Contains special character definitions for the eqn and neqn commands.
The /usr/share/lib/pub/eqnchar file contains troff and nroff command character definitions not ordinarily available on a phototypesetter or printer. These definitions are primarily intended for use with the eqn and neqn commands.
The /usr/share/lib/pub/cateqnchar file is device-independent and should produce output that looks reasonable on any device supported by the troff command. You can link the /usr/share/lib/pub/eqnchar file to the /usr/share/lib/pub/cateqnchar file.
The eqnchar file format can be used with either the eqn or neqn command and then piped to the troff or nroff command. For example:
eqn /usr/share/lib/pub/eqnchar [ Flag... ] [ -- ] [ File... ] | troff [ Flag... ]
eqn /usr/share/lib/pub/cateqnchar [ Flag... ] [ -- ] [ File... ] | troff [ Flag... ]
neqn /usr/share/lib/pub/eqnchar [ Flag... ] [ -- ] [ File... ] | nroff [ Flag... ]
