+.Ss \&Vt
+A variable type.
+This is also used for indicating global variables in the

+Note that it accepts
+.Sx Block partial-implicit
+syntax when invoked as the first macro on an input line in the

+syntax.
+In the former case, this macro starts a new output line,
+and a blank line is inserted in front if there is a preceding

+.Pp
+Note that this should not be confused with

+This macro should not be used; it is implemented for compatibility with

+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Pp
+.D1 Pf \. Sx \&sp Op Ar height
+.Pp
+The
+.Ar height
+argument is a scaling width as described in
+.Xr roff 7 .
+If unspecified,
+.Sx \&sp
+asserts a single vertical space.
+.Sh MACRO SYNTAX
+The syntax of a macro depends on its classification.
+In this section,
+.Sq \-arg
+refers to macro arguments, which may be followed by zero or more
+.Sq parm
+parameters;
+.Sq \&Yo
+opens the scope of a macro; and if specified,
+.Sq \&Yc
+closes it out.
+.Pp
+The
+.Em Callable
+column indicates that the macro may also be called by passing its name
+as an argument to another macro.
+For example,
+.Sq \&.Op \&Fl O \&Ar file
+produces
+.Sq Op Fl O Ar file .
+To prevent a macro call and render the macro name literally,
+escape it by prepending a zero-width space,
+.Sq \e& .
+For example,
+.Sq \&Op \e&Fl O
+produces
+.Sq Op \&Fl O .
+If a macro is not callable but its name appears as an argument
+to another macro, it is interpreted as opaque text.
+For example,
+.Sq \&.Fl \&Sh
+produces
+.Sq Fl \&Sh .
+.Pp
+The
+.Em Parsed
+column indicates whether the macro may call other macros by receiving
+their names as arguments.
+If a macro is not parsed but the name of another macro appears
+as an argument, it is interpreted as opaque text.
+.Pp
+The
+.Em Scope
+column, if applicable, describes closure rules.
+.Ss Block full-explicit
+Multi-line scope closed by an explicit closing macro.
+All macros contains bodies; only
+.Sx \&Bf
+and
+.Pq optionally
+.Sx \&Bl
+contain a head.
