MMT(CT) XENIX System V MMT(CT)
Name
mmt - Typesets documents.
Syntax
mmt [ options ] [ file ]
Description
mmt uses the MM macro package. It has options to specify
preprocessing by tbl(CT) and eqn(CT). The proper pipelines
and the required arguments and flags for troff(CT) and for
the macro packages are generated, depending on the options
selected.
The options are given below. Any other arguments or flags
(e.g., -rC3) are passed to troff(CT) or to the macro
package, as appropriate. Such options can occur in any
order, but they must appear before the files arguments. If
no arguments are given, these commands print a list of their
options.
-e Causes these commands to invoke eqn(CT).
-t Causes these commands to invoke tbl(CT).
-a Invokes the -a option of troff(CT).
-y Causes mmt to use the noncompacted version of the
macros (see mm(CT)).
When a dash (-) is specified, mmt reads the standard input
instead of any filenames.
Hints
Use the -olist option of troff(CT) to specify ranges of
pages to be output. Note, however, that these commands, if
invoked with one or more of the -e, -t, and - options,
together with the -olist option of troff(CT) may cause a
harmless ``broken pipe'' diagnostic if the last page of the
document is not specified in list.

Diagnostics
mmt: no input file None of the arguments is a readable
file and the command is not used as
a filter.

being used, or it is not attached
to the system as /dev/cat. In the
latter case, you must use the -t
