NAME
       grog - guess options for groff command

SYNOPSIS
       grog [ -option ... ] [ files ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       grog  reads  files  and  guesses  which  of the groff(1)
       options -e, -man, -me, -mm, -mom, -ms, -mdoc, -mdoc-old,
       -p,  -R,  -g,  -G,  -s, and -t are required for printing
       files, and prints  the  groff  command  including  those
       options  on  the  standard  output.   A filename of - is
       taken to refer to the standard input.  If no  files  are
       specified  the  standard input will be read.  Any speci-
       fied options will be included in  the  printed  command.
       No space is allowed between options and their arguments.
       The only options recognized are -C (which is also passed
       on)  to  enable  compatibility mode, and -v to print the
       version number.

       For example,

              `grog -Tdvi paper.ms`

       will guess the appropriate command to print paper.ms and
       then run it after adding the -Tdvi option.
