hi groff gurus!
i just started with groff and already stumbles over a problem:
how do i properly use the refer facility?
i have a file "biblio.ref" as the database
with entries like
%A humpty dumpty
...
in my text file "text.ms" in the same directory i have
.
.R1
database biblio.ref
.R2
...
.[
[ ] humpty dumpty
.]
but then
groff -R -ms text.ms > text.ps
generates an error message
"missing .R2 line"
"unknown command .R2"
and than all the following commands aren't recognized any more.
what am i doing wrong, and how is this done properly?
i read the man pages of
groff and refer
and the text "groff and friends howto" by dan a. provins.
thank you all
