Description
       The  GNU implementation of eqn is part of the groff(7) document format‐
       ting system.  eqn is a troff(1) preprocessor  that  translates  expres‐
       sions in its own language, embedded in roff(7) input files, into mathe‐
       matical  notation  typeset by troff(1).  It copies each file's contents
       to the standard output stream, translating each equation between  lines
       starting  with  .EQ  and .EN, or within a pair of user-specified delim‐
       iters.  Normally, eqn is not executed directly by the user, but invoked
       by specifying the -e option to groff(1).  While GNU eqn's input  syntax
       is  highly  compatible with AT&T eqn, the output eqn produces cannot be
       processed by AT&T troff; GNU troff (or a  troff  implementing  relevant
       GNU  extensions)  must  be  used.  If no file operands are given on the
       command line, or if file is “-”, eqn reads the standard input stream.

       Unless the -R option is used, eqn searches for the file  eqnrc  in  the
       directories    given    with    the    -M   option   first,   then   in
       /usr/lib/groff/site-tmac, /usr/share/groff/site-tmac,  and  finally  in
       the  standard  macro directory /usr/share/groff/1.23.0/tmac.  If it ex‐
       ists and is readable, eqn processes it before any input files.

       This man page primarily discusses the differences between GNU  eqn  and
       AT&T  eqn.   Most of the new features of the GNU eqn input language are
       based on TeX.  There are some references to the differences between TeX
       and GNU eqn below; these may safely be ignored if you do not know TeX.

       Three points are worth special note.

       • GNU eqn emits  Presentation  MathML  output  when  invoked  with  the
         “-T MathML” option.

       • GNU eqn does not support terminal devices well, though it may suffice
         for simple inputs.

       • GNU  eqn  sets the input token “...” as an ellipsis on the text base‐
         line, not the three centered dots of AT&T eqn.  Set  an  ellipsis  on
         the math axis with the GNU extension macro cdots.

   Anatomy of an equation
       eqn  input  consists of tokens.  Consider a form of Newton's second law
       of motion.  The input

              .EQ
              F =
              m a
              .EN

       becomes F = m a.  Each of F, =, m, and a is a token.  Spaces  and  new‐
       lines  are interchangeable; they separate tokens but do not break lines
       or produce space in the output.

       The following input characters not only  separate  tokens,  but  manage
       their grouping and spacing as well.

       { }    Braces  perform  grouping.  Whereas “e sup a b” expresses “(e to
              the a) times b”, “e sup { a b }” means “e to the (a  times  b)”.
              When  immediately  preceded  by a “left” or “right” primitive, a
              brace loses its special meaning.

       ^ ~    are the half space and full space, respectively.   Use  them  to
              tune the appearance of the output.

       Tab  and  leader  characters  separate  tokens as well as advancing the
       drawing position to the next tab stop, but are seldom used in  eqn  in‐
       put.  When they occur, they must appear at the outermost lexical scope.
       This roughly means that they can't appear within braces that are neces‐
       sary  to  disambiguate  the  input;  eqn will diagnose an error in this
       event.  (See subsection “Macros” below for additional token  separation
       rules.)

       Other tokens are primitives, macros, an argument to either of the fore‐
       going, or components of an equation.

       Primitives are fundamental keywords of the eqn language.  They can con‐
       figure  an  aspect  of  the  preprocessor's  state,  as  when setting a
       “global” font selection or type size (gfont and gsize), or declaring or
       deleting macros (“define” and undef); these are termed commands.  Other
       primitives perform formatting operations on the tokens after  them  (as
       with fat, over, sqrt, or up).

       Equation  components include mathematical variables, constants, numeric
       literals, and operators.  eqn remaps some input character sequences  to
       groff  special character escape sequences for economy in equation entry
       and to  ensure  that  glyphs  from  an  unstyled  font  are  used;  see
       groff_char(7).

              tab(@);  Lf(CR)  Lf(CR)  Lw(1i) Lf(CR) Lf(CR).  +@\[pl]@@'@\[fm]
              -@\[mi]@@<=@\[<=] =@\[eq]@@>=@\[>=]

       Macros permit primitives, components, and other macros to be  collected
       and  referred  to by a single token.  Predefined macros make convenient
       the preparation of eqn input in a form resembling  its  spoken  expres‐
       sion; for example, consider cos, hat, inf, and lim.

   Spacing and typeface
       GNU  eqn  imputes types to the components of an equation, adjusting the
       spacing between them accordingly.  Recognized  types  are  as  follows;
       most  affect  spacing  only, whereas the “letter” subtype of “ordinary”
       also assigns a style.

         Lf(CR) Lx Af(CR) Lx Af(CR) Lx Lf(CR) Lx.  ordinary  T{ character such
         as “1”, “a”, or “!” T} letter    character to be  italicized  by  de‐
         fault  digit     n/a  operator  T{  large operator such as “Σ” T} bi‐
         nary    binary operator such  as  “+”  relation  relational  operator
         such  as  “=” opening   opening bracket such as “(” closing   closing
         bracket such as “)” punctuation    punctuation character such as  “,”
         inner     sub-formula  contained  within brackets suppress  component
         to which automatic spacing is not applied

       Two primitives apply types to equation components.

       type t e
              Apply type t to expression e.

       chartype t text
              Assign each character in (unquoted) text type t, persistently.

       eqn sets up spacings and styles as if by the following commands.

              tab(@); Lf(CR)1 Lf(CR).  chartype "letter"@abcdefghiklmnopqrstu‐
              vwxyz chartype "letter"@ABCDEFGHIKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ chartype "let‐
              ter"@\[*a]\[*b]\[*g]\[*d]\[*e]\[*z]        chartype        "let‐
              ter"@\[*y]\[*h]\[*i]\[*k]\[*l]\[*m]        chartype        "let‐
              ter"@\[*n]\[*c]\[*o]\[*p]\[*r]\[*s]        chartype        "let‐
              ter"@\[*t]\[*u]\[*f]\[*x]\[*q]\[*w]         chartype        "bi‐
              nary"@*\[pl]\[mi] chartype "relation"@<>\[eq]\[<=]\[>=] chartype
              "opening"@{([ chartype "closing"@})] chartype "punctuation"@,;:.
              chartype "suppress"@^~

       eqn assigns all other ordinary and special roff  characters,  including
       numerals  0–9, the “ordinary” type.  (The “digit” type is not used, but
       is available for customization.)  In keeping with  common  practice  in
       mathematical  typesetting,  lowercase, but not uppercase, Greek letters
       are assigned the “letter” type to style them in  italics.   The  macros
       for producing ellipses, “...”, cdots, and ldots, use the “inner” type.

   Primitives
       eqn  supports  without  alteration the AT&T eqn primitives above, back,
       bar, bold, define, down, fat, font, from, fwd,  gfont,  gsize,  italic,
       left,  lineup,  mark,  matrix, ndefine, over, right, roman, size, sqrt,
       sub, sup, tdefine, to, under, and up.

   New primitives
       The GNU extension primitives “type” and chartype are discussed in  sub‐
       section  “Spacing  and typeface” above; “set” in subsection “Customiza‐
       tion” below; and grfont and gbfont in subsection “Fonts” below.  In the
       following synopses, X can be any character not appearing in the parame‐
       ter thus bracketed.

       e1 accent e2
              Set e2 as an accent over e1.  e2 is assumed to be at the  appro‐
              priate  height  for a lowercase letter without an ascender;  eqn
              vertically shifts it depending on e1's height.  For example, hat
              is defined as follows.

                     accent { "^" }

              dotdot, dot, tilde, vec, and dyad are  also  defined  using  the
              accent primitive.

       big e  Enlarge  the  expression  e; semantics like those of CSS “large”
              are intended.  In troff output, the type size is increased by  5
              scaled points.  MathML output emits the following.

                     <mstyle mathsize='big'>

       copy file
       include file
              Interpolate  the contents of file, omitting lines beginning with
              .EQ or .EN.  If a relative path name, file is sought relative to
              the current working directory.

       ifdef name X anything X
              If name is defined as a primitive or macro, interpret anything.

       nosplit text
              As "text", but since text is not quoted it is subject  to  macro
              expansion; it is not split up and the spacing between characters
              not adjusted per subsection “Spacing and typeface” above.

       e opprime
              As  prime, but set the prime symbol as an operator on e.  In the
              input “A opprime sub 1”, the “1” is tucked under the prime as  a
              subscript  to  the “A” (as is conventional in mathematical type‐
              setting), whereas when prime is used, the “1” is a subscript  to
              the  prime  character.  The precedence of opprime is the same as
              that of bar and “under”, and higher than that  of  other  primi‐
              tives  except  accent  and uaccent.  In unquoted text, a neutral
              apostrophe (') that is not the first character on the input line
              is treated like opprime.

       sdefine name X anything X
              As “define”, but name is not recognized as  a  macro  if  called
              with arguments.

       e1 smallover e2
              As  over,  but reduces the type size of e1 and e2, and puts less
              vertical space between e1 and e2 and the fraction bar.  The over
              primitive corresponds to the TeX \over  primitive  in  displayed
              equation  styles;  smallover corresponds to \over in non-display
              (“inline”) styles.

       space n
              Set extra vertical spacing around the  equation,  replacing  the
              default  values,  where  n is an integer in hundredths of an em.
              If positive, n increases vertical spacing before  the  equation;
              if negative, it does so after the equation.  This primitive pro‐
              vides  an  interface to groff's \x escape sequence, but with the
              opposite sign convention.  It has no effect if the  equation  is
              part of a pic(1) picture.

       special troff-macro e
              Construct  an  object  by  calling  troff-macro on e.  The troff
              string 0s contains the eqn output for e, and the  registers  0w,
              0h,  0d,  0skern,  and 0skew the width, height, depth, subscript
              kern, and skew of e, respectively.  (The subscript  kern  of  an
              object  indicates  how much a subscript on that object should be
              “tucked in”, or placed to the left relative to a non-subscripted
              glyph of the same size.  The skew of an object is how far to the
              right of the center of the object an accent over  it  should  be
              placed.)   The  macro  must modify 0s so that it outputs the de‐
              sired result, returns the drawing position to the text  baseline
              at  the  beginning  of e, and updates the foregoing registers to
              correspond to the new dimensions of the result.

              Suppose you want a construct that  “cancels”  an  expression  by
              drawing a diagonal line through it.

                     .de Ca
                     .  ds 0s \
                     \Z'\\*(0s'\
                     \v'\\n(0du'\
                     \D'l \\n(0wu -\\n(0hu-\\n(0du'\
                     \v'\\n(0hu'
                     ..
                     .EQ
                     special Ca "x \[mi] 3 \[pl] x" ~ 3
                     .EN

              We use the \[mi] and \[pl] special characters instead of + and -
              because  they  are part of the argument to a troff macro, so eqn
              does not transform them to mathematical glyphs for us.  Here's a
              more complicated construct that draws a box  around  an  expres‐
              sion;  the bottom of the box rests on the text baseline.  We de‐
              fine the eqn macro box to wrap the call of the troff macro Bx.

                     .de Bx
                     .ds 0s \
                     \Z'\\h'1n'\\*[0s]'\
                     \v'\\n(0du+1n'\
                     \D'l \\n(0wu+2n 0'\
                     \D'l 0 -\\n(0hu-\\n(0du-2n'\
                     \D'l -\\n(0wu-2n 0'\
                     \D'l 0 \\n(0hu+\\n(0du+2n'\
                     \h'\\n(0wu+2n'
                     .nr 0w +2n
                     .nr 0d +1n
                     .nr 0h +1n
                     ..
                     .EQ
                     define box ' special Bx $1 '
                     box(foo) ~ "bar"
                     .EN

       split "text"
              As text, but since text is quoted, it is not  subject  to  macro
              expansion; it is split up and the spacing between characters ad‐
              justed per subsection “Spacing and typeface” above.

       e1 uaccent e2
              Set e2 as an accent under e1.  e2 is assumed to be at the appro‐
              priate  height for a letter without a descender;  eqn vertically
              shifts it depending on whether e1 has a  descender.   utilde  is
              predefined using uaccent as a tilde accent below the baseline.

       undef name
              Remove  definition  of  macro or primitive name, making it unde‐
              fined.

       vcenter e
              Vertically center e about the math axis, a horizontal line  upon
              which  fraction  bars  and  characters  such  as “+” and “−” are
              aligned.  MathML already behaves this way, so eqn  ignores  this
              primitive  when  producing that output format.  The built-in sum
              macro is defined as if by the following.

                     define sum ! { type "operator" vcenter size +5 \(*S } !

   Extended primitives
       GNU eqn extends the syntax of some AT&T eqn primitives, introducing one
       deliberate incompatibility.

       delim on
              eqn recognizes an “on” argument  to  the  delim  primitive  spe‐
              cially, restoring any delimiters previously disabled with “delim
              off”.  If delimiters haven't been specified, neither command has
              effect.   Few  eqn  documents are expected to use “o” and “n” as
              left and right delimiters, respectively.  If  yours  does,  con‐
              sider swapping them, or select others.

       col n { ... }
       ccol n { ... }
       lcol n { ... }
       rcol n { ... }
       pile n { ... }
       cpile n { ... }
       lpile n { ... }
       rpile n { ... }
              The  integer value n (in hundredths of an em) increases the ver‐
              tical spacing between rows, using  groff's  \x  escape  sequence
              (the  value  has no effect in MathML mode).  Negative values are
              accepted but have no effect.  If more than one n occurs in a ma‐
              trix or pile, the largest is used.

   Customization
       When eqn generates troff input, the appearance  of  equations  is  con‐
       trolled by a large number of parameters.  They have no effect when gen‐
       erating  MathML,  which delegates typesetting to a MathML rendering en‐
       gine.  Configure these parameters with the set primitive.

       set p n
              assigns parameter p the integer value n;  n  is  interpreted  in
              units of hundredths of an em unless otherwise stated.  For exam‐
              ple,

                     set x_height 45

              says  that  eqn  should  assume  that  the  font's  x-height  is
              0.45 ems.

              Available parameters are  as  follows;  defaults  are  shown  in
              parentheses.   We  intend  these  descriptions  to be expository
              rather than rigorous.

              minimum_size     sets a floor  for  the  type  size  (in  scaled
                               points) at which equations are set (5).

              fat_offset       The  fat  primitive  emboldens  an  equation by
                               overprinting two copies of the  equation  hori‐
                               zontally  offset by this amount (4).  In MathML
                               mode, components to  which  fat_offset  applies
                               instead use the following.
                                      <mstyle mathvariant='double-struck'>

              over_hang        A  fraction  bar is longer by twice this amount
                               than the maximum of the widths of the numerator
                               and denominator; in other words,  it  overhangs
                               the  numerator and denominator by at least this
                               amount (0).

              accent_width     When bar or under is applied to a single  char‐
                               acter,  the  line is this long (31).  Normally,
                               bar or under produces a line  whose  length  is
                               the width of the object to which it applies; in
                               the  case  of a single character, this tends to
                               produce a line that looks too long.

              delimiter_factor Extensible delimiters produced  with  the  left
                               and right primitives have a combined height and
                               depth  of  at  least  this  many thousandths of
                               twice the maximum amount by which the sub-equa‐
                               tion that the delimiters enclose  extends  away
                               from the axis (900).

              delimiter_shortfall
                               Extensible  delimiters  produced  with the left
                               and right primitives have a combined height and
                               depth not less than the difference of twice the
                               maximum amount by which the  sub-equation  that
                               the  delimiters  enclose  extends away from the
                               axis and this amount (50).

              null_delimiter_space
                               This much horizontal space is inserted on  each
                               side of a fraction (12).

              script_space     The width of subscripts and superscripts is in‐
                               creased by this amount (5).

              thin_space       This  amount of space is automatically inserted
                               after punctuation characters.  It also  config‐
                               ures  the  width of the space produced by the ^
                               token (17).

              medium_space     This amount of space is automatically  inserted
                               on either side of binary operators (22).

              thick_space      This  amount of space is automatically inserted
                               on either side of relations.  It  also  config‐
                               ures  the  width of the space produced by the ~
                               token (28).

              x_height         The height of lowercase letters without  ascen‐
                               ders such as “x” (45).

              axis_height      The  height above the baseline of the center of
                               characters such as “+” and “−” (26).  It is im‐
                               portant that this value is correct for the font
                               you are using.

              default_rule_thickness
                               This should be set  to  the  thickness  of  the
                               \[ru] character, or the thickness of horizontal
                               lines produced with the \D escape sequence (4).

              num1             The  over  primitive shifts up the numerator by
                               at least this amount (70).

              num2             The smallover primitive shifts up the numerator
                               by at least this amount (36).

              denom1           The over primitive shifts down the  denominator
                               by at least this amount (70).

              denom2           The smallover primitive shifts down the denomi‐
                               nator by at least this amount (36).

              sup1             Normally  superscripts  are  shifted  up  by at
                               least this amount (42).

              sup2             Superscripts within superscripts or upper  lim‐
                               its  or  numerators  of smallover fractions are
                               shifted up by at least this amount (37).   Con‐
                               ventionally, this is less than sup1.

              sup3             Superscripts   within  denominators  or  square
                               roots or subscripts or lower limits are shifted
                               up by at least this amount  (28).   Convention‐
                               ally, this is less than sup2.

              sub1             Subscripts  are  normally  shifted  down  by at
                               least this amount (20).

              sub2             When there is both a  subscript  and  a  super‐
                               script,  the  subscript  is  shifted down by at
                               least this amount (23).

              sup_drop         The baseline of a superscript is no  more  than
                               this  much below the top of the object on which
                               the superscript is set (38).

              sub_drop         The baseline of a subscript is  at  least  this
                               much  below  the  bottom of the object on which
                               the subscript is set (5).

              big_op_spacing1  The baseline of an upper limit is at least this
                               much above the top of the object on  which  the
                               limit is set (11).

              big_op_spacing2  The  baseline of a lower limit is at least this
                               much below the bottom of the  object  on  which
                               the limit is set (17).

              big_op_spacing3  The  bottom  of an upper limit is at least this
                               much above the top of the object on  which  the
                               limit is set (20).

              big_op_spacing4  The  top of a lower limit is at least this much
                               below the bottom of the  object  on  which  the
                               limit is set (60).

              big_op_spacing5  This much vertical space is added above and be‐
                               low limits (10).

              baseline_sep     The  baselines  of the rows in a pile or matrix
                               are normally this  far  apart  (140).   Usually
                               equal to the sum of num1 and denom1.

              shift_down       The  midpoint  between the top baseline and the
                               bottom baseline in a matrix or pile is  shifted
                               down  by this much from the axis (26).  Usually
                               equal to axis_height.

              column_sep       This much space is added between columns  in  a
                               matrix (100).

              matrix_side_sep  This  much space is added at each side of a ma‐
                               trix (17).

              draw_lines       If non-zero, eqn draws lines using the troff \D
                               escape sequence, rather than the \l escape  se‐
                               quence  and  the  \[ru] special character.  The
                               eqnrc file sets the default: 1 on ps, html, and
                               the X11 devices, otherwise 0.

              body_height      is the presumed height of an equation above the
                               text baseline; eqn adds  any  excess  as  extra
                               pre-vertical  line  spacing with troff's \x es‐
                               cape sequence (85).

              body_depth       is the presumed depth of an equation below  the
                               text  baseline;  eqn  adds  any excess as extra
                               post-vertical line spacing with troff's \x  es‐
                               cape sequence (35).

              nroff            If  non-zero,  then ndefine behaves like define
                               and tdefine is ignored, otherwise  tdefine  be‐
                               haves  like define and ndefine is ignored.  The
                               eqnrc  file  sets  the  default:  1  on  ascii,
                               latin1, utf8, and cp1047 devices, otherwise 0.

   Macros
       In  GNU  eqn,  macros can take arguments.  A word defined by any of the
       define, ndefine, or tdefine primitives followed immediately by  a  left
       parenthesis is treated as a parameterized macro call: subsequent tokens
       up to a matching right parenthesis are treated as comma-separated argu‐
       ments.   In this context only, commas and parentheses also serve as to‐
       ken separators.  A macro argument is not terminated by a  comma  inside
       parentheses  nested  within  it.  In a macro definition, $n, where n is
       between 1 and 9 inclusive, is replaced by the nth  argument;  if  there
       are fewer than n arguments, it is replaced by nothing.

   Predefined macros
       GNU  eqn  supports  the  predefined  macros  offered  by AT&T eqn: and,
       approx, arc, cos, cosh, del, det, dot, dotdot, dyad,  exp,  for,  grad,
       half,  hat,  if,  inter, Im, inf, int, lim, ln, log, max, min, nothing,
       partial, prime, prod, Re, sin, sinh,  sum,  tan,  tanh,  tilde,  times,
       union, vec, ==, !=, +=, ->, <-, <<, >>, and “...”.  The lowercase clas‐
       sical  Greek letters are available as alpha, beta, chi, delta, epsilon,
       eta, gamma, iota, kappa, lambda, mu, nu, omega, omicron, phi, pi,  psi,
       rho, sigma, tau, theta, upsilon, xi, and zeta.  Spell them with an ini‐
       tial  capital  letter (Alpha) or in full capitals (ALPHA) to obtain up‐
       percase forms.

       GNU eqn further defines the macros cdot, cdots, and  utilde  (all  dis‐
       cussed  above), dollar, which sets a dollar sign, and ldots, which sets
       an ellipsis on the text baseline.

   Fonts
       eqn uses up to three typefaces to set an  equation:  italic  (oblique),
       roman (upright), and bold.  Assign each a groff typeface with the prim‐
       itives  gfont,  grfont,  and gbfont.  The defaults are the styles I, R,
       and B (applied to the current font  family).   The  chartype  primitive
       (see  above) sets a character's type, which determines the face used to
       set it.  The “letter” type is set in italics; others are set in  roman.
       Use the bold primitive to select an (upright) bold style.

       gbfont f
              Select f as the bold font.  This is a GNU extension.

       gfont f
              Select f as the italic font.

       grfont f
              Select f as the roman font.  This is a GNU extension.

Options
       --help  displays  a  usage message, while -v and --version show version
       information; all exit afterward.

       -C     Recognize .EQ and .EN even when followed by  a  character  other
              than space or newline.

       -d xy  Specify  delimiters x for left and y for right ends of equations
              not bracketed by .EQ/.EN.  x and y need not  be  distinct.   Any
              “delim xy” statements in the source file override this option.

       -f F   is equivalent to “gfont F”.

       -m n   is equivalent to “set minimum_size n”.

       -M dir Search  dir  for  eqnrc before those listed in section “Descrip‐
              tion” above.

       -N     Prohibit newlines within delimiters.  This option allows eqn  to
              recover better from missing closing delimiters.

       -p n   Set  sub- and superscripts n points smaller than the surrounding
              text.  This option is deprecated.  eqn normally  sets  sub-  and
              superscripts at 70% of the type size of the surrounding text.

       -r     Reduce  the type size of subscripts at most once relative to the
              base type size for the equation.

       -R     Don't load eqnrc.

       -s n   is equivalent to “gsize n”.  This option is deprecated.

       -T dev Prepare output for the device dev.  In most cases, the effect of
              this is to define a macro dev with a value of 1; eqnrc uses this
              to provide definitions appropriate for the device.  However,  if
              the  specified  driver  is “MathML”, the output is MathML markup
              rather than troff input, and eqnrc is not loaded  at  all.   The
              default output device is ps.

MathML mode limitations
       MathML  is  designed  on  the  assumption that it cannot know the exact
       physical characteristics of the media and devices on which it  will  be
       rendered.  It does not support control of motions and sizes to the same
       degree troff does.

       • eqn customization parameters have no effect on generated MathML.

       • The  special,  up,  down,  fwd,  and back primitives cannot be imple‐
         mented, and yield a MathML “<merror>” message instead.

       • The vcenter primitive is silently ignored, as centering on  the  math
         axis is the MathML default.

       • Characters  that eqn sets extra large in troff mode—notably the inte‐
         gral sign—may appear too small and  need  to  have  their  “<mstyle>”
         wrappers adjusted by hand.

       As  in its troff mode, eqn in MathML mode leaves the .EQ and .EN tokens
       in place, but emits nothing corresponding to  delim  delimiters.   They
       can,  however,  be  recognized  as  character sequences that begin with
       “<math>”, end with “</math>”, and do not cross line boundaries.

Caveats
       Tokens must be double-quoted in eqn input if they are not to be  recog‐
       nized  as  names  of  macros or primitives, or if they are to be inter‐
       preted by troff.  In particular, short ones, like “pi”  and  “PI”,  can
       collide  with  troff identifiers.  For instance, the eqn command “gfont
       PI” does not select groff's Palatino italic font for the global  italic
       face; you must use “gfont "PI"” instead.

       Delimited  equations  are set at the type size current at the beginning
       of the input line, not necessarily that immediately preceding the open‐
       ing delimiter.

       Unlike TeX, eqn does not inherently distinguish  displayed  and  inline
       equation  styles;  see  the  smallover primitive above.  However, macro
       packages frequently define EQ and EN  macros  such  that  the  equation
       within  is displayed.  These macros may accept arguments permitting the
       equation to be labeled or captioned; see the package's documentation.

Bugs
       eqn abuses terminology—its “equations” can be  inequalities,  bare  ex‐
       pressions,  or  unintelligible  gibberish.   But there's no changing it
       now.

       In nroff mode, lowercase Greek letters are rendered in roman instead of
       italic style.

       In MathML mode, the mark and lineup features don't work.  These  could,
       in theory, be implemented with “<maligngroup>” elements.

       In  MathML  mode, each digit of a numeric literal gets a separate “<mn>
       </mn>” pair, and decimal points are tagged with “<mo></mo>”.   This  is
       allowed by the specification, but inefficient.

Examples
       We first illustrate eqn usage with a trigonometric identity.

              .EQ
              sin ( alpha + beta ) = sin alpha cos beta + cos alpha sin beta
              .EN

       It  can be convenient to set up delimiters if mathematical content will
       appear frequently in running text.

              .EQ
              delim $$
              .EN
              Having cached a table of logarithms,
              the property $ln ( x y ) = ln x + ln y$ sped calculations.

       The quadratic formula illustrates use of fractions  and  radicals,  and
       affords an opportunity to use the full space token ~.

              .EQ
              x = { - b ~ \[+-] ~ sqrt { b sup 2 - 4 a c } } over { 2 a }
              .EN

       Alternatively,  we  could define the plus-minus sign as a binary opera‐
       tor.  Automatic spacing puts 0.06 em less space on either side  of  the
       plus-minus than ~ does, this being the difference between the widths of
       the  medium_space  parameter  used  by binary operators and that of the
       full space.  Independently, we can define a macro  “frac”  for  setting
       fractions.

              .EQ
              chartype "binary" \[+-]
              define frac ! { $1 } over { $2 } !
              x = frac(- b \[+-] sqrt { b sup 2 - 4 a c }, 2 a)
              .EN
