soelim(1) User Commands soelim(1)NAMEsoelim - resolve and eliminate .so requests from nroff or troff input
SYNOPSISsoelim [filename]...
DESCRIPTIONsoelim reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the
textual inclusion implied by the nroff(1) directives of the form:
.so somefile
when they appear at the beginning of input lines.
This is useful as programs such as tbl(1) do not normally do this. It
allows the placement of individual tables in separate files to be run
as a part of a large document.
An argument consisting of − is taken to be a file name corresponding to
the standard input.
Inclusion can be suppressed by using a single quote (') instead of a
dot (.) that is,
' so /usr/share/lib/tmac/tmac.s
EXAMPLES
