MMT ( l ) MMT ( l )
NAME
mmt, mvt - typeset documents, view graphs, and slides
SYNOPSIS
mmt [ options I [ files I
mvt [ options I [ files I
DESCRIPTION
These two commands are very similar to mm(1), except that they
both typeset their input via troff (not included on the UNIX PC),
as opposed to formatting it via nroff; mmt uses the MM macro
package, while mvt uses the Macro Package for View Graphs and
Slides. These two commands have options to specify preprocessing
by tbl(1) and/or eqn(1). The proper pipelines and the
required arguments and flags for troff and for the macro packages
are generated, depending on the options selected.
Options are given below. Any other arguments or flags (e.g.,
-rC3) are passed to troffor 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(1); also causes
eqn to read the /usrfpubfeqncha.r file (see
eqnchar(5)).
-t Causes these commands to invoke tbl(1).
-Tst Directs the output to the MH STARE facility.
-Tvp Directs the output to a Versatec printer; this option is
not available at all UNIX sites.
-T4014 Directs the output to a Tektronix 4014 terminal via
the tc(1) filter.
-Ttek Same as -T4014.
Invokes the -a. option of troff.
-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 file names.
Mvt is just a link to mmt.
illNT
Use the -olist option of troff 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 may cause a harmless "broken pipe" diagnostic if
the last page of the document is not specified in list .

and the command is not used as a filter.
