Viewing The Texi Doc
This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process
is only approximative, and some items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate representation in the manpage format.
Moreover, not all information has been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you
to use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo
doc.
* To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:
./configure;makedvi;dvipsmtools.dvi
* To generate a html copy, run:
./configure;makehtml
A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html'
* To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:
./configure;makeinfo
The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in the info version certain examples
are difficult to read due to the quoting conventions used in info.
