<i>unroff
|
||
|
|
</i>is a programmable, extensible troff translator that is useful for
|
||
|
|
converting documents with embedded troff markup into another
|
||
|
|
format.<tt> </tt>
|
||
|
|
Although
|
||
|
|
<i>unroff
|
||
|
|
</i>has been designed with higher-level, structure-oriented target
|
||
|
|
languages (such as SGML) in mind, it fully supports all constructs
|
||
|
|
and idiosyncrasies of ordinary troff, so that even low-level
|
||
|
|
formatting requests can be handled correctly if desired.<tt> </tt>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
 <tt> </tt> <tt> </tt> <tt> </tt>Translation rules for a specific output format and knowledge about
|
||
|
|
existing troff macro packages are not hard-wired in
|
||
|
|
<i>unroff</i>,
|
||
|
|
instead, the translation is controlled by a user-supplied set
|
||
|
|
of procedures written in the
|
||
|
|
<a href="http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/scheme-home.html"><i>Scheme</i> programming language</a>.<tt> </tt>
|
||
|
|
Interpretation of the procedures is facilitated by a full Scheme
|
||
|
|
interpreted embedded in
|
||
|
|
<i>unroff</i>.<tt> </tt>
|
||
|
|
This manual describes the Scheme primitives provided by
|
||
|
|
<i>unroff
|
||
|
|
</i>that can be used to customize the translation rules implemented
|
||
|
|
by existing back-ends and to write new ones for new output formats.<tt> </tt>
