NAME¶
troff2null - convert
troff documents to
troffcvt internal format
SYNTAX¶
troff2null [
options ]
file ... ]
DESCRIPTION¶
troff2null converts files written in the
troff input language and
converts them to the
troffcvt internal representation. It works by
running the input files through
troffcvt and then through
tc2null
.
troff2null understands the usual
troffcvt options. It also
understands the additional options listed below:
- -D
- Enable debugging output.
- -E
- Cause tc2null to echo token information to stderr as tokens
are read from troffcvt.
- -n
- No execution. Just show the commands that troff2null would execute
to process the document.
- -p
- Don't run the postprocessor (tc2null).
- -T title
- Specify a title for the document. This can be used for documents that do
not contain any recognizable title. If the document does contain a title,
it is overridden.

BUGS¶
troff2null uses a set of special macros that tell
troffcvt how to
generate
tc2null-specific output that
tc2null uses to recognize
NULL structural elements. These macros do not work in compatibility
mode.
