nroff - emulate nroff command with groff
nroff [ -h ] [ -i ] [ -mname ] [ -nnum ] [ -olist ] [ -rcn ] [ -Tname ] [ file... ]
The nroff script emulates the nroff command using groff. The -T option with an argument other than ascii, latin1, utf8, or cp1047 will be ignored. The -h option is equivalent to the grotty -h option. The -i, -n, -m, -o and -r options have the effect described in troff(1). In addition nroff silently ignores options of -e, -q or -s. Options -S (safer) and -U (unsafe) are passed to groff. -S is passed by default.
This shell script is basically intended for use with man(1), so warnings are suppressed. nroff-style character definitions (in the file tmac.tty-char) are also loaded to emulate unrepresentable glyphs.
