NAME

       wordgrinder - console-based word processor

SYNOPSIS

       wordgrinder [options] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       wordgrinder  is  a  simple  character  cell word processor that runs on the console. It is
       primarily designed for text entry. It's designed to get the hell out of your way  and  let
       you write; it does very little, but what it does it does well.

       It  supports Unicode, basic paragraph styles, basic character styles, basic screen markup,
       a menu interface that means you don't have to remember complex key sequences, HTML  import
       and export, and some other useful features.

       When running, pressing ESC (or ALT + menu shortcut key) will open the menu.

OPTIONS

       These  options  follow  the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with
       two dashes (`-').

       -h, --help
              Show summary of options.

       --lua filename
              Loads and executes a Lua file before startup.

       --convert srcfile destfile
              Converts from srcfile to destfile and then exits.

              The type of the file is autodetected from the extension of the filename. The source
              file may have a document name suffixed with a : for use when importing or exporting
              WordGrinder files.
