NAME

     mkd2man — convert a markdown document into an mdoc manual page

SYNOPSIS

     mkd2man [-h] [-d date] [-s section] [-t title] [file]

DESCRIPTION

     mkd2man utility reads file and generates mdoc(7) input from markdown source.  If
     unspecified, file is taken to be standard input.

     The options are as follows:

     -d, --date
             set the document date (‘Dd’) to date (preferrably in "Month Day, Year" format).  If
             unspecified, mkd2man uses the file modification date or current date if reading is
             from standard input or if stat(2) fails.

     -h, --help
             display help text.

     -s, --section
             set the document section (‘Dt’) to section.  If unspecified, mkd2man uses 1.

     -t, --title
             set the document title (‘Dt’) to title.  If unspecified, mkd2man uses the suffix-
             stripped filename part of file.  When reading is from stdin the title must be
             specified.

EXIT STATUS

     The mkd2man utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
