Miscellaneous yodl converters
Part of yodlconverters(1).
Usage
yodl2 [OPTION] ...
FILE
Overview
This manual page describes the various shell scripts that convert documents in the Yodl language to other formats. The basic converters are:
- o
-
yodl2html(1): converts to HTML, writes a file with the extension
.html.
- o
-
yodl2man(1): converts to nroff `man’ format, writes
.man. Can be further processed with e.g. nroff -Tascii -man file.man.
- o
-
yodl2latex(1): converts to LaTeX output, writes
.latex. Can be further processed with, e.g.,latexfile.latex.
- o
-
yodl2txt(1): converts to plain ASCII, writes
.txt. This is a very rudimentary converter, a last-resort.
Options
The options are identical to those of the yodl(1) program.
Additionally, the following options are available:
- o
-
`--no-warnings’:
By default the converters call yodl(1) using the `-w’ flag. The option `--no-warnings’ suppresses this flag.
- o
-
`--intermediate=<filename>’:
By default, files used for the communication between yodl and yodlpost are removed following the conversion. The `--intermediate=<filename>’ option may be provided to retain these files, called `<filename>’ and `<filename>.idx’.
Files
Each yodl2format converter requires a file format.yo in Yodl’s include path (e.g., `tmp/wip/macros’). This file is auto-loaded before `FILE’ (see the synopsis) is loaded, to make the conversion to format possible.
The output is written to one or more files having the extension .format.
