NAME

       nroff - emulate nroff command with groff

SYNOPSIS

       nroff [ -h ] [ -i ] [ -mname ] [ -nnum ] [ -olist ] [ -p ] [ -rcn ] [ -S ] [ -t ] [ -Tname ] [ -U ] [ -v ] [ file ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  nroff  script emulates the nroff command using groff.  Only ascii, latin1, utf8, and cp1047 are valid arguments for the -T option.	If
       an invalid or no -T option is given, nroff checks the current locale to select a default output device.	It first tries the locale program,
       then the environment variables LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, and LANG, and finally the LESSCHARSET environment variable.

       The  -h	and -c options are equivalent to grotty's options -h (using tabs in the output) and -c (using the old output scheme instead of SGR
       escape sequences).  The -C, -i, -n, -m, -o, and -r options have the effect described in troff(1).  In addition, nroff silently ignores  the
       options	-e, -q, and -s (which are not implemented in troff).  Options -p (pic), -t (tbl), -S (safer), and -U (unsafe) are passed to groff.
       -v shows the version number.

ENVIRONMENT

       GROFF_BIN_PATH
	      A colon separated list of directories in which to search for the groff executable before searching in PATH.  If unset, `/usr/bin' is
	      used.

NOTES

       This  shell  script  is basically intended for use with man(1), so warnings are suppressed.  nroff-style character definitions (in the file
       tty-char.tmac) are also loaded to emulate unrepresentable glyphs.
