
+The
+.Sx \&Nm
+macro uses
+.Sx Block full-implicit

+section; otherwise, it uses ordinary
+.Sx In-line
+semantics.
