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 typeset 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.
