% TeX allows quite a lot of leeway in whitespace, so I've messed this
% up a bit.  I find keeping the format structured helps me a lot tho.
% Note: but don't have blank lines *inside* the body of text in
% a dialogue environment.
% I use vi (Elvis) with macros to make a lot of typing disappear.

% Anyhoo, on with the show ...

\begin{dialogue}{Bob}
That means that someone
sabotaged the unit and killed the
President! Was it one of us?
\end{dialogue}
\begin{dialogue}{Brown}
Who else is mad but us, Condi~--
and Bliar?
\end{dialogue}

Bob buries his head in his hands.
\intercut

\intslug{Atlantis -- somewhere ANyway}

John and Mark are at adjacent consoles. Fred is with them. Tom
is at another console slightly further away.

\begin{dialogue}{John}
The planetoid seems to have a thin crust
covering a nickel-iron core. Could have
been an Earth-like planet at one time.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Mark}
We're coming up on the radio source now.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{John}
Are we?
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Mark}
Yes.
\end{dialogue}

Brown walks in and goes to a console.

He has a PARROT on his shoulder.

\begin{dialogue}{Fred}
Switch the visual to main screen so we
can get a good look.\end{dialogue}

They look up at the main screen.

\begin{dialogue}[to John and Mark]{Fred}
Lock on to that. Give me a Scanalysis.
\dialbreak[to Tom]{Fred}
Establish planetary orbit, stationary
above this thing.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Mark}
It seems to be solid with a high
metallic content and be the source of
the radio energy.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{John}
The gravity map shows there's some kind
of cavern directly beneath it.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Fred}
Get me the fullest details you can.
Survey that cavern and see what you can
make of it. Looks like this is what we
came all the way to see.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Brown}
You'd better prep the Galileo for a
planet-fall. Looks like we've got some
digging to do. Unless Bliar objects
that is.
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Fred}I didn't come all this way to see the
first signs of alien life then turn
around and ignore it.\paren{beat} I wonder how this
will fit into Bliar's theology.\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Brown}
Perhaps when you've done some digging
we'll have some answers.\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}{Parrot}
Or maybe more questions.
\end{dialogue}



\begin{dialogue}{Brown}
Who said that?
\end{dialogue}

\begin{dialogue}[to radio]{Fred}
Now hear this. Shuttle to be prepared
for launch.
\end{dialogue}
\pagebreak%

\intslug{Atlantis -- SHIP'S  HOLD}

The Hold is large, has various piles of crates and
equipment
stored in it.       Near the door is a large coffin-shaped packing
crate standing on its end.


\intextslug[day]{in or out}
Apparently some people do this.

\extintslug[night]{out or in}
Or even this.

\extslug[day or nite]{NO WARRANTY -- EXPRESS OR IMPLIED}

\pov I made the slugline DAY/NIGHT optional 'cause in space no-one can
tell the time.  You probably will need to specify.

\nb  Don't put in pagebreaks by hand until you're really, really
finished editing!

It isn't the done thing to hyphenate for formatting purposes.

Use the source, Luke.


\intslug[illumination]{title over environment or centred title}

\begin{titleover}There's a titleover environment for dialogue-like layout if you're
doing the "Star Wars" thing.\end{titleover}

\ldots or a centred title over\ldots

\centretitle{http://dvc.org.uk/sacrific.txt/}

\extslug[All Hail Discordia!]{where to find us}
http://dvc.org.uk/sacrific.txt/example.tex\\
http://dvc.org.uk/sacrific.txt/screenplay.cls

\extslug[illumination]{for definitive info on layout}
