<font class="progname">Latex2man</font>
is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with
LaTeXinto a format understood by the UNIX <font class="commandname">man</font>(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).

<font class="progname">Latex2man</font>
reads the file <font class="argstyle">infile</font>
and writes <font class="argstyle">outfile</font>.
The
input must be a LaTeX document using the <font class="progname">latex2man</font>
LaTeXpackage.
<font class="progname">Latex2man</font>
translates that document into the <font class="commandname">troff</font>(1)
format using
the <font class="optstyle">-man</font>
macro package.
<p>
Using the <font class="optstyle">-H</font>
option, HTML code can be produced, instead of
<font class="commandname">troff</font>(1).
With this option you can, optionally, specify a <font class="argstyle">CSSfile</font>
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.
<p>
Using the <font class="optstyle">-T</font>
option, TexInfo code can be produced, instead of
<font class="commandname">troff</font>(1).
<p>
Using the <font class="optstyle">-M</font>
option, <font class="commandname">troff</font>(1)
input is produced.
<p>
Using the <font class="optstyle">-L</font>
option, LaTeX ouput can be produced, instead of
<font class="commandname">troff</font>(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 <font class="argstyle">char</font>
specifies an alternative for that first
character. Giving a blank to
<font class="optstyle">-a</font>
supresses the indentation of a line.<br>
Note: only for the first \SP of a series that <font class="argstyle">char</font>
is printed.

<h2 class="sectionname"><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 class="subsectionname"><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 class="subsectionname"><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 & am & I \\\hline</tt> <br>
<tt>A 1 & A 2 & A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5 \\</tt> <br>
<tt>B 1 & B 2 & B 3 \\</tt> <br>
<tt>\end{Table}</tt>
<p>
will be typeset as:
<p>
<table summary="table" class="tablestyle">
<tr class="rowstyle">
<td class="cellstyle">Here </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> am </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> I </td>
</tr>
<tr class="rowstyle">
<td class="cellstyle">A 1 </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> A 2 </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> A 3 1 2 3 4 5 A 3 1 2 3 4 5</td>
</tr>
<tr class="rowstyle">
<td class="cellstyle">B 1 </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> B 2 </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> 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 <font class="commandname">troff</font>(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 <font class="commandname">troff</font>(1)
and tables are used, the
<font class="commandname">tbl</font>(1)
preprocessor should be called, usually by giving
a <font class="optstyle">-t</font>
to the call of <font class="commandname">troff</font>(1).
When viewing the generated
manula page using <font class="commandname">man</font>(1),
<font class="commandname">tbl</font>(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.
<dl compact>

<dd> \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.
<pre>
\textbf{\"a\"o\"u\"A\"O\"U\ss}
\textbf{\"a}{\"o}{\"u}{\"A}{\"O}{\"U}{\ss}}
\textbf{äöüÄÖÜß}
</pre>
<p>
<strong>äöüÄÖÜß äöüÄÖÜß äöüÄÖÜß</strong>
<p>
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. <tt>Ä</tt>
becomes <tt>&Auml</tt>;
in HTML and <tt>@"A</tt>
in texinfo.

<h4 class="subsectionname"><a name="section_13">Conditional Text</a></h4>
<p>
<font class="progname">latex2man</font>
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 <font class="optstyle">-C</font><font class="argstyle">name</font>
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 summary="table" class="tablestyle">
<tr class="rowstyle">
<td class="cellstyle">||</td>
<td class="cellstyle"> boolean or </td>
</tr>
<tr class="rowstyle">
<td class="cellstyle">&& </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> boolean and </td>
</tr>
<tr class="rowstyle">
<td class="cellstyle">! </td>
<td class="cellstyle"> 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>
<tt></tt>%@% END-IF %@%<br>
%@% END-IF %@%
<p>
Run this manual page through <font class="progname">latex2man</font>
with e.g.
<font class="optstyle">-C</font><font class="argstyle">'abc XYZ'</font>
and have a look to the generated output.
(If simply running the LaTeX-document through LaTeX,all lines are shown in the
.dvi file).<br>
abc NOT set<br>

<h4 class="subsectionname"><a name="section_14">Translation of User Defined Macros</a></h4>
<p>
The user macro translation file (given by the [<font class="optstyle">-t</font><font class="argstyle">transfile</font>])
contains
<font class="progname">Perl</font>
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:
<p>
<ul compact>
<li>Comments start with a # up to the end of the line.
</li>
<li>For a macro <tt>\foo</tt> with no arguments, the following code must be
specified:
<dl compact>
<dt>Translation to Man-Pages</dt>
<dd>
<tt>$manMacro{'foo'} = '...';</tt>
</dd>
<dt>Translation to HTML</dt>
<dd>
<tt>$htmlMacro{'foo'} = '...';</tt>
</dd>
<dt>Translation to TexInfo</dt>
<dd>
<tt>$texiMacro{'foo'} = '...';</tt>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
where <tt>...</tt> is the translation.
<p>
</li>
<li>For a macro <tt>\foo{..}</tt> with one argument, the following code must be
specified:

<tt>$texiMacro1a{'foo'} = '...';</tt><br>
<tt>$texiMacro1b{'foo'} = '...';</tt>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
where <tt>...</tt> is the translation. The <tt>1a</tt> code is used before the
argument, while <tt>1b</tt> is typeset after the argument is set.
<p>
</li>
<li>For a macro <tt>\foo{..}{..}</tt> with two arguments, the following code
must be specified:
<dl compact>

<tt>$texiMacro2c{'foo'} = '...';</tt>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
where <tt>...</tt> is the translation. The <tt>2a</tt> code is used before the
first argument, <tt>2b</tt> between the two arguments and <tt>2c</tt> is
typeset after the second argument is set.
