sgml2latex
converts a SGML source file to LaTeX output, using the
sgmls(1)
parser, and the
sgmlsasp(1)
translator. Using the LaTeX output, and the
latex(1)
text formatter, you can then create DVI output, and PostScript output
using the
dvips(1)
converter. Output will appear in
file.tex
for LaTeX output,
file.dvi
for DVI output, or
file.ps
for PostScript output,
where
file
is the name of the SGML source file.
The attribute/value pair "output=latex2e" is set for conditionals.
OPTIONS
sgm2latex
accepts all the generic optionsd described in
sgmltools(1),
and the following specific options:
--output=fmt, -l
Specify the desired output format. The specifier
fmt
may be ``tex'', ``dvi'', or ``ps''.
Generate a TeX index file suitable for processing with
makeindex(1)
from and <idx> and <cdx> tags present in the SGML source.
--pagenumber, -n
Set the starting page number in the output DVI or PS file.
--quick, -q
Do only one pass of LaTeX formatting. This is often not sufficient
to produce final output (because of references, etc.) but is useful
for spotting TeX errors and justification problems.
--pass, -P
The argument of the pass option is inserted just after the LaTeX
preamble generated by the document-type tag.
file
The SGML source file, named either
file
or
file.sgml
FILES
Many files and executables in $LINUXDOCLIB and $LINUSDOCBIN are used.
