# Formatting Information
|
|
|
|
So you want to contribute to Grenzland? Great! Just type away!
|
|
While you can send me your text in any kind of format, I prefer
|
|
plain text. Just save your file as `*.txt` with whatever program
|
|
you use for writing.
|
|
|
|
If you want to help out actually formatting the article you can
|
|
add some simple markup to your plain text. The system I use
|
|
is called "roff", a *very old school* system indeed. And for
|
|
those who know roff a bit, or groff, as it's modern incarnation
|
|
is called, *Grenzland* uses the *ms* macro package and adds some
|
|
custom macros for convenience. But this was already too much tech
|
|
talk so let's just see what you can do:
|
|
|
|
## Title
|
|
|
|
Markup the title of your article like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.H1
|
|
Your Title goes here!
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
So that's a dot, capital H and numeral 1 on a single line. It
|
|
basically sais: head up, next line will be our title.
|
|
|
|
## Paragraphs
|
|
|
|
Let's now make a paragraph with proper indentation and a little
|
|
spacing:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.PP
|
|
Text of your paragraph. If you want to add a new paragraph, just
|
|
insert another
|
|
.PP
|
|
liks this.
|
|
```
|
