MM( l)
causes mm to invoke neqn ; also causes neqn to read the
/usr/pub/eqnchar file (see eqnchar(5)).
causes mm to invoke tbl.
invokes the -e option of nroff.
sends a copy of the UNIX command line that mm produces to
invoke nroffto the standard error for debugging purposes.
As an example, assume that the shell variable $TERM is set in the
environment to 450. The two command lines below are then equivalent:
mm -t -rC3 -12 files
tbl files I nroff -mm -T450-12 -h -rC3
mm reads the standard input when you specify - instead of any files.
(Mentioning other files together with - leads to undesired results.) This
option allows you to use mm as a filter, for example:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
cat files I mm -
mm invokes the appropriate nroff output filter for tty_ type 470,
475, 478, 479, fx, ibm, and hpljr8.
mm invokes nroff with the -h flag unless tty type is 455or
hpljr8. With this flag, nroff assumes that the teilninal has tabs
set every 8 character positions.
Use the -olist option of nroff to specify ranges of pages to be
output Note, however, that if you invoke mm with one or more
of the -e, -t, and - options, together with the -olist option of
nroff, you may cause a harmless "broken pipe" diagnostic if you
do not specify the last page of the document in list.
If you use the -s option of nroff (to stop between pages of output),
use line-feed (rather than return or new-line) to restart the
output. The -s option of nroff does not work with the -< option
of mm, or if mm automatically invokes col (see -c option
above).
If you lie to mm about the kind of terminal its output will be
printed on, you will get (often subtle) garbage; however, if you
are redirecting output into a file, use the -T37 option, and then
use the appropriate terminal filter when you actually print that
file.

DIAGNOSTICS
"mm: no input file"
if none of the arguments is a readable file and you do not use
mm as a filter.
