NAME
       soelim - interpret .so requests in groff input

SYNOPSIS
       soelim [-Cv] [-Idir] [files...]

DESCRIPTION
       soelim reads files and replaces lines of the form


              .so file

       by the contents of file. It is useful if files included with so need to
       be preprocessed.  Normally, soelim should be invoked with the -s option
       of groff.

OPTIONS
       -C     Recognize .so even when followed by a character other than space
              or newline.

       -Idir  This option may be used to specify a directory to search for
              files (both those on the command line and those named in .so
              lines).  The current directory is always searched first.  This
              option may be specified more than once, the directories will be
              searched in the order specified.  No directory search is
              performed for files specified using an absolute path.

       -v     Print the version number.
