     EQNCHAR(CT)              XENIX System V               EQNCHAR(CT)



     Name
          eqnchar - Contains special character definitions for eqn and
          neqn.

     Syntax
          eqn /usr/pub/eqnchar [ file ... ] | troff [ option ... ]

          neqn /usr/pub/eqnchar [ file ... ] | nroff [ option ... ]

          eqn -Taps /usr/pub/apseqnchar [ file ... ] | troff [ option
          ... ]

          eqn -Tcat /usr/pub/cateqnchar [ file ... ] | otroff [ option
          ... ]

     Description
          eqnchar contains troff(CT) and nroff(CT) character
          definitions for constructing characters that are not
          available on a phototypesetter.  These definitions are
          primarily intended for use with eqn(C) and neqn; eqnchar
          contains definitions for the following characters:

         ciplus     ciplus     ||         ||         square    square

         citimes    citimes    langle     langle     circle    circle

          apseqnchar is a version of eqnchar tailored for the
          Autologic APS-5 phototypesetter.  This will not look optimal
          on other phototypesetters.  Similarly, cateqnchar is the old
          eqnchar tailored for the Wang CAT and the old otroff.  Until
          a phototypesetter-independent version of eqnchar is
          available, eqnchar should be a link to the default version
          on each system.  The standard default is apseqnchar.

     Files
          /usr/pub/eqnchar
          /usr/pub/apseqnchar
          /usr/pub/cateqnchar
