SYNOPSIS
roff2ps [groffer-option ...] [--] [filespec ...]
roff2ps -h
roff2ps --help
roff2ps -v
roff2ps --version
The options -v and --version print the version information of the program to standard out-
put and exit. The options -h and --help print a usage information of the program to stan-
dard 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 ei-
ther 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.
