roff2text(1) General Commands Manual roff2text(1)
roff2text - transform roff code into text mode
roff2text [ groffer_option ...] [--] [ filespec ...]
roff2text -h|--help
roff2text -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 inter‐
nally 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.
roff2text transforms roff code into text mode. Print the result to
standard output.
There are more of these programs for generating other formats of roff
input.
roff2dvi(1)
is for dvi mode.
roff2html(1)
generates HTML output.
roff2pdf(1)
outputs pdf mode.
roff2ps(1)

programs like gxditview(1) or xditview(1).
