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

SYNOPSIS
       soelim [filename]...

DESCRIPTION
       soelim reads the specified files or the standard input and performs the
       textual inclusion implied by the nroff(1) directives of the form:

	 .so somefile

       when they appear at the beginning of input lines.

       This is useful as programs such as tbl(1) do not normally do  this.  It
       allows  the  placement of individual tables in separate files to be run
       as a part of a large document.

       An argument consisting of − is taken to be a file name corresponding to
       the standard input.

       Inclusion  can  be  suppressed by using a single quote (') instead of a
       dot (.) that is,

	  ' so /usr/share/lib/tmac/tmac.s

EXAMPLES
       Example 1 Using the soelim Command

       The following is an example of the soelim command:

	 example% soelim exum?.n | tbl | nroff -ms | col | lpr
