.SH NAME
soelim - Cats files, interpreting nroff/troff-style file inclusion
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBsoelim\fR [ file or \fB-\fR ] ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIsoelim\fR concatenates the files together, recursively inserting
files referenced by the nroff/troff commands '.so', '.PS', and '.nx' in their
proper positions.
When interpreting a '.so' command, the named file is itself \fIsoelim\fRd
at that point, then processing resumes in the file that contained the '.so'
command.
Files referenced by '.nx' are treated the same, except that processing
stops after the file referenced by the '.nx' command.
.P
\fISoelim\fR is useful for providing input to an \fInroff/troff\fR(1)
preprocessor, such as \fInrpp\fR(1), since normally the files referenced by
the .so and .nx commands will not be seen by the preprocessor.
.P
The file name '-' means standard input.
Standard input will also be used if no arguments are given, unless
the input is connected to the terminal.
In the latter case, \fIsoelim\fR will print its usage instructions.
.SH FILES
.SH AUTHOR
J. Leth, IH 55414 6B-326, x6133 - His version was called "catso".
(Based on an earlier version by D. A. Spicer).
(Most recent version W. C. Stewart, HO 46133 2G218 x0705 - most of the
code is Leth's, with .PS stuff added.  Bill Joy wrote the original
"soelim" for Berkeley UNIX in 1977.)
.SH SEE ALSO
nroff/troff(1), mm(1), pic(1)
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
"Can't open [ .nx | .so ] file '<filename>'." -- the argument file, .so
file, or .nx file can't be read or does not exist.
.SH BUGS
Will not interpret commands imbedded in macros or conditionals, or commands
following a ';'.  The .so, .PS, or .nx macro must be followed by at
least one tab or space.
