13.3 Number Registers Used in mm

A dagger ( [dagger] ) next to a register name indicates that the register can be set only from the command line or before the mm macro definitions are read by the formatter. Any register having a single-character name can be set from the command line with the -r option.

A	If set to 1, omit technical memorandum headings and provide spaces appropriate for letterhead (see .AF macro).
Au	Omit author information on first page (see .AU macro).
C	Flag indicating type of copy (original, draft, etc.).
Cl	Level of headings saved for table of contents (see .TC macro). Default is 2.
Cp	If set to 1 (default), list of figures and tables appear on same page as table of contents. Otherwise, they start on a new page.
D	If set to 1, use debug mode (`mm` continues even after encountering normally fatal errors). Default is 0.
De	If set to 1, eject page after each floating display. Default is 0.
Df	Set format of floating displays (see .DF macro).

Ex	Exhibit counter, incremented for each .EX macro.
Fg	Figure counter, incremented for each .FG macro.
Fs	Vertical spacing between footnotes.
H`n`	Heading counter for level `n` (1 to 7), incremented by .H macro of corresponding level or by .HU macro if at level given by register Hu . Registers H2 to H7 are reset to 0 by any .H (or .HU ) macro at a lower-numbered level.
Hb	Level of heading for which break occurs before output of body text. Default is 2.
Hc	Level of heading for which centering occurs. Default is 0.
