GROG(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   GROG(1)

NAME

       grog - guess options for groff command

SYNOPSIS

       grog [ -option ... ] [ files ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       grog  reads files and guesses which of the groff(1) options -e, -man, -me, -mm, -mom, -ms, -mdoc, -mdoc-old, -p, -R, -g, -G, -s, and -t are
       required for printing files, and prints the groff command including those options on the standard output.  A filename  of  -  is  taken	to
       refer  to  the  standard  input.  If no files are specified the standard input will be read.  Any specified options will be included in the
       printed command.  No space is allowed between options and their arguments.  The only options recognized are -C (which is also passed on) to
       enable compatibility mode, and -v to print the version number.

       For example,

	      `grog -Tdvi paper.ms`

       will guess the appropriate command to print paper.ms and then run it after adding the -Tdvi option.
