NAME
udo - convert files from UDO into different formats
SYNOPSIS
udo [-adDghHilmnpqrstvwWxy] source file
udo [-adDghHilmnpqrstvwWxy] -o destination file source file
DESCRIPTION
UDO converts files from the UDO format into Apple-QuickView, ASCII, HTML, Texinfo, Linuxdoc-SGML,
Manualpage, Pure-C-Help, Rich Text Format, ST-Guide, LaTeX, Turbo Vision Help or Windows Help.
Using the first method UDO prints the destination format to the standard output (STDOUT) and error
messages to the standard error output (STDERR). Using the second method UDO writes the destination format
to the destination file and error messages to a log file with the suffix .ul?.
