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.
