books/utp 1.0 OpenBSD

Originally published in 1987, Unix Text Processing (UTP) (written by Dale Dougherty and Tim O'Reilly) provides one of the few comprehensive looks at all the tools involved in a typical troff-based writing workflow. It covers:

• UNIX and troff basics
• text editors (vi, ex, and sed)
• the ms and mm macro packages
• scripting with sh, awk, and sed
• the tbl, eqn and pic preprocessors
• macro writing

The appendices provide a collection of reference material and other useful pointers.
