SH NAME

PP
Latex2man
is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with
LaTeXinto a format understood by the UNIX \fIman\fP(1)\-command.
Alternatively HTML, TexInfo, or LaTeX code can be produced too.
Output of parts of the text may be suppressed using the conditional text
feature (for this, LaTeX generation may be used).

SH SYNOPSIS

[\fB\-c\fP\fICSSfile\fP]
[\fB\-HMTL\fP]
[\fB\-h\fP]
[\fB\-V\fP]
[\fB\-C\fP\fIname\fP]
[\fB\-a\fP\fIchar\fP]
\fIinfile\fP
\fIoutfile\fP
PP
SH DESCRIPTION

Latex2man
reads the file \fIinfile\fP
and writes \fIoutfile\fP\&.
The
input must be a LaTeX document using the latex2man
LaTeXpackage.
Latex2man
translates that document into the \fItroff\fP(1)
format using
the \fB\-man\fP
macro package.
PP
Using the \fB\-H\fP
option, HTML code can be produced, instead of
\fItroff\fP(1)\&.
With this option you can, optionally, specify a \fICSSfile\fP
as an argument.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) allows you to control the appearance of the resulting HTML page.
See below for the names of CSS classes that are included in the HTML tags as attributes.
PP
Using the \fB\-T\fP
option, TexInfo code can be produced, instead of
\fItroff\fP(1)\&.
PP
Using the \fB\-M\fP
option, \fItroff\fP(1)
input is produced.
PP
Using the \fB\-L\fP
option, LaTeX ouput can be produced, instead of
\fItroff\fP(1)\&.
PP
SH OPTIONS

TP
\fB\-t\fP\fItransfile\fP
Translation for user defined LaTeX macros.
TP
\fB\-c\fP\fICSSfile\fP
If you use the \fB\-H\fP
you can also specify a file that contains CSS
style sheets. The link to the CSS file is inserted into the generatedHTML output using the
specified \fICSSfile\fP
filename.
TP
\fB\-M\fP
Produce output suitable for the \fIman\fP(1)
command (default).
TP
\fB\-H\fP
Instead of producing output suitable for the \fIman\fP(1)
command, HTML code is produced (despite the name of the command).
TP
\fB\-T\fP
Instead of producing output suitable for the \fIman\fP(1)
command, TexInfo code is produced (despite the name of the command). The
generated \&.texi\-file
may be processed with \fImakeinfo\fP(1)
(to produce an \&.info\-file)
which in turn may be installed using
\fIinstall\-info\fP(1)\&.
The Info tags @dircategory and
@direntry are provided.
TP
\fB\-L\fP
The LaTeX source is written to the \fIoutfile\fP\&.
This is
useful in conjunction with the \fB\-C\fP\fIname\fP
option.
TP
\fB\-C\fP\fIname\fP
Output the conditional text for \fIname\fP\&.
If more
than one name should be given use quotes: \fB\-C\fP\fI\&'name1 name2 ...\&'\fP

RE
TP
\fB\-a\fP\fIchar\fP
Is used only in conjunction with \-T.
br
Background:
br
TexInfo ignores all blanks before the first word on a new line. In order
to produce some additional space before that word (using \\SP) some
character has to be printed before the additional space. By default this
is a \&. (dot). The \fIchar\fP
specifies an alternative for that first
character. Giving a blank to
\fB\-a\fP
supresses the indentation of a line.
br
Note: only for the first \\SP of a series that \fIchar\fP
is printed.
TP
\fB\-h\fP
Show a help text.
TP
\fB\-V\fP
Show version information.

SH LaTeX COMMANDS

PP
The LaTeX package latex2man
is used to write the Man\-pages with
LaTeX\&.Since we translate into other text formats, not all LaTeX stuff can
be translated.
PP
SS PACKAGE OPTIONS
The latex2man
package accepts the following options:
PP
TP
fancy
use the LaTeX package fancyheadings\&.
TP
fancyhdr
use the LaTeX package fancyhdr\&.
TP
nofancy
neither the LaTeX package fancyheadings
nor
fancyhdr
are used.
PP
The default option may be specified in the file latex2man.cfg\&.
PP
SS PACKAGE SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTS
PP
The following environments are provided by the package:
TP
\\begin{Name}{chapter}{name}{author}{info}{title}
The
Name
environment takes five arguments: 1. the Man\-page chapter,
2. the name of the Man\-page, 3. the author, 4. some short information
about the tool printed in the footline of the Man\-page, and 5. a text
which is used as title, for HTML and LaTeX (it\&'s ignored for output of
the Man\-page or TeXinfo. The Name
environment must be the first
environment in the document. Processing starts with this environment. Any
text before this is ignored (exception: the setVersion and
setDate commands). (Note: all arguments of \\begin{Name} must
be written on one line).
TP
\\begin{Table}[width]{columns}
The Table
environment takes two arguments: the first optional one specifies
a width of the last column, the second one gives the number of columns.
For example:
PP
\\begin{Table}[2cm]{3}
br
Here & am & I \\\\\\hline
br
A 1 & A 2 & A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5 \\\\
br
B 1 & B 2 & B 3 \\\\
br
\\end{Table}
PP
will be typeset as:
PP
TS
tab(&);
l l lw(2cm).
T{
Here
T}&T{
am
T}&T{
I
T}
_
T{
A 1
T}&T{
A 2
T}&T{
A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5
T}
T{
B 1
T}&T{
B 2
T}&T{
B 3
T}
TE
PP
If no optional \fIwidth\fP
argument is given, all entries are
typeset left justified.
The \fIwidth\fP
is a length measured absolutly in \fIcm\fP\&.
Processing with LaTeX a p{width} column is typeset
as last column. The translation to \fItroff\fP(1)
commands
results in a lw(width)
column specification. Translating
to HTML and TexInfo ignores the \fIwidth\fP
parameter.
PP
\\hline may be used.
PP
If the Man\-page is formatted with \fItroff\fP(1)
and tables are used, the
\fItbl\fP(1)
preprocessor should be called, usually by giving
a \fB\-t\fP
to the call of \fItroff\fP(1)\&.
When viewing the generated
manula page using \fIman\fP(1),
\fItbl\fP(1)
is called automatically.
TP
\\begin{Description}
is the same as \\begin{description}
TP
\\begin{Description}[label]
is similar to
\\begin{description}, but the item labels have at minimum the size
of the (optional) word \fIlabel\fP\&.
The difference is visible only
in the DVI and PDF\-output, not in the troff, TexInfo or HTML output.

If these letters are used in their LATIN\-1 8\-bit coding, they are

TP
\\input{\&.\&.}
Read and process the given filename.

Please note: the name of the LaTeX\-macrosand its arguments must be contained in one line.
PP
SS CONDITIONAL TEXT
PP
latex2man
preprocesses the LaTeX input to allow text to be used
conditionally. A special sort of LaTeX comment is used for that purpose.
TP
B *
%@% IF \fIcondition\fP %@%
TP
B *
%@% ELSE %@%
TP
B *
%@% END\-IF %@%
PP
A line must contain only such a comment and nothing else. \fIcondition\fP
is
a boolean expression containing ``names\&'' and operators. The names given with
the \fB\-C\fP\fIname\fP
option have the value ``true\&'', while all other names
occuring in the expression are assumed to be ``false\&''\&. If the evaluation of
the boolean expression results in the value ``true\&'', the text in the
``then\&''\-part is used and the text in the optional ``else\&''\-part is skipped
(and vice versa). The IF/ELSE/END\-IF
may be nested. As boolean
operators the following are allowed:
PP
TS
tab(&);
l l.
T{
||T}&T{
boolean or
T}
T{
&&T}&T{
boolean and
T}
T{
!
T}&T{
negation
TE
PP
( and ) for grouping are allowed.
PP
For example:
br
%@% IF abc %@%
br
abc set
br
%@% IF xyz %@%
br
xyz set
br
%@% ELSE %@%
br
xyz NOT set
br
%@% END\-IF %@%
br
%@% ELSE %@%
br
abc NOT set
br
%@% IF xyz || !XYZ %@%
br
xyz OR !XYZ set
br
%@% ELSE %@%
br
xyz OR !XYZ NOT set
br
%@% END\-IF %@%
br
%@% END\-IF %@%
PP
Run this manual page through latex2man
with e.g.
\fB\-C\fP\fI\&'abc XYZ\&'\fP
and have a look to the generated output.
(If simply running the LaTeX\-document through LaTeX,all lines are shown in the

PP
TP
1.
Empty lines are typeset as paragraph separators.
TP
2.
The arguments of the LaTeX commands must not be split over several
lines.
TP
3.
Do not nest calls to macros.
TP
4.
Except the mentioned environment and macros, the usage of other LaTeX
environments or macros are not translated. Their usage will cause garbage
in the output.
TP
5.
latex2man requires Perl version >= 5.0004_03.
TP
6.
If you want to install the system with the distributed Makefile,
you need GNU\-make\&.
If you don\&'t have it, you should execute the
steps shown in the Makefile
manually.
