mmt(1)                                                     mmt(1)



     NAME
          mmt, mvt - typeset documents, view graphs, and slides

     SYNOPSIS
          mmt [-e] [-t] [-Tst] [-a] [-y] [files]

          mvt [-e] [-t] [-Tst] [-a] [-y] [files]

     DESCRIPTION
          These two commands are very similar to mm(1), except that
          they both typeset their input via troff(1), as opposed to
          formatting it via troff; mmt uses the mm macro package,
          while mvt uses the Macro Package for View Graphs and Slides.
          These two commands have flag options to specify
          preprocessing by tbl(1) and/or eqn(1).  The proper pipelines
          and the required arguments and flags for troff(1) and for
          the macro packages are generated, depending on the flag
          options selected.

          Options are given below.  Any other arguments or flags
          (e.g., -rC3) are passed to troff(1) or to the macro package,
          as appropriate.  Such flag options can occur in any order,
          but they must appear before the files arguments.  If no
          arguments are given, these commands print a list of their
          flag options.

          -e    Causes these commands to invoke eqn(1); also causes
                eqn to read the /usr/pub/eqnchar file (see
                eqnchar(5)).
          -t    Causes these commands to invoke tbl(1).
          -a    Invokes the -a flag option of troff(1).
          -y    Causes mmt to use the non-compacted version of the
                macros (see mm(5)).  No effect for mvt.

          These commands read the standard input when - is specified
          instead of any filenames.

          mvt is just a link to mmt.

     HINT
          Use the -olist flag option of troff(1) to specify ranges of
          pages to be output.  Note, however, that these commands, if
          invoked with one or more of the -e, -t, and - flag options,
          together with the -olist flag option of troff(1) may cause a
          harmless broken pipe diagnostic if the last page of the
          document is not specified in list.

     EXAMPLE
               mmt -t -rC3 -12 -Tst file

          is equivalent to

               tbl file | troff -cm -Tst -12 -h -rC3

          readable file and the command is not used as a filter.
