NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

o

yodl2html(1): converts to HTML, writes a file with the extension .html.

o

yodl2man(1): converts to nroff `man’ format, writes .man. Can be further processed with e.g. nroff -Tascii -man file.man.

o

yodl2latex(1): converts to LaTeX output, writes .latex. Can be further processed with, e.g., latex file.latex.

o

yodl2txt(1): converts to plain ASCII, writes .txt. This is a very rudimentary converter, a last-resort.

NOTE: Starting with Yodl version 3.00.0 Yodl’s default file inclusion behavior has changed. The current working directory no longer remains fixed at the directory in which Yodl is called, but is volatile, changing to the directory in which a yodl-file is located. This has the advantage that Yodl’s file inclusion behavior now matches the way C’s #include directive operates; it has the disadvantage that it may break some current documents. Conversion, however is simple but can be avoided altogether if the -L (--legacy-include) option is used (see below).

OPTIONS

Additionally, the following options are available:

o

--no-warnings:
By default the converters call yodl(1) using the -w flag. The option --no-warnings suppresses this flag.

o

--intermediate=<filename>:
By default, files used for the communication between yodl and yodlpost are removed following the conversion. The --intermediate=<filename> option may be provided to retain these files, called <filename> and <filename>.idx.

FILES

The output is written to one or more files having the extension .format.
