Tim Edwards a816da60f9 Updated the HTML command reference files to refer to magic version 8.3,
since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still
said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<H3>Usage:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>contact</B> [<B>erase</B>] <I>type</I><BR><BR>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>contact</B> command computes the intersection area (inside the
cursor box) of the two (or more) residue types that make up the contact
type <I>type</I>, and paints the contact type <I>type</I> on top of the
area of intersection. <P>
Option <B>contact erase</B> erases contacts from the area of the cursor
box without affecting the metal layers (or stacked contacts) surrounding
the contact being erased. (Note that the <B>erase</B> command will
remove both the contact type and the surrounding metal layers.)
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>contact</B> is implemented as a built-in layout command in <B>magic</B>.
