+.Sh REFERENCE
+This section is a canonical reference of all macros, arranged
+alphabetically.
+For the scoping of individual macros, see
+.Sx MACRO SYNTAX .
+.Ss \&%A
+Author name of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block. Multiple authors should each be accorded their own
+.Sx \%%A
+line. Author names should be ordered with full or abbreviated
+forename(s) first, then full surname.
+.Ss \&%B
+Book title of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block. This macro may also be used in a non-bibliographic context when
+referring to book titles.
+.Ss \&%C
+Publication city or location of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Pp
+.Em Remarks :
+this macro is not implemented in
+.Xr groff 1 .
+.Ss \&%D
+Publication date of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block. This should follow the reduced or canonical form syntax
+described in
+.Sx Dates .
+.Ss \&%I
+Publisher or issuer name of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&%J
+Journal name of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&%N
+Issue number (usually for journals) of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&%O
+Optional information of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&%P
+Book or journal page number of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&%Q
+Institutional author (school, government, etc.) of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block. Multiple institutional authors should each be accorded their own
+.Sx \&%Q
+line.
+.Ss \&%R
+Technical report name of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&%T
+Article title of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block. This macro may also be used in a non-bibliographical context
+when referring to article titles.
+.Ss \&%U
+URI of reference document.
+.Ss \&%V
+Volume number of an
+.Sx \&Rs
+block.
+.Ss \&Ac
+Closes an
+.Sx \&Ao
+block. Does not have any tail arguments.
+.Ss \&Ad
+Address construct: usually in the context of an computational address in
+memory, not a physical (post) address.
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.D1 \&.Ad [0,$]
+.D1 \&.Ad 0x00000000
+.Ss \&An
+Author name.
+This macro may alternatively accepts the following arguments, although
+these may not be specified along with a parameter:
+.Bl -tag -width 12n -offset indent
+.It Fl split
+Renders a line break before each author listing.
+.It Fl nosplit
+The opposite of
+.Fl split .
+.El
+.Pp
+In the AUTHORS section, the default is not to split the first author
+listing, but all subsequent author listings, whether or not they're
+interspersed by other macros or text, are split.
+Thus, specifying
+.Fl split
+will cause the first listing also to be split.
+If not in the AUTHORS section, the default is not to split.
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.D1 \&.An -nosplit
+.D1 \&.An J. D. Ullman .
+.Pp
+.Em Remarks :
+the effects of
+.Fl split
+or
+.Fl nosplit
+are re-set when entering the AUTHORS section, so if one specifies
+.Sx \&An Fl nosplit
+in the general document body, it must be re-specified in the AUTHORS
+section.
+.Ss \&Ao
+Begins a block enclosed by angled brackets.
+Does not have any head arguments.
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.D1 \&.Fl -key= \&Ns \&Ao \&Ar val \&Ac
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&Aq .
+.Ss \&Ap
+Inserts an apostrophe without any surrounding white-space.
+This is generally used as a grammatical device when referring to the verb
+form of a function:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+\&.Fn execve Ap d
+.Ed
+.Ss \&Aq
+Encloses its arguments in angled brackets.
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.D1 \&.Fl -key= \&Ns \&Aq \&Ar val
+.Pp
+.Em Remarks :
+this macro is often abused for rendering URIs, which should instead use
+.Sx \&Lk
+or
+.Sx \&Mt ,
+or to note pre-processor
+.Dq Li #include
+statements, which should use
+.Sx \&In .
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&Ao .
+.Ss \&Ar
+Command arguments.
+If an argument is not provided, the string
+.Dq file ...
+is used as a default.
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.D1 \&.Fl o \&Ns \&Ar file1
+.D1 \&.Ar
+.D1 \&.Ar arg1 , arg2 .
+.Ss \&At
+Formats an AT&T version.
+Accepts at most one parameter:
+.Bl -tag -width 12n -offset indent
+.It Cm v[1-7] | 32v
+A version of
+.At .
+.It Cm V[.[1-4]]?
+A system version of
+.At .
+.El
+.Pp
+Note that these parameters do not begin with a hyphen.
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.D1 \&.At
+.D1 \&.At V.1
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&Bsx ,
+.Sx \&Bx ,
+.Sx \&Dx ,
+.Sx \&Fx ,
+.Sx \&Nx ,
+.Sx \&Ox ,
+and
+.Sx \&Ux .
+.Ss \&Bc
+Closes a
+.Sx \&Bo
+block. Does not have any tail arguments.
+.Ss \&Bd
+Begins a display block.
+Its syntax is as follows:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Pf \. Sx \&Bd
+.Fl type
+.Op Fl offset Ar width
+.Op Fl compact
+.Ed
+.Pp
+A display is collection of macros or text which may be collectively
+offset or justified in a manner different from that
+of the enclosing context.
+By default, the block is preceded by a vertical space.
+.Pp
+Each display is associated with a type, which must be one of the
+following arguments:
+.Bl -tag -width 12n -offset indent
+.It Fl ragged
+Only left-justify the block.
+.It Fl unfilled
+Do not justify the block at all.
+.It Fl filled
+Left- and right-justify the block.
+.It Fl literal
+Alias for
+.Fl unfilled .
+.It Fl centered
+Centre-justify each line.
+.El
+.Pp
+The type must be provided first.
+Secondary arguments are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width 12n -offset indent
+.It Fl offset Ar val
+Offset by the value of
+.Ar val ,
+which is interpreted as one of the following, specified in order:
+.Bl -item
+.It
+As one of the pre-defined strings
+.Ar indent ,
+the width of standard indentation;
+.Ar indent-two ,
+twice
+.Ar indent ;
+.Ar left ,
+which has no effect;
+.Ar right ,
+which justifies to the right margin; and
+.Ar center ,
+which aligns around an imagined centre axis.
+.It
+As a precalculated width for a named macro.
+The most popular is the imaginary macro
+.Ar \&Ds ,
+which resolves to
+.Ar 6n .
+.It
+As a scaling unit following the syntax described in
+.Sx Scaling Widths .
+.It
+As the calculated string length of the opaque string.
+.El
+.Pp
+If not provided an argument, it will be ignored.
+.It Fl compact
+Do not assert a vertical space before the block.
+.El
+.Pp
+Examples:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+\&.Bd \-unfilled \-offset two-indent \-compact
+ Hello world.
+\&.Ed
+.Ed
+.Pp
+See also
+.Sx \&D1
+and

+.Ss \&Bf
+Change the font mode for a scoped block of text.
+Its syntax is as follows:
