SUBJ(l) SUBJ(l)
NAME
subj -generate a list of subjects from a document
SYNOPSIS
subj files
DESCRIPTION
subj searches files for subjects that might be appropriate in a subjectpage
index and prints the list of subjects on the standard output The
document should contain formatting commands (from nroff(l), trojf, and
mm(l) among others) to make the best use of subj.
SEE ALSO
man(l), mm(l), ndx(l), and nroff( l).
WARNINGS
subj selects sequences of capitalized words as subjects except the first
word in each sentence. Thus, if a sentence begins with a proper noun, the
capitalization rule will not select this word as a subject On the other
hand, since each sentence is expected to begin on a newline, the first
word of a sentence that begins in the middle of a line may be erroneously
selected.
BUGS
The output of subj may not be appropriate for your needs and should be
edited accordingly.
subj also selects as subjects modifier-noun sequences from the abstract,
headings, and topic sentences (the first sentence in each paragraph), and
occasionally a word is incorrectly categorized as a noun or adjective.
