.Sh NAME
.Nm soelim
.Nd eliminate \&.so's from nroff input
.Sh SYNOPSIS
1997-10-20 03:25:50 +04:00
.Nm
.Op Fl I Ar directory
1993-03-21 12:45:37 +03:00
.Op Ar file ...
.Sh DESCRIPTION
1997-10-20 03:25:50 +04:00
.Nm
1993-03-21 12:45:37 +03:00
reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the textual
inclusion implied by the
.Xr nroff 1
directives of the form:
.Pp
.Dl \&.so somefile
.Pp
The directives need to appear at the beginning of input lines.
This is useful since programs such as
.Xr tbl 1
do not normally do this; it allows the placement of individual tables
in separate files to be run as a part of a large document.
.Pp
An argument consisting of a single minus
.Ql Fl
is taken to be
a file name corresponding to the standard input.
.Pp
Note that inclusion can be suppressed by using
.Ql \e'
instead of
.Ql \e. ,
i.e.
.Pp
.Dl \'so /usr/lib/tmac.s
.Pp
