mancc - manual page compiler

SYNOPSIS

mancc [options] file ...

DESCRIPTION

manccis a man2html(1) frontend, calling the converter for each fileto produce a set of HTML files referencing each other if such referencesappear in the manual page.mancc can also maintain a list of source files (see option -l).

OPTIONS

The following options are available:

-a: recompile all source files found in .mancc.This is equivalent to specifying -rf.
-c: clear the .mancc filelist before compiling the files fromthe command line.
-f: ignore the file's timestamp when recompiling the files from .manccwith -r.
-l: store the source files in the file .mancc in the output directory.
-m: if a manual page file is not found try to use the system's manpage.
-o outputdir: store the HTML files in outputdir instead of the current directory.
-r: recompile the source file found in .mancc.
-u: compile file only if the corresponding HTML does not exist or thesource file is newer.

EXAMPLES

Read the following examples in a sequence:

mancc -l mancc.1 man2html.1

This compiles HTML files from the two manpages linking references frommancc(1) to man2html(1) and vice versa.

mancc -lm whatis.1

This adds the system's manpage for whatis(1) to the set of HTML files and

mancc -la

recompiles the manpages to create links for references to whatis(1)too.
