Synopsis
roff2pdf
[groffer_option...]
[--] [filespec...]
roff2pdf
-h | --help
roff2pdf
-v | --version
The options
-v and --version print the
version information of the program to standard output and
exit. The options -h and
--help print a usage information of the
program to standard output and stop the program
instantly.
All other
options are assumed to be groffer options. They are
internally passed to groffer. They override the
behavior of the program. The options are optional, they can
be omitted.
The
filespec arguments correspond to the filespec
arguments of groffer. So they are either the names of
existing, readable files or - for standard
input, or the name of a man page or a groffer(1) man
page search pattern. If no filespec is specified
standard input is assumed automatically.
