Text is rendered alternately in italics and bold face. Whitespace

between arguments is omitted in output.

.It \&IP

Begin a paragraph with the following syntax:

.Bd -literal -offset indent

\&.IP [head [width]]

.Pp

This follows the behaviour of the

.Sq \&TP

macro except that

.Va width ,

which is only considered as such if properly-formed (e.g., 24n, 4,

etc.), is used as the indentation offset instead of the default

indentation value.

Text is rendered alternately in italics and roman (the default font).

Whitespace between arguments is omitted in output.

followed by a newline; if not, the body follows on the same line after a

buffer to the indentation width. Subsequent output lines are indented.

.It \&br

for groff compatibility notes.

.Bl -hyphen

.It

In quoted literals, groff allowed pair-wise double-quotes to produce a

standalone double-quote in formatted output. This idiosyncratic

behaviour is no longer applicable.

.It

The

.Sq \&sp

macro does not accept negative numbers.

.It

Blocks of whitespace are stripped from both macro and free-form text

lines (except when in literal mode), while groff would retain whitespace

in free-form text lines.
