21.SH DESCRIPTION
22.PP
23.I just
24and
25.I fill
26are filters for filling and right justifying or simply filling
27lines of text, respectively.  They are intended to be used to
28filter text regions when called from an editor such as \fIvi\fP.

30would be:
31.sp

35If no argument is given, the right margin defaults to column 65,
36otherwise \fInnn\fP specifies a column number in the range 1 <= \fInnn\fP <= 510.

39input: The first line will have the same indentation as in the input,
40and the rest of the paragraph is indented the same as the second line
41of the input (if any).

43Tabs are converted to spaces on input.  An extra space at the end of
44a sentence is preserved if present in the input.
