2.13.0                                             2024-08-29                                         ZSOELIM(1)

zsoelim parses file arguments, or if none are specified, its standard input for lines of the form:

       .so <filename>

       These  requests  are  replaced  by the contents of the filename specified.  If the request cannot be met,
       zsoelim looks for filename.ext where .ext can be one of .gz, .Z or .z.   Other  extension  types  may  be
       supported depending upon compile time options.  If the request can be met by a compressed file, this file
       is decompressed using an appropriate decompressor and its output is used to satisfy the request.

       Traditionally,  soelim  programs were used to allow roff preprocessors to be able to preprocess the files
       referred to by the requests.  This particular version was  written  to  circumvent  problems  created  by
       support for compressed manual pages.

-C, --compatible
              This  flag  is  available  for compatibility with other soelim programs.  Its use is to enable .so
              requests followed by something other than whitespace.  As this is already the  default  behaviour,
              it is ignored.

       -h, --help
              Print a help message and exit.

       -V, --version
              Display version information.
