NAME
       zsoelim - satisfy .so requests in roff input

SYNOPSIS
       zsoelim [-CVh] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
       zsoelim parses file arguments, or if none are specified, its standard input for lines of the form:

       .so <filename>

       These  requests are replaced by the contents of the filename specified.	If the request cannot be met, zsoelim looks for filename.ext where
       .ext can be one of .gz, .Z or .z.  Other extension types may be supported depending upon compile time options.  If the request can  be  met
       by a compressed file, this file is decompressed using an appropriate decompressor and its output is used to satisfy the request.

       Traditionally,  soelim programs were used to allow roff preprocessors to be able to preprocess the files referred to by the requests.  This
       particular version was written to circumvent problems created by support for compressed manual pages.

OPTIONS
       -C, --compatible
	      This flag is available for compatibility with other soelim programs.  Its use is to enable .so requests followed by something  other
	      than whitespace.	As this is already the default behaviour, it is ignored.

       -h, --help
	      Print a help message and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Display version information.
