NAME
     gnroff - emulate nroff command with groff

SYNOPSIS
     gnroff [ -CchipStUv ] [ -dcs ] [ -Mdir ] [ -mname ]
            [ -nnum ] [ -olist ] [ -rcn ] [ -Tname ] [ file ... ]

DESCRIPTION
     The gnroff script emulates the nroff  command  using  groff.
     Only ascii, latin1, utf8, and cp1047 are valid arguments for
     the -T option, selecting  the  output  encoding  emitted  by
     grotty,  groff's  TTY output device.  If an invalid or no -T
     option is given, gnroff checks the current locale to  select
     a default output device.  It first tries the locale program,
     then the environment variables LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE,  and  LANG,
     and finally the LESSCHARSET environment variable.

     The -h and -c options are equivalent to grotty's options  -h
     (using  tabs  in  the  output)  and -c (using the old output
     scheme instead of SGR escape sequences).  The  -d,  -C,  -i,
     -M,  -m, -n, -o, and -r options have the effect described in
     gtroff(1).  In addition, gnroff silently ignores the options
     -e,  -q,  and  -s  (which  are  not  implemented in gtroff).
     Options -p (pic), -t (tbl), -S (safer), and -U (unsafe)  are
     passed to groff.  -v shows the version number.

ENVIRONMENT
     GROFF_BIN_PATH
          A colon separated  list  of  directories  in  which  to
          search  for  the  groff  executable before searching in
          PATH.  If unset, `/usr/bin' is used.

NOTES
     This shell script is basically intended for use with man(1),
     so  warnings  are suppressed.  nroff-style character defini-
     tions (in the file tty-char.tmac) are also loaded to emulate
     unrepresentable glyphs.
