3. Usage

Per default, makeman.pl reads the output of nsgmls from stdin and write roff sources to stdout. Alternatively, the input- and output-files can be specified as i-line options, in which case the input file may be the SGML source.

For example:
% nsgmls infile.sgml | makeman.pl -o outfile.1

Or:
% makeman.pl -i infile.sgml -o outfile.1
Or:
% makeman.pl -i infile.sgml | gzip -c > outfile.1.gz
