NAME

6       soelim - resolve and eliminate .so requests from nroff or troff input
7

SYNOPSIS

9       soelim [filename]...

DESCRIPTION

13       soelim reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the
14       textual inclusion implied by the nroff(1) directives of the form:
15
16         .so somefile
17
18
19
20
21       when they appear at the beginning of input lines.
22
23
24       This is useful as programs such as tbl(1) do not normally do  this.  It
25       allows  the  placement of individual tables in separate files to be run
26       as a part of a large document.
27
28
29       An argument consisting of − is taken to be a file name corresponding to
30       the standard input.
31
32
33       Inclusion  can  be  suppressed by using a single quote (') instead of a
34       dot (.) that is,
35
36          ' so /usr/share/lib/tmac/tmac.s
