     MMT(CT)                  XENIX System V                   MMT(CT)



     Name
          mmt - Typesets documents.

     Syntax
          mmt [ options ] [ file ]

     Description
          mmt uses the MM macro package.  It has options to specify
          preprocessing by tbl(CT) and eqn(CT).  The proper pipelines
          and the required arguments and flags for troff(CT) and for
          the macro packages are generated, depending on the options
          selected.

          The options are given below.  Any other arguments or flags
          (e.g., -rC3) are passed to troff(CT) or to the macro
          package, as appropriate.  Such 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
          options.

          -e        Causes these commands to invoke eqn(CT).

          -t        Causes these commands to invoke tbl(CT).

          -a        Invokes the -a option of troff(CT).

          -y        Causes mmt to use the noncompacted version of the
                    macros (see mm(CT)).

          When a dash (-) is specified, mmt reads the standard input
          instead of any filenames.

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

     Diagnostics
          mmt: no input file       None of the arguments is a readable
                                   file and the command is not used as
                                   a filter.

          typesetter busy          Either the typesetter is already
                                   being used, or it is not attached
                                   to the system as /dev/cat.  In the
                                   latter case, you must use the -t
