10 | soelim \- eliminate \&.so's from nroff input | |
11 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
12 | .B soelim | |
13 | [ | |
14 | file ... | |
15 | ] | |
16 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
17 | .I Soelim | |
18 | reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the textual | |
19 | inclusion implied by the | |
20 | .I nroff | |
21 | directives of the form | |
22 | .PP | |
23 | .DT | |
24 | \&.so somefile | |
25 | .PP | |
26 | when they appear at the beginning of input lines. | |
27 | This is useful since programs such as | |
28 | .I tbl | |
f0a4317e | 29 | do not normally do this; it allows the placement of individual tables |
181875c3 KM |
30 | in separate files to be run as a part of a large document. |
31 | .PP | |
f0a4317e KM |
32 | An argument consisting of a single minus |
33 | .RB ( \- ) | |
34 | is taken to be | |
35 | a file name corresponding to the standard input. | |
36 | .PP | |
37 | Note that inclusion can be suppressed by using `\'' instead of `\.', i.e. | |
181875c3 KM |
38 | .PP |
39 | .DT | |
40 | \'so /usr/lib/tmac.s | |
41 | .PP | |
42 | A sample usage of | |
43 | .I soelim | |
44 | would be | |
45 | .PP | |
46 | soelim exum?.n | tbl | nroff \-ms | col | lpr | |

49 | .SH BUGS |
50 | The format of the source commands must involve no strangeness \- | |
f0a4317e | 51 | exactly one blank must precede and no blanks follow the file name. |
