NAME

       groff_mom - groff ‘mom’ macros

SYNOPSIS

       groff -mom [ files... ]
       groff -m mom [ files... ]

DESCRIPTION

       mom  (“my  own  macros”, “my other macros”, “maximum overdrive macros”,
       ...) is a macro set for groff, designed primarily to  format  documents
       for PostScript output.

       mom  provides  two  categories  of  macros:  macros for typesetting and
       macros for document processing.  The typesetting macros provide  access
       to  groff’s typesetting power in ways that are simpler to master and to
       use than groff’s primitives.  The document  processing  macros  provide
       customizable  markup  “tags”  that  allow the user to design and output
       professional-looking  documents   with   a   minimum   of   typesetting
       intervention.

       mom comes with her own (very) complete documentation in HTML format.
