NAME

       yodlpost - Yodl post-processor

SYNOPSIS

       yodlpost [options] index yodlout [out]

DESCRIPTION

       The  Yodl  post	processor is used to solve references into the converted text, and to split (where appropriate) the converted Yodl text in
       parts. Some conversions do not require post-processing, such as LaTeX, but most do. Therefore, in most cases a Yodl conversion consists	of
       two phases:

       o      First, yodl(1) is called, producing a raw output file and an associated index file;

       o      Then,  yodlpost(1)  is  called, converting these two files into a final document.  Normally, yodl2...(1) scripts are used to perform
	      complete Yodl conversions.

OPTIONS

       -x ext: extension of the out-s if different from out's extension itself. If omitted, and out has no extension, ypp (Yodl Post Processor) is
       used.
