\centerline{QUICK REFERENCE TABLE FOR PMX 
\hfill Version 1.34
\hfill March 1998
\hfill by Don Simons (dsimons@logicon.com)}

%\begin{multicols}{2}
\null

 This table defines legal PMX {\it symbols}. Each one starts with a 
single character from a non-indented line, followed by characters from 
subsequent indented lines, with no internal spaces. When characters 
on the same line are separated by commas, only one can be used, unless 
otherwise noted. Characters enclosed in {\tt [~]} are optional. Several 
characters, chosen from different lines that are indented the same 
amount, may be used in sequence. {\it d1, d2} are single digits, so 
for example {\it d1}{\tt[}{\it d2}{\tt]} is a one- or two-digit integer.
{\it i} is any non-negative integer.  
{\it x} is any non-negative decimal number.
