| 10 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 11 | .I Soelim |
| 12 | reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the textual |
| 13 | inclusion implied by the |
| 14 | .I nroff |
| 15 | directives of the form |
| 16 | .PP |
| 17 | .DT |
| 18 | \&.so somefile |
| 19 | .PP |
| 20 | when they appear at the beginning of input lines. |
| 21 | This is useful since programs such as |
| 22 | .I tbl |
| 23 | do not normally do this; |
| 24 | it allows the placement of individual tables |
| 25 | in separate files to be run as a part of a large document. |
| 26 | .PP |
| 27 | Note that inclusion can be suppressed by using |
| 28 | `\'' instead of `\.', i.e. |
| 29 | .PP |
| 30 | .DT |
| 31 | \'so /usr/lib/tmac.s |
| 32 | .PP |
| 33 | A sample usage of |

| 37 | soelim exum?.n | tbl | nroff \-ms | col | lpr |
