Display roff files, standard input, and/or Unix manual pages with a X
Window viewer or in several text modes.  All input is decompressed
on-the-fly with all formats that gzip can handle.

"filespec" is one of
  "filename"       name of a readable file
  "-"              for standard input
  "man:name.n"     man page "name" in section "n"
  "man:name"       man page "name" in first section found
  "name.n"         man page "name" in section "n"
  "name"           man page "name" in first section found
and some more (see groffer(1) for details).

-h --help         print this usage message.
-Q --source       output as roff source.
-T --device=name  pass to groff using output device "name".
-v --version      print version information.
-V                display the groff execution pipe instead of formatting.
-X                display with "gxditview" using groff -X.
-Z --ditroff --intermediate-output
                  generate groff intermediate output without
                  post-processing and viewing, like groff -Z.
All other short options are interpreted as "groff" formatting options.

The most important groffer long options are

--apropos=name    start man's "apropos" program for "name".
--apropos-data=name
                  "apropos" for "name" in man's data sections 4, 5, 7.
--apropos-devel=name
                  "apropos" for "name" in development sections 2, 3, 9.
--apropos-progs=name
                  "apropos" for "name" in man's program sections 1, 6, 8.
--auto            choose mode automatically from the default mode list.
--default         reset all options to the default value.
--default-modes=mode1,mode2,...
                  set sequence of automatically tried modes.
--dvi             display in a viewer for TeX device independent format.
--dvi-viewer=prog choose the viewer program for dvi mode.
--groff           process like groff, disable viewing features.
--help            display this helping output.
--html            display in a web browser.
--html-viewer=program
                  choose the web browser for html mode.
--man             check file parameters first whether they are man pages.
--mode=auto|dvi|groff|html|pdf|ps|source|text|tty|www|x|X
                  choose display mode.
--no-man          disable man-page facility.
--no-special      disable --all, --apropos*, and --whatis
--pager=program   preset the paging program for tty mode.
--pdf             display in a PDF viewer.
--pdf-viewer=prog choose the viewer program for pdf mode.
--ps              display in a Postscript viewer.
--ps-viewer=prog  choose the viewer program for ps mode.
--shell=program   specify a shell under which to run groffer2.sh.
--text            output in a text device without a pager.
--tty             display with a pager on text terminal even when in X.
--tty-viewer=prog select a pager for tty mode; same as --pager.
--whatis          display the file name and description of man pages
--www             same as --html.
--www-viewer=prog same as --html-viewer
--x --X           display with "gxditview" using an X* device.
--x-viewer=prog   choose viewer program for x mode (X mode).
--X-viewer=prog   same as "--xviewer".

Development options that are not useful for normal usage:
--debug, --debug-all, --debug-keep, --debug-lm, --debug-params,
--debug-shell, --debug-stacks, --debug-tmpdir, --debug-user,
--do-nothing, --print=text

Viewer programs for the different modes that run on the terminal:
--dvi-viewer-tty=prog, --html-viewer-tty=prog, --pdf-viewer-tty=prog,
--ps-viewer-tty=prog, --tty-viewer-tty, --X-viewer-tty=prog,
--x-viewer-tty=prog, --www-viewer-tty=prog

The usual X Windows toolkit options transformed into GNU long options:
--background=color, --bd=size, --bg=color, --bordercolor=color,
--borderwidth=size, --bw=size, --display=Xdisplay, --fg=color,
--fn=font, --font=font, --foreground=color, --geometry=geom, --iconic,
--resolution=dpi, --rv, --title=text, --xrm=resource

Long options of GNU "man":
--all, --ascii, --ditroff, --extension=suffix, --locale=language,
--local-file=name, --location, --manpath=dir1:dir2:...,
--sections=s1:s2:..., --systems=s1,s2,..., --where, ...
