NAME
roff2ps - transform roff code into ps mode
SYNOPSIS
[groffer_option...] [filespec...] -h | --help -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.
