+% Specify how many you want here.

+% Set letterpapaer to 0 for A4 paper, 1 for letter (US) paper.  Useful

+% This file is intended to be processed by plain TeX (TeX82).
+%
+% The final reference card has six columns, three on each side.
+% This file can be used to produce it in any of three ways:
+% 1 column per page
+%    produces six separate pages, each of which needs to be reduced to 80%.
+%    This gives the best resolution.
+% 2 columns per page
+%    produces three already-reduced pages.
+%    You will still need to cut and paste.
+% 3 columns per page
+%    produces two pages which must be printed sideways to make a
+%    ready-to-use 8.5 x 11 inch reference card.
+%    For this you need a dvi device driver that can print sideways.
+% Which mode to use is controlled by setting \columnsperpage above.
+%
+% To compile and print this document:
+% tex refcard.tex
+% dvips -t landscape refcard.dvi
