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?. You have to pass single options to UDO : -al isn't the same as -a -l! The name of the source file has to be the last option.
OPTIONS
-a, --ascii The source file will be converted to ASCII. --amg The source file will be converted to AmigaGuide. --aqv, --quickview The source file will be converted to Apple QuickView. -c, --c A C sourcecode will be generated from the source file. Normal text becomes comment, the content of the sourcecode environment becomes C code. --check Additional checkings will be activated. -d, --no-idxfile Suppresse the generation of index files. --drc The source file will be converted to David's Readme Compiler format. -D symbol Set the symbol `symbol' which can be tested in the source file with !ifset --force-long Force files with long file names. --force-short Force files with short file names (8+3). -f, --pdflatex The source file will be converted to PDFLaTeX sourcecode. -g, --helptag The source file will be converted to HP Helptag SGML. --help Outputs a help page and quits. -h, --html The source file will be converted to HTML. -hh, --htmlhelp The source file will be converted to HTML-Help. -H, --hold You have to press a key before UDO finishes. -i, --info The source file will be converted to GNU Texinfo. --ipf The source file will be converted to OS/2 IPF format. --lyx The source file will be converted to LyX. -l, --no-logfile When using the Option -o UDO doesn't save a log file. -m, --man The source file will be converted to a manualpage. --map Generate a C header file with jump id's for the WinHelp format. --map-gfa Generate a GFA Basic header file with jump id's for the WinHelp format. --map-pas Generate a Pascal header file with jump id's for the WinHelp format. --map-vb Generate a VisualBasic header file with jump id's for the WinHelp format. -n, --nroff The source file will be converted to Nroff. -o F, --outfile F UDO writes the output into the file named "F". -P, --pascal A Pascal sourcecode will be generated from the source file. Normal text becomes comment, the content of the sourcecode environment becomes Pascal code. -p, --pchelp The source file will be converted to Pure C Help. --ps The source file will be converted to PostScript. -q, --quiet UDO won't print anything to STDOUT or STDERR. -r, --rtf The source file will be converted to RTF. --save-upr Generate an additional project filr (.upr). There information about outfiles, infiles, nodes and index entries are listed. -s, --stg The source file will be converted to ST-Guide. --test When using this option UDO won't save a destination file. -t, --tex The source file will be converted to LaTeX. --tree When using this option UDO will save a file with the suffix .ut?. In this file you will see a tree with all files your source file includes. -u, --udo Generate one file in udo format containing all included source files. This allows to put all source files into one udo file. --verbose UDO will print some status information wile converting the source file. --version Outputs version information and quits UDO -v, --vision The source file will be converted to Turbo Vision Help. -w, --win The source file will be converted to Windows Help. -w4, --win4 The source file will be converted to Windows Help 4. -W, --no-warnings Warnings will be suppressed. Error messages will still be printed. -x, --linuxdoc The source file will be converted to Linuxdoc-SGML. -y, --no-hypfile UDO doesn't save a file with syllabification hints (.uh?) when using the option -o. -@ F UDO will read the options from the file named "F".
EXAMPLES
udo file.u Convert the source file `file.u' to ASCII (default) and print the output to the standard output and error messages to the standard error output. udo --tex -o output.tex file.u Convert the source file `file.u' to LaTeX and write the output to the file named `output.tex'. Warnings, error messages and additional information will be written to the log file named `output.ult'. udo -s -y -l -o ! file.u Convert the source file `file.u' to ST-Guide and write the output to `file.stg'. UDO won't save a log file or a file with syllabification patterns.
ENVIRONMENT
HOME UDO looks for the file udo.ini in your home directory if UDOPATH doesn't exist. LANG Sets the language UDO shall use for error messages if neither LC_ALL nor LC_MESSAGES exists. LC_ALL If this is set to `german' UDO prints German messages. If this variable doesn't exist LC_MESSAGES it tested instead. LC_MESSAGES See LC_ALL LANG is tested instead. UDOPATH UDO looks for the file udo.ini in the directory defined by this variable. If UDOPATH doesn't exist HOME is tested instead.
EXIT STATUS
0 Everything was OK. >0 An error has appeared.
