MMT(1) SysV MMT(1)
NAME
mmt, mvt - typeset documents, viewgraphs, and slides
SYNOPSIS
mmt [options] [files]
DESCRIPTION
Although very similar to mm(1), these two commands typeset their input
via troff(1), as opposed to formatting it via nroff(1). The mmt command
uses the MM macro package for its operations. The mvt command uses the
Macro Package for View Graphs and Slides. Preprocessing through tbl(1)
and eqn(1) is available for both. The proper pipelines and the required
arguments and flags for troff(1) and the appropriate macro packages are
generated, depending on the options selected.
Arguments or flags other than those given below are passed to troff(1) or
to the macro package, as appropriate. Such options can occur in any
order, but they must appear before the files argument. If no arguments
are given, mmt prints a list of its options.
OPTIONS
-e Invoke eqn(1) and cause it to read the /usr/pub/eqnchar file.
See eqnchar(5) for details concerning this file.
-t Invoke tbl(1).
-Tdest Create output for troff(1) device dest.
-Di10 Direct the output to the local Imagen Imprint-10 laser printer.
-a Invoke the -a option of troff(1).
-y Use the noncompacted version of the macros. This is the
default.
-z Invoke no output filter to process or redirect the output of
troff(1).
BUGS
If you specify a simple dash (-), -e option, and/or -t option along with
the -olist option of troff(1), a harmless "broken pipe" diagnostic may
result. This usually happens under these conditions if the last page of
the document is not specified in list.
DIAGNOSTICS
"m[mv]t: no input file" if none of the arguments is a readable file and
the command is not used as a filter.
Mvt is just a link to mmt.
