NAME
soelim - eliminate .so’s from nroff input
SYNOPSIS
soelim [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
soelim reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the textual inclusion implied by
nroff directives of the form
.so some_file
when they appear at the beginning of input lines. This is useful when using programs such as tbl(1) that do
not normally do this, allowing placement of individual tables or other text objects in separate files to be run
as a part of a large document.
An argument consisting of a single minus (-) is taken to be a file name corresponding to the standard
input.
Note that inclusion can be suppressed by using
instead of . at the start of the line as in:
’so /usr/share/lib/tmac/tmac.s
EXAMPLES
soelim is often used in a context similar to the following:
soelim exum?.n | tbl | nroff -mm | col | lp
WARNINGS
The format of the source commands must involve no strangeness — exactly one blank must precede and no
blanks follow the file name.
SEE ALSO
more(1), nroff(1), tbl(1).
