NAME

mvt − typeset view graphs and slides

SYNOPSIS

mvt [ option(s) ] [ file(s) ]

DESCRIPTION

This command is similar to mmt(1), except that it typesets its input with the mv macro package for view graphs and slides.  mvt has options to specify preprocessing by tbl(1) and/or pic(1) and/or eqn(1) and/or grap(1).  The proper pipelines and the required arguments and flags for troff(1) and for the macro packages are generated, depending on the options selected.

Options specific to mvt are given below.  Any other arguments or flags that you give mvt are passed to troff(1). Options can occur in any order, but they must appear before any file(s) arguments.  If you give no arguments, mvt prints a list of its options. 

−e invokes eqn(1); also causes eqn to read the /usr/pub/eqnchar file (see eqnchar(5)).

−t invokes tbl(1).

−p Invokes pic(1).

−g invokes grap(1), which in turn calls pic(1). 

−Ttty_type
creates output for troff device tty_type (see troff(1)).  The output is sent through the appropriate postprocessor (see daps(1). 

−Ddest directs the output to troff device dest (see troff(1)).  Supported values for dest are: 4014 (TEKTRONIX 4014 terminal via the tc(1) filter); and i10 (Imagen Imprint-10 laser printer via di10(1) filter.) 

−z Invokes no output filter to process or redirect the output of troff(1).

mvt reads the standard input when you specify − instead of any files.

HINT

Use the −olist option of troff(1) to specify ranges of pages to be output. Note, however, that if you call mvt with one or more of the −e, −t, −p, −g and − options, together with the −olist option of troff(1) you may cause a harmless “broken pipe” diagnostic if the last page of the document is not specified in list.
