.sh DESCRIPTION
.it Troff
formats text for a Graphic Systems phototypesetter
according to control lines embedded
in the text files.
It reads the standard input if
no file
arguments are given.
An argument of just ``\-'' refers to the standard input.
The non-file option arguments are interpreted as follows:
