NAME
mmt, mvt - typeset documents, viewgraphs, and slides
USAGE
mmt [options] [files]
mvt [options] [files]
DESCRIPTION
Although very similar to mm (1), these two commands typeset
their input via troff (1), as opposed to formatting it via
nroff (1). Mmt uses the MM macro package for its operations.
Mvt uses the Macro Package for View Graphs and Slides.
Preprocessing through tbl (1) and eqn (1) is available for
both. The proper pipelines and the required arguments and
flags for troff (1) and the appropriate macro packages are
generated, depending on the options selected.
Arguments or flags other than those given below are passed
to troff (1) or to the macro package, as appropriate. Such
options can occur in any order, but they must appear before
the files argument. If no arguments are given, mmt prints a
list of its options.
OPTIONS
-e Invoke eqn (1) and cause it to read the
/usr/pub/eqnchar file. See eqnchar (5) for
details concerning this file.
-t Invoke tbl (1).
-Tdest Create output for troff (1) device dest.
-Di10 Direct the output to the local Imagen Imprint-10
laser printer.
-a Invoke the -a option of troff (1).
-y Use the noncompacted version of the macros. This
is the default.
-z Invoke no output filter to process or redirect the
output of troff (1).
CAUTIONS
If you specify a simple dash (-), -e option, and/or -t
option along with the -olist option of troff (1), a harmless
``broken pipe'' diagnostic may result. This usually happens
under these conditions if the last page of the document is
not specified in list.
DIAGNOSTICS
``m[mv]t: no input file'' if none of the arguments is a
