from the original back cover blurb:
Today, writers not only work with words, they work with computers and the software programs, printers, and terminals that are part of a computer system.
UNIX Text Processing reveals how computers can be used effectively in the preparation of written documents, particularly major book-length projects. The useful tools and techniques featured in UNIX Text Processing can help you unlock the resources and power of a computer system to tackle such writing projects as technical manuals, reports, and proposals.
In these pages, you'll learn:
What's in the UNIX toolbox for writers, including format design, printing, and editing
How to make the computer do most of the work, using shell scripts and editing scripts
How to make use of the awk programming language for managing information
How to create simple line drawings, tables, and equations
How troff helps you take advantage of the capabilities of laser printers and typesetters
How to customize macros for document formatting
