roff2dvi [ groffer_option ....] [--] [ filespec ....] roff2dvi -h|--help roff2dvi -v|--version The options -v and --version print the version information of the pro- gram to standard output and exit. The options -h and --help print a usage information of the program to standard output and stop the pro- gram instantly. All other options are assumed to be groffer options. They are inter- nally passed to groffer. They override the behavior of the program. The options are optional, they can be omitted. The filespec arguments correspond to the filespec arguments of groffer.
