Generally it is used in conjunction with _s_o_r_t_b_i_b: sortbib database | roffbib _R_o_f_f_b_i_b accepts most of the options understood by _n_r_o_f_f(1), most importantly the --TT flag to specify terminal type. If abstracts or comments are entered following the %X field key, _r_o_f_f_b_i_b will format them into paragraphs for an anno- tated bibliography. Several %X fields may be given if several annotation paragraphs are desired. The --xx flag will suppress the printing of these abstracts. A user-defined set of macros may be specified after the --mm option. There should be a space between the --mm and the macro filename. This set of macros will replace the ones defined in /usr/lib/tmac/tmac.bib. The --VV flag will send output to the Versatec; the --QQ flag will queue output for the phototypesetter. Four command-line registers control formatting style of the bibliography, much like the number registers of _m_s(7). The command-line argument --rrN1 will number the references start- ing at one (1). The flag --rrV2 will double space the biblio- graphy, while --rrV1 will double space references but single space annotation paragraphs. The line length can be changed from the default 6.5 inches to 6 inches with the --rrL6i argu- ment, and the page offset can be set from the default of 0 to one inch by specifying --rrO1i (capital O, not zero). Note: with the --VV and --QQ flags the default page offset is already one inch.
