+.Ss \&ps
+Change point size.
+This line-scoped request is intended to take one numerical argument.
+Currently, it is ignored including its arguments,
+and the number of arguments is not checked.
+.Ss \&rm
+Remove a request, macro or string.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Cm \&rm Ar name
+.Ss \&rr
+Remove a register.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Cm \&rr Ar name
+.Ss \&so
+Include a source file.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Cm \&so Ar file
+.Pp
+The
+.Ar file
+will be read and its contents processed as input in place of the
+.Sq \&.so
+request line.
+To avoid inadvertent inclusion of unrelated files,
+.Xr mandoc 1
+only accepts relative paths not containing the strings
+.Qq ../
+and
+.Qq /.. .
+.Pp
+This request requires
+.Xr man 1
+to change to the right directory before calling
+.Xr mandoc 1 ,
+per convention to the root of the manual tree.
+Typical usage looks like:
+.Pp
+.Dl \&.so man3/Xcursor.3
+.Pp
+As the whole concept is rather fragile, the use of
+.Sx \&so
+is discouraged.
+Use
+.Xr ln 1
+instead.
+.Ss \&ta
+Set tab stops.
+This line-scoped request can take an arbitrary number of arguments.
+Currently, it is ignored including its arguments.
+.Ss \&tr
+Output character translation.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Cm \&tr Ar [ab]+
+.Pp
+Pairs of
+.Ar ab
+characters are replaced
+.Ar ( a
+for
+.Ar b ) .
+Replacement (or origin) characters may also be character escapes; thus,
+.Pp
+.Dl tr \e(xx\e(yy
+.Pp
+replaces all invocations of \e(xx with \e(yy.
+.Ss \&T&
+Re-start a table layout, retaining the options of the prior table
+invocation.
+See
+.Sx \&TS .
+.Ss \&TE
+End a table context.
+See
+.Sx \&TS .
+.Ss \&TS
+Begin a table, which formats input in aligned rows and columns.
+See
+.Xr tbl 7
+for a description of the tbl language.
+.Ss Numerical expressions
+The
+.Sx \&nr ,
+.Sx \&if ,
+and
+.Sx \&ie
+requests accept integer numerical expressions as arguments.
+These are always evaluated using the C
+.Vt int
+type; integer overflow works the same way as in the C language.
+Numbers consist of an arbitrary number of digits
+.Sq 0
+to
+.Sq 9
+prefixed by an optional sign
+.Sq +
+or
+.Sq - .
+.Pp
+The following binary operators are implemented.
+Unless otherwise stated, they behave as in the C language:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width 2n -compact
+.It Ic +
+addition
+.It Ic -
+subtraction
+.It Ic *
+multiplication
+.It Ic /
+division
+.It Ic %
+remainder of division
+.It Ic <
+less than
+.It Ic >
+greater than
+.It Ic ==
+equal to
+.It Ic =
+equal to, same effect as
+.Ic ==
+(this differs from C)
+.It Ic <=
+less than or equal to
+.It Ic >=
+greater than or equal to
+.It Ic <>
+not equal to (corresponds to C
+.Ic != ;
+this one is of limited portability, it is supported by Heirloom roff,
+but not by groff)
+.It Ic &

+.Ic && )
+.It Ic \&:
+logical or (corresponds to C
+.Ic \&|| )
+.It Ic <?
+minimum (not available in C)
+.It Ic >?
+maximum (not available in C)
+.El
+.Pp
+There is no concept of precendence; evaluation proceeds from left to right,
+except when subexpressions are enclosed in parantheses.
+Inside parentheses, whitespace is ignored.
+.Sh ESCAPE SEQUENCE REFERENCE
+The
+.Xr mandoc 1
+.Nm
+parser recognises the following escape sequences.
+Note that the
+.Nm
+language defines more escape sequences not implemented in
+.Xr mandoc 1 .
+In
+.Xr mdoc 7
+and
+.Xr man 7
+documents, using escape sequences is discouraged except for those
+described in the
+.Sx LANGUAGE SYNTAX
+section above.
+.Pp
+A backslash followed by any character not listed here
+simply prints that character itself.
+.Ss \e<newline>
+A backslash at the end of an input line can be used to continue the
+logical input line on the next physical input line, joining the text
+on both lines together as if it were on a single input line.
+.Ss \e<space>
+The escape sequence backslash-space
+.Pq Sq \e\ \&
