DOCGEN(1) DOCGEN(1)
NAME
docgen - generate a document from a script
SYNOPSIS
docgen [ option ] ... [ ofile ]
DESCRIPTION
Docgen guides interactive preparation of standard documents
according to canned scripts and places the output in ofile.
The output typically takes the form of troff(1) input.
These options invoke standard scripts:
-mcs Bell Labs cover sheet; output (`temp.cover' by default)
may be typeset thus: troff temp.cover
-ms (default) all kinds of document known to the macro
package ms(7); output (`temp' by default) may be type-
set thus: troff -ms temp
-mm similarly for the MM macro package of System V
Other options are:
-f file
take script from file
-v (verbose) print document as it is generated
-d (debug) print information about the script as it is
read
The reference tells how to construct scripts.
