+ - Fixed generataion of tbl-tables.
+1.19 12 Sep 2005 - Thanks to Aleksey Nogin <nogin@cs.caltech.edu> for
+ his bugfix of the problem he found:
+ "I came across another issue in the latest
+ latex2man - if the source file has "\verb+.foo+" in
+ it, then the ".foo" will be copied to the man page
+ verbatim and if it happens to be placed on the
+ beginning of a line, then troff will consider it to
+ be a command and not display it properly."
+1.18 20 July 2005 - latex2man.sty: Removed option pdf.
+1.17 14 Oct 2004 - Fixed order of gerating &amp; for HTML

+1.12.2 12 Mar 2001 - Fixed handling of conditional translation to LaTeX
+ (if in a IF .. ELSE .. END-IF, the condition

+ Now all %@% directives are written.)
+1.12.1 13 Sep 2000 - In \setDate and \setVersion a ~ is replaced by the
+ output specific blank.

+How to install latex2man:
+
+Requirements:
+ - Latex2man requires Perl version >= 5.0004_03.
+ - LaTeX2e
+ - 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.
+
+Installation:
+ - Edit the Makefile and set
+ BIN_DIR = $(HOME)/bin
+ MAN_DIR = $(HOME)/man
+ HTML_DIR = $(HOME)/public_html
+ INFO_DIR = $(HOME)/info
+ TEX_DIR = $(HOME)/tex/inputs
+ CFG_DIR = $(HOME)/tex/inputs
+ to your needs
+ - If you do not have pdflatex installed, remove in the "all" goal,
+ the sub goal "$(BASE).pdf".
+ - Edit latex2man and set in the first line
+ #!/usr/local/bin/perl
+ to the correct path
+ - make install
+
+That's it.
+
+The following files should be part of this package:
+ latex2man/latex2man
+ latex2man/latex2man.tex
+ latex2man/latex2man.cfg
+ latex2man/latex2man.sty

+ latex2man
+ =========
+
+Latex2man is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with LaTeX into
+the troff format understood by the UNIX man(1)-command.
+Alternatively HTML, TexInfo, or LaTeX code can be produced too.
+Output of parts of the text may be supressed using the conditional text
+feature (for this, LaTeX generation may be used).
+
+There is LaTeX package (latex2man.sty) used for writing the Man-page
+and a PERL script (latex2man) doing the actual translation.
+
+Requirements:
+ - Latex2man requires Perl version >= 5.0004_03.
+ - LaTeX2e
+
+VERSION: 1.23

+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
+

+latex2man
+[\fB\-t\fP\fItransfile\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)\&.
+.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\-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
+.br
+The following names are defined automatically:
+.RS
+.TP
+.B *
+\fB\-H\fP defines HTML
+.TP

+\fB\-T\fP defines TEXI

+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.

+.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.

+is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with
+LaTeXinto a format understood by the UNIX <em>man</em>(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).

+
+<tt>Latex2man</tt>
+reads the file <i>infile</i>
+and writes <i>outfile</i>.
+The
+input must be a LaTeX document using the <tt>latex2man</tt>
+LaTeXpackage.
+<tt>Latex2man</tt>
+translates that document into the <em>troff</em>(1)
+format using
+the <b>-man</b>
+macro package.
+<p>
+Using the <b>-H</b>
+option, HTML code can be produced, instead of
+<em>troff</em>(1).
+<p>
+Using the <b>-T</b>
+option, TexInfo code can be produced, instead of
+<em>troff</em>(1).
+<p>
+Using the <b>-M</b>
+option, <em>troff</em>(1)
+input is produced.
+<p>
+Using the <b>-L</b>
+option, LaTeX ouput can be produced, instead of
+<em>troff</em>(1).

+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 <i>char</i>
+specifies an alternative for that first
+character. Giving a blank to
+<b>-a</b>
+supresses the indentation of a line.<br>
+
+Note: only for the first \SP of a series that <i>char</i>
+is printed.

+<h2><a name="section_6">LaTeX commands</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The LaTeX package <tt>latex2man</tt>
+is used to write the Man-pages with
+LaTeX.Since we translate into other text formats, not all LaTeX stuff can
+be translated.
+<p>
+<h4><a name="section_7">Package Options</a></h4>
+
+The <tt>latex2man</tt>
+package accepts the following options:
+<p>
+<dl compact>
+<dt>fancy</dt>
+<dd> use the LaTeX package <tt>fancyheadings</tt>.
+</dd>
+<dt>fancyhdr</dt>
+<dd> use the LaTeX package <tt>fancyhdr</tt>.
+</dd>
+<dt>nofancy</dt>
+<dd> neither the LaTeX package <tt>fancyheadings</tt>
+nor
+<tt>fancyhdr</tt>
+are used.
+</dd>
+</dl>
+<p>
+The default option may be specified in the file <tt>latex2man.cfg</tt>.
+<p>
+<h4><a name="section_8">Package Specific Environments</a></h4>
+
+<p>
+The following environments are provided by the package:
+<dl compact>
+<dt>\begin{Name}{chapter}{name}{author}{info}{title} </dt>
+<dd> The
+<tt>Name</tt>
+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 <tt>Name</tt>
+environment must be the first
+environment in the document. Processing starts with this environment. Any
+text before this is ignored (exception: the <tt>setVersion</tt> and
+<tt>setDate</tt> commands). (Note: all arguments of \begin{Name} must
+be written on one line).
+</dd>
+<dt>\begin{Table}[width]{columns}</dt>
+<dd> The <tt>Table</tt>
+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:
+<p>
+<tt>\begin{Table}[2cm]{3}</tt> <br>
+
+<tt>Here &amp; am &amp; I \\\hline</tt> <br>
+
+<tt>A 1 &amp; A 2 &amp; A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5 \\</tt> <br>
+
+<tt>B 1 &amp; B 2 &amp; B 3 \\</tt> <br>
+
+<tt>\end{Table}</tt>
+<p>
+will be typeset as:
+<p>
+<table>
+<tr>
+<td>Here </td>
+<td> am </td>
+<td> I </td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td>A 1 </td>
+<td> A 2 </td>
+<td> A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5</td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td>B 1 </td>
+<td> B 2 </td>
+<td> B 3 </td>
+</tr>
+
+</table>
+<p>
+If no optional <em>width</em>
+argument is given, all entries are
+typeset left justified.
+The <em>width</em>
+is a length measured absolutly in <em>cm</em>.
+Processing with LaTeX a <tt>p{width}</tt> column is typeset
+as last column. The translation to <em>troff</em>(1)
+commands
+results in a <tt>lw(width)</tt>
+column specification. Translating
+to HTML and TexInfo ignores the <em>width</em>
+parameter.
+<p>
+<tt>\hline</tt> may be used.
+<p>
+If the Man-page is formatted with <em>troff</em>(1)
+and tables are used, the
+<em>tbl</em>(1)
+preprocessor should be called, usually by giving
+a <b>-t</b>
+to the call of <em>troff</em>(1).
+When viewing the generated
+manula page using <em>man</em>(1),
+<em>tbl</em>(1)
+is called automatically.
+</dd>
+<dt>\begin{Description}</dt>
+<dd> is the same as \begin{description}
+</dd>
+<dt>\begin{Description}[label]</dt>
+<dd> is similar to
+\begin{description}, but the item labels have at minimum the size
+of the (optional) word <em>label</em>.
+The difference is visible only
+in the DVI and PDF-output, not in the troff, TexInfo or HTML output.

+<h4><a name="section_13">Conditional Text</a></h4>
+
+<p>
+<tt>latex2man</tt>
+preprocesses the LaTeX input to allow text to be used
+conditionally. A special sort of LaTeX comment is used for that purpose.
+<ul compact>
+<li>%@% IF <em>condition</em> %@%
+</li>
+<li>%@% ELSE %@%
+</li>
+<li>%@% END-IF %@%
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+A line must contain only such a comment and nothing else. <em>condition</em>
+is
+a boolean expression containing ``names'' and operators. The names given with
+the <b>-C</b><i>name</i>
+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 <tt>IF/ELSE/END-IF</tt>
+may be nested. As boolean
+operators the following are allowed:
+<p>
+<table>
+<tr>
+<td>||</td>
+<td> boolean or </td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td>&amp;&amp; </td>
+<td> boolean and </td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td>! </td>
+<td> negation
+</table>
+<p>
+( and ) for grouping are allowed.
+<p>
+For example:<br>
+
+%@% IF abc %@%<br>
+
+<tt></tt>abc set<br>
+
+<tt></tt>%@% IF xyz %@%<br>
+
+<tt></tt>xyz set<br>
+
+<tt></tt>%@% ELSE %@%<br>
+
+<tt></tt>xyz NOT set<br>
+
+<tt></tt>%@% END-IF %@%<br>
+
+%@% ELSE %@%<br>
+
+<tt></tt>abc NOT set<br>
+
+<tt></tt>%@% IF xyz || !XYZ %@%<br>
+
+<tt></tt>xyz OR !XYZ set<br>
+
+<tt></tt>%@% ELSE %@%<br>
+
+<tt></tt>xyz OR !XYZ NOT set<br>

+\section{Description}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\Prog{Latex2man} reads the file \Arg{infile} and writes \Arg{outfile}. The
+input must be a \LaTeX\ document using the \Prog{latex2man} \LaTeX\ package.
+\Prog{Latex2man} translates that document into the \Cmd{troff}{1} format using
+the \Opt{-man} macro package.
+
+Using the \Opt{-H} option, HTML code can be produced, instead of
+\Cmd{troff}{1}.
+
+Using the \Opt{-T} option, TexInfo code can be produced, instead of
+\Cmd{troff}{1}.
+
+Using the \Opt{-M} option, \Cmd{troff}{1} input is produced.
+
+Using the \Opt{-L} option, \LaTeX\ ouput can be produced, instead of
+\Cmd{troff}{1}.
+
+
+\section{Options}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{Description}[\OptArg{-t}{transfile}]\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+\item[\OptArg{-t}{transfile}] Translation for user defined \LaTeX\ macros.
+\item[\Opt{-M}] Produce output suitable for the \Cmd{man}{1} command (default).
+\item[\Opt{-H}] Instead of producing output suitable for the \Cmd{man}{1}
+ command, HTML code is produced (despite the name of the command).
+\item[\Opt{-T}] Instead of producing output suitable for the \Cmd{man}{1}
+ command, TexInfo code is produced (despite the name of the command). The
+ generated \File{.texi}-file may be processed with \Cmd{makeinfo}{1}
+ (to produce an \File{.info}-file) which in turn may be installed using
+ \Cmd{install-info}{1}. The Info tags \verb+@dircategory+ and
+ \verb+@direntry+ are provided.
+\item[\Opt{-L}] The \LaTeX\ source is written to the \Arg{outfile}. This is
+ useful in conjunction with the \OptArg{-C}{name} option.
+\item[\OptArg{-C}{name}] Output the conditional text for \Arg{name}. If more
+ than one name should be given use quotes: \OptArg{-C}{'name1 name2 ...'}\\
+ The following names are defined automatically:
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item \Opt{-H} defines \texttt{HTML}
+ \item \Opt{-T} defines \texttt{TEXI}
+ \item \Opt{-M} defines \texttt{MAN}
+ \item \Opt{-L} defines \texttt{LATEX}
+ \end{itemize}
+ \item[\OptArg{-a}{char}] Is used only in conjunction with -T.\\
+ Background:\\
+ TexInfo ignores all blanks before the first word on a new line. In order
+ to produce some additional space before that word (using \Bs SP) some
+ character has to be printed before the additional space. By default this
+ is a . (dot). The \Arg{char} specifies an alternative for that first
+ character. Giving a blank to
+ \Opt{-a} supresses the indentation of a line.\\
+ Note: only for the first \Bs SP of a series that \Arg{char} is printed.
+\item[\Opt{-h}] Show a help text.
+\item[\Opt{-V}] Show version information.

+\section{\LaTeX\ commands}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+The \LaTeX\ package \texttt{latex2man} is used to write the Man-pages with
+\LaTeX. Since we translate into other text formats, not all \LaTeX\ stuff can
+be translated.
+
+\subsection{Package Options}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+The \texttt{latex2man} package accepts the following options:
+
+\begin{description}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+\item[fancy] use the \LaTeX\ package \texttt{fancyheadings}.
+\item[fancyhdr] use the \LaTeX\ package \texttt{fancyhdr}.
+\item[nofancy] neither the \LaTeX\ package \texttt{fancyheadings} nor
+ \texttt{fancyhdr} are used.
+\end{description}
+
+The default option may be specified in the file \texttt{latex2man.cfg}.
+
+\subsection{Package Specific Environments}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+The following environments are provided by the package:
+\begin{description}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+\item[\Bs begin\{Name\}\{chapter\}\{name\}\{author\}\{info\}\{title\} ] The
+ \texttt{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 \texttt{Name} environment must be the first
+ environment in the document. Processing starts with this environment. Any
+ text before this is ignored (exception: the \verb+setVersion+ and
+ \verb+setDate+ commands). (Note: all arguments of \Bs begin\{Name\} must
+ be written on one line).
+\item[\Bs begin\{Table\}\Lbr width\Rbr\{columns\}] The \texttt{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:
+
+ \verb+\begin{Table}[2cm]{3}+ \\
+ \verb+ Here & am & I \\\hline+ \\
+ \verb+ A 1 & A 2 & A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5 \\+ \\
+ \verb+ B 1 & B 2 & B 3 \\+ \\
+ \verb+\end{Table}+
+
+ will be typeset as:
+
+ \begin{Table}[2cm]{3}
+ Here & am & I \\\hline
+ A 1 & A 2 & A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5\\
+ B 1 & B 2 & B 3 \\
+ \end{Table}
+
+ If no optional \emph{width} argument is given, all entries are
+ typeset left justified.
+ The \emph{width} is a length measured absolutly in \emph{cm}.
+ Processing with \LaTeX\ a \verb+p{width}+ column is typeset
+ as last column. The translation to \Cmd{troff}{1} commands
+ results in a \texttt{lw(width)} column specification. Translating
+ to HTML and TexInfo ignores the \emph{width} parameter.
+
+ \verb+\hline+ may be used.
+
+ If the Man-page is formatted with \Cmd{troff}{1} and tables are used, the
+ \Cmd{tbl}{1} preprocessor should be called, usually by giving
+ a \Opt{-t} to the call of \Cmd{troff}{1}. When viewing the generated
+ manula page using \Cmd{man}{1}, \Cmd{tbl}{1} is called automatically.
+\item[\Bs begin\{Description\}] is the same as \Bs begin\{description\}
+\item[\Bs begin\{Description\}\Lbr label\Rbr] is similar to
+ \Bs begin\{description\}, but the item labels have at minimum the size
+ of the (optional) word \emph{label}. The difference is visible only
+ in the DVI and PDF-output, not in the troff, TexInfo or HTML output.
+ \begin{description}
+ \item[a] \Bar a \verb+\begin{description}+
+ \item[ab] \Bar ab
+ \item[abc] \Bar abc
+ \end{description}
+ \begin{Description}
+ \item[a] \Bar a \verb+\begin{Description}+
+ \item[ab] \Bar ab
+ \item[abc]\Bar abc
+ \end{Description}
+ \begin{Description}[ab]
+ \item[a] \Bar a \verb+\begin{Description}[aa]+
+ \item[ab] \Bar ab
+ \item[abc] \Bar abc
+ \end{Description}

+\subsection{Accepted Macros from the rcsinfo Package}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+

+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Accepted \LaTeX\ Macros}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+The following standard \LaTeX\ commands are accepted:
+\begin{description}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}

+ \emph{Description}, \emph{Options}, \emph{Files}, \emph{See Also},
+ \emph{Diagnostics}, \emph{Return Values}, \emph{Bugs}, \emph{Author},
+ \emph{version}, etc.
+
+ \emph{Synopsis} must be the first section after the \texttt{Name}
+ environment.
+
+ Note: Do not use \LaTeX-macros in section names.
+\item[\Bs subsection\{..\}] works as well as
+\item[\Bs subsubsection\{..\}] those.
+\item[\Bs emph\{..\}] \verb+\emph{example}+ is typeset as \emph{example}.
+\item[\Bs textbf\{..\}] \verb+\textbf{example}+ is typeset as \textbf{example}.
+\item[\Bs texttt\{..\}]\verb+\textt{example}+ is typeset as \texttt{example}.
+\item[\Bs underline\{..\}]\verb+\underline{example}+ is typeset as
+ \underline{example of underline}.

+\item[\Bs verb+..+] but only + is allowed as delimiter.
+\item[\$$<$\$] is typeset as $<$.
+\item[\$$>$\$] is typeset as $>$.
+\item[\$$<=$\$] is typeset as $<=$.
+\item[\$$>=$\$] is typeset as $>=$.
+\item[\$$=$\$] is typeset as $=$.
+\item[\$$<>$\$] is typeset as $<>$.
+\item[\$\Bs ge\$] is typeset as $\ge$.
+\item[\$\Bs le\$] is typeset as $\le$.

+\item[\$\Bs rightarrow\$] is typeset as $\rightarrow$.
+\item[\$\Bs Rightarrow\$] is typeset as $\Rightarrow$.
+\item[\Bs \{] is typeset as \{.
+\item[\Bs \}] is typeset as \}.
+\item[\Bs \$] is typeset as \$.
+\item[\Bs \Dollar] is typeset as \Dollar, should be used inside macro
+ arguments.
+\item[\Bs \_] is typeset as \_.
+\item[\Bs \&] is typeset as \&.
+\item[\Bs \#] is typeset as \#.
+\item[\Bs \%] is typeset as \%.
+\item[\Bs ,] is typeset as smaller blank -\,- (between the two -)
+\item[\Bs -] is used to mark hyphenation in a word.
+\item[\Bs \Bs] is typeset as a linebreak or marks the end of a column in the
+ \texttt{Table} environment.
+\item[\Bs ] (a \Bs\ followed by a blank) is typeset as a blank,

+\item[\Bs ss,\Bs"a, ...] \Bs ss = \ss, \Bs"a = \"a, \Bs"o = \"o, \Bs"u = \"u,
+ \Bs"A = \"A, \Bs"O = \"O, \Bs"U = \"U. It is allowed to surround these
+ macros in \{ and \} in all places, even inside other macros, e.g.
+ \begin{verbatim}
+ \textbf{\"a\"o\"u\"A\"O\"U\ss}
+ \textbf{\"a}{\"o}{\"u}{\"A}{\"O}{\"U}{\ss}}
+ \textbf{äöüÄÖÜß}
+ \end{verbatim}
+
+ \textbf{\"a\"o\"u\"A\"O\"U\ss {\"a}{\"o}{\"u}{\"A}{\"O}{\"U}{\ss} äöüÄÖÜß}
+
+ If these letters are used in their LATIN-1 8-bit coding, they are
+ translated into the equivalent letter of the desired output format.
+ E.g. \texttt{Ä} becomes \texttt{\&Auml}; in HTML and \texttt{@"A}
+ in texinfo.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Conditional Text}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+\Prog{latex2man} preprocesses the \LaTeX\ input to allow text to be used
+conditionally. A special sort of \LaTeX\ comment is used for that purpose.
+\begin{itemize}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+\item \Percent@\Percent\ IF \emph{condition} \Percent@\Percent
+\item \Percent@\Percent\ ELSE \Percent@\Percent
+\item \Percent@\Percent\ END-IF \Percent@\Percent
+\end{itemize}
+
+A line must contain only such a comment and nothing else. \emph{condition} is
+a boolean expression containing ``names'' and operators. The names given with
+the \OptArg{-C}{name} 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 \texttt{IF/ELSE/END-IF} may be nested. As boolean
+operators the following are allowed:
+
+\begin{Table}{2}
+\Bar\Bar & boolean or \\
+\&\& & boolean and \\
+! & negation
+\end{Table}
+
+( and ) for grouping are allowed.
+
+\noindent
+For example:\\
+\Percent@\Percent\ IF abc \Percent@\Percent\\
+\verb+ +abc set\\
+\verb+ +\Percent@\Percent\ IF xyz \Percent@\Percent\\
+\verb+ +xyz set\\
+\verb+ +\Percent@\Percent\ ELSE \Percent@\Percent\\
+\verb+ +xyz NOT set\\
+\verb+ +\Percent@\Percent\ END-IF \Percent@\Percent\\
+\Percent@\Percent\ ELSE \Percent@\Percent\\
+\verb+ +abc NOT set\\
+\verb+ +\Percent@\Percent\ IF xyz \Bar\Bar\ !XYZ \Percent@\Percent\\
+\verb+ +xyz OR !XYZ set\\
+\verb+ +\Percent@\Percent\ ELSE \Percent@\Percent\\
+\verb+ +xyz OR !XYZ NOT set\\
+\verb+ +\Percent@\Percent\ END-IF \Percent@\Percent\\
+\Percent@\Percent\ END-IF \Percent@\Percent
+
+\noindent
+Run this manual page through \Prog{latex2man} with e.g.\
+\OptArg{-C}{'abc XYZ'} and have a look to the generated output.
+(If simply running the \LaTeX-document\ through \LaTeX, all lines are shown in the
+.dvi file).\\
+%@% IF abc %@%
+ abc set\\
+ %@% IF xyz %@%
+ xyz set\\
+ %@% ELSE %@%
+ xyz NOT set\\
+ %@% END-IF %@%
+%@% ELSE %@%
+ abc NOT set\\
+ %@% IF xyz || !XYZ %@%
+ xyz OR !XYZ set\\
+ %@% ELSE %@%
+ xyz OR !XYZ NOT set
+ %@% END-IF %@%
+%@% END-IF %@%
+
+\noindent
+To check the conditional text feature, when \Prog{latex2man} is called with
+\begin{description}
+\item[\OptArg{-C}{HTML}] the lines 1a, 2b, 3b, and 4b;
+\item[\OptArg{-C}{TEXI}] the lines 1b, 2a, 3b, and 4b;
+\item[\OptArg{-C}{MAN}] the lines 1b, 2b, 3a, and 4b;
+\item[\OptArg{-C}{LATEX}] the lines 1b, 2b, 3b, and 4a;
+\item[calling \LaTeX\ without preprocessing] all lines
+\end{description}
+should be shown:
+
+%@% IF HTML %@%

+\subsection{Translation of User Defined Macros}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+The user macro translation file (given by the \oOptArg{-t}{transfile}) contains
+\Prog{Perl} commands specifying the translation of \LaTeX\ macros defined by
+the user. These macros may have none, one or two arguments. The following code
+is expected:
+
+\begin{itemize}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+\item Comments start with a \# up to the end of the line.
+\item For a macro \verb+\foo+ with no arguments, the following code must be
+ specified:
+ \begin{description}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+ \item[Translation to Man-Pages]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$manMacro{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \item[Translation to HTML]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$htmlMacro{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \item[Translation to TexInfo]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$texiMacro{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \end{description}
+
+ where \verb+...+ is the translation.
+
+\item For a macro \verb+\foo{..}+ with one argument, the following code must be
+ specified:
+ \begin{description}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+ \item[Translation to Man-Pages]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$manMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$manMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \item[Translation to HTML]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$htmlMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$htmlMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';+
+
+ \item[Translation to TexInfo]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$texiMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$texiMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \end{description}
+
+ where \verb+...+ is the translation. The \verb+1a+ code is used before the
+ argument, while \verb+1b+ is typeset after the argument is set.
+
+\item For a macro \verb+\foo{..}{..}+ with two arguments, the following code
+ must be specified:
+ \begin{description}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+ \item[Translation to Man-Pages]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$manMacro2a{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$manMacro2b{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$manMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \item[Translation to HTML]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$htmlMacro2a{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$htmlMacro2b{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$htmlMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \item[Translation to TexInfo]\TEXbr
+ \verb+$texiMacro2a{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$texiMacro2b{'foo'} = '...';+\\
+ \verb+$texiMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';+
+ \end{description}
+
+ where \verb+...+ is the translation. The \verb+2a+ code is used before the
+ first argument, \verb+2b+ between the two arguments and \verb+2c+ is
+ typeset after the second argument is set.
+\item The file \File{latex2man.trans} contains some example code.
+\end{itemize}
+

+\subsection{General Remarks}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+
+\begin{enumerate}\setlength{\itemsep}{0cm}
+\item Empty lines are typeset as paragraph separators.
+\item The arguments of the \LaTeX\ commands must not be split over several
+ lines.
+\item Do not nest calls to macros.
+\item 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.
+\item \Prog{latex2man} requires Perl version $>=$ 5.0004\_03.
+\item If you want to install the system with the distributed \File{Makefile},
+ you need GNU-\Prog{make}. If you don't have it, you should execute the
+ steps shown in the \File{Makefile} manually.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\subsection{Some Bug Fix Tests}

+Latex2man
+is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with
+LaTeXinto a format understood by the UNIX man(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).

+
+The following environments are provided by the package:
+@table @samp
+@item \begin@{Name@}@{chapter@}@{name@}@{author@}@{info@}@{title@}
+The
+@t{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 @t{Name}
+environment must be the first
+environment in the document. Processing starts with this environment. Any
+text before this is ignored (exception: the @t{setVersion} and
+@t{setDate} commands). (Note: all arguments of \begin@{Name@} must
+be written on one line).
+@item \begin@{Table@}[width]@{columns@}
+The @t{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:
+
+@t{\begin@{Table@}[2cm]@{3@}} @*
+
+@t{Here & am & I \\\hline} @*
+
+@t{A 1 & A 2 & A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5 \\} @*
+
+@t{B 1 & B 2 & B 3 \\} @*
+
+@t{\end@{Table@}}
+
+will be typeset as:
+
+@multitable @columnfractions 0.3 0.3 0.3
+@item Here @tab am @tab I
+
+@item
+A 1 @tab A 2 @tab A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5
+
+@item B 1 @tab B 2 @tab B 3
+
+@end multitable
+
+If no optional @emph{width}
+argument is given, all entries are
+typeset left justified.
+The @emph{width}
+is a length measured absolutly in @emph{cm}.
+Processing with LaTeX a @t{p@{width@}} column is typeset
+as last column. The translation to troff(1)
+commands
+results in a @t{lw(width)}
+column specification. Translating
+to HTML and TexInfo ignores the @emph{width}
+parameter.
+
+@t{\hline} may be used.
+
+If the Man-page is formatted with troff(1)
+and tables are used, the
+tbl(1)
+preprocessor should be called, usually by giving
+a -t
+to the call of troff(1).
+When viewing the generated
+manula page using man(1),
+tbl(1)
+is called automatically.
+@item \begin@{Description@}
+is the same as \begin@{description@}
+@item \begin@{Description@}[label]
+is similar to
+\begin@{description@}, but the item labels have at minimum the size
+of the (optional) word @emph{label}.
+The difference is visible only
+in the DVI and PDF-output, not in the troff, TexInfo or HTML output.

+
+NAME
+ Latex2man is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with LaTeX-
+ into a format understood by the UNIX man(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).
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ latex2man [-ttransfile] [-HMTL] [-h] [-V] [-Cname] [-achar] infile out-
+ file
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Latex2man reads the file infile and writes outfile. The input must be
+ a LaTeX document using the latex2man LaTeXpackage. Latex2man trans-
+ lates that document into the troff(1) format using the -man macro pack-
+ age.
+
+ Using the -H option, HTML code can be produced, instead of troff(1).
+
+ Using the -T option, TexInfo code can be produced, instead of troff(1).
+
+ Using the -M option, troff(1) input is produced.
+
+ Using the -L option, LaTeX ouput can be produced, instead of troff(1).
+
+
+OPTIONS
+ -ttransfile
+ Translation for user defined LaTeX macros.
+
+ -M Produce output suitable for the man(1) command (default).
+
+ -H Instead of producing output suitable for the man(1) command,
+ HTML code is produced (despite the name of the command).
+
+ -T Instead of producing output suitable for the man(1) command,
+ TexInfo code is produced (despite the name of the command). The
+ generated .texi-file may be processed with makeinfo(1) (to pro-
+ duce an .info-file) which in turn may be installed using
+ install-info(1). The Info tags @dircategory and @direntry are
+ provided.
+
+ -L The LaTeX source is written to the outfile. This is useful in
+ conjunction with the -Cname option.
+
+ -Cname Output the conditional text for name. If more than one name
+ should be given use quotes: -C'name1 name2 ...'
+ The following names are defined automatically:
+
+ * -H defines HTML
+
+ * -T defines TEXI
+
+ * -M defines MAN
+
+ * -L defines LATEX
+
+
+ -achar Is used only in conjunction with -T.
+ Background:
+ 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 addi-
+ tional space. By default this is a . (dot). The char specifies
+ an alternative for that first character. Giving a blank to -a
+ supresses the indentation of a line.
+ Note: only for the first \SP of a series that char is printed.
+
+ -h Show a help text.
+
+ -V Show version information.
+
+
+FILES
+ latex2man.tex
+ The LaTeX file containing this Man-page.
+
+ latex2man.sty
+ The LaTeX package defining the environments and commands.
+
+ latex2man.cfg
+ The configuration file for Latex2man LaTeX-package.

+
+
+SEE ALSO
+ LaTeX,TexInfo, troff(1), groff(1), makeinfo(1).
+
+
+LaTeX COMMANDS
+ 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.
+
+
+ PACKAGE OPTIONS
+ The latex2man package accepts the following options:
+
+
+ fancy use the LaTeX package fancyheadings.
+
+ fancyhdr
+ use the LaTeX package fancyhdr.
+
+ nofancy
+ neither the LaTeX package fancyheadings nor fancyhdr are used.
+
+ The default option may be specified in the file latex2man.cfg.
+
+
+ PACKAGE SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTS
+ The following environments are provided by the package:
+
+ \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).
+
+ \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:
+
+ \begin{Table}[2cm]{3}
+ Here & am & I \\\hline
+ A 1 & A 2 & A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5 \\
+ B 1 & B 2 & B 3 \\
+ \end{Table}
+
+ will be typeset as:
+
+
+ Here am I
+ ----------------------
+ A 1 A 2 A 3 1 2
+ 3 4 5 A
+ 3 1 2 3
+ 4 5
+ B 1 B 2 B 3
+
+ If no optional width argument is given, all entries are typeset left
+ justified. The width is a length measured absolutly in cm. Processing
+ with LaTeX a p{width} column is typeset as last column. The translation
+ to troff(1) commands results in a lw(width) column specification.
+ Translating to HTML and TexInfo ignores the width parameter.
+
+ \hline may be used.
+
+ If the Man-page is formatted with troff(1) and tables are used, the
+ tbl(1) preprocessor should be called, usually by giving a -t to the
+ call of troff(1). When viewing the generated manula page using man(1),
+ tbl(1) is called automatically.
+
+ \begin{Description}
+ is the same as \begin{description}
+
+ \begin{Description}[label]
+ is similar to \begin{description}, but the item labels have at
+ minimum the size of the (optional) word label. The difference
+ is visible only in the DVI and PDF-output, not in the troff,
+ TexInfo or HTML output.
+
+ a |a \begin{description}
+
+ ab |ab
+
+ abc |abc
+
+
+ a |a \begin{Description}
+
+ ab |ab
+
+ abc |abc
+
+
+ a |a \begin{Description}[aa]
+
+ ab |ab
+
+ abc |abc
+
+
+
+ ACCEPTED LaTeX ENVIRONMENTS
+ The following environments are accepted:
+
+ * description
+
+ * enumerate
+
+ * itemize
+
+ * verbatim
+
+ * center
+
+ They may be nested:
+
+ * Itemize and nested center:
+ A centered line.
+ Another centered line.
+
+
+ * Another item an nested enumerate
+
+ 1. a
+
+ 2. b

+
+ \ss,\"a, ...
+ \ss = ß, \"a= ä, \"o= ö, \"u= ü, \"A= Ä, \"O= Ö, \"U= Ü. It is
+ allowed to surround these macros in { and } in all places, even
+ inside other macros, e.g.
+ \textbf{\"a\"o\"u\"A\"O\"U\ss}
+ \textbf{\"a}{\"o}{\"u}{\"A}{\"O}{\"U}{\ss}}
+ \textbf{äöüÄÖÜß}
+
+
+ äöüÄÖÜß äöüÄÖÜß äöüÄÖÜß
+
+ If these letters are used in their LATIN-1 8-bit coding, they are
+ translated into the equivalent letter of the desired output format.
+ E.g. Ä becomes &Auml; in HTML and @"A in texinfo.
+
+
+ CONDITIONAL TEXT
+ latex2man preprocesses the LaTeX input to allow text to be used condi-
+ tionally. A special sort of LaTeX comment is used for that purpose.
+
+ * %@% IF condition %@%
+
+ * %@% ELSE %@%
+
+ * %@% END-IF %@%
+
+ A line must contain only such a comment and nothing else. condition is
+ a boolean expression containing ``names'' and operators. The names
+ given with the -Cname 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:
+
+
+
+ ( and ) for grouping are allowed.
+
+ For example:
+ %@% IF abc %@%
+ abc set
+ %@% IF xyz %@%
+ xyz set
+ %@% ELSE %@%
+ xyz NOT set
+ %@% END-IF %@%
+ %@% ELSE %@%
+ abc NOT set
+ %@% IF xyz || !XYZ %@%
+ xyz OR !XYZ set
+ %@% ELSE %@%
+ xyz OR !XYZ NOT set
+ %@% END-IF %@%
+ %@% END-IF %@%
+
+ Run this manual page through latex2man with e.g. -C'abc XYZ' and have
+ a look to the generated output. (If simply running the LaTeX-document
+ through LaTeX,all lines are shown in the .dvi file).
+ abc NOT set
+ xyz OR !XYZ set
+
+ To check the conditional text feature, when latex2man is called with
+
+ -CHTML the lines 1a, 2b, 3b, and 4b;
+
+ -CTEXI the lines 1b, 2a, 3b, and 4b;
+
+ -CMAN the lines 1b, 2b, 3a, and 4b;
+
+ -CLATEX
+ the lines 1b, 2b, 3b, and 4a;
+
+ calling LaTeX without preprocessing
+ all lines
+
+ should be shown:
+
+ 1b. The HTML conditional was not set.
+
+ 2b. The TEXI conditional was not set.
+
+ 3a. This text occurs only when viewing the MAN output
+
+ 4b. The LATEX conditional was not set.
+
+
+ TRANSLATION OF USER DEFINED MACROS
+ The user macro translation file (given by the [-ttransfile]) contains
+ Perl commands specifying the translation of LaTeX macros defined by the
+ user. These macros may have none, one or two arguments. The following
+ code is expected:
+
+
+ * Comments start with a # up to the end of the line.
+
+ * For a macro \foo with no arguments, the following code must be
+ specified:
+
+ Translation to Man-Pages
+ $manMacro{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ Translation to HTML
+ $htmlMacro{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ Translation to TexInfo
+ $texiMacro{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ where ... is the translation.
+
+
+ * For a macro \foo{..} with one argument, the following code must
+ be specified:
+
+ Translation to Man-Pages
+ $manMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';
+ $manMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ Translation to HTML
+ $htmlMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';
+ $htmlMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';
+
+
+ Translation to TexInfo
+ $texiMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';
+ $texiMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ where ... is the translation. The 1a code is used before the
+ argument, while 1b is typeset after the argument is set.
+
+
+ * For a macro \foo{..}{..} with two arguments, the following code
+ must be specified:
+
+ Translation to Man-Pages
+ $manMacro2a{'foo'} = '...';
+ $manMacro2b{'foo'} = '...';
+ $manMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ Translation to HTML
+ $htmlMacro2a{'foo'} = '...';
+ $htmlMacro2b{'foo'} = '...';
+ $htmlMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ Translation to TexInfo
+ $texiMacro2a{'foo'} = '...';
+ $texiMacro2b{'foo'} = '...';
+ $texiMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';
+
+ where ... is the translation. The 2a code is used before the
+ first argument, 2b between the two arguments and 2c is typeset
+ after the second argument is set.
+
+ * The file latex2man.trans contains some example code.
+
+
+ VERBATIM ENVIRONMENT

+
+
+ GENERAL REMARKS
+ 1. Empty lines are typeset as paragraph separators.
+
+ 2. The arguments of the LaTeX commands must not be split over sev-
+ eral lines.
+
+ 3. Do not nest calls to macros.
+
+ 4. Except the mentioned environment and macros, the usage of other
+ LaTeX environments or macros are not translated. Their usage
