Source Code

;; Defined in /usr/src/emacs/lisp/woman.el.gz
;; Preprocessors
;; =============

;; This information is based on documentation for the man command by
;; Graeme W. Wilford <G.Wilford@ee.surrey.ac.uk>

;; First, the environment variable $MANROFFSEQ is interrogated, and if
;; not set then the initial line of the nroff file is parsed for a
;; preprocessor string. To contain a valid preprocessor string, the
;; first line must resemble
;;
;; '\" <string>
;;
;; where string can be any combination of the following letters that
;; specify the sequence of preprocessors to run before nroff or
;; troff/groff.  Not all installations will have a full set of
;; preprocessors.  Some of the preprocessors and the letters used to
;; designate them are: eqn (e), grap (g), pic (p), tbl (t), vgrind
;; (v), refer (r).  This option overrides the $MANROFFSEQ environment
;; variable.  zsoelim is always run as the very first preprocessor.
