If unset, `@BINDIR@' is used. 129.SH NOTES 130This shell script is basically intended for use with 131.BR man (1), 132so warnings are suppressed. 133nroff-style character definitions (in the file tty-char.tmac) are also 134loaded to emulate unrepresentable glyphs. 135.SH "SEE ALSO" 136.BR groff (@MAN1EXT@), 137.BR @g@troff (@MAN1EXT@), 138.BR grotty (@MAN1EXT@) 139. 140.\" Local Variables: 141.\" mode: nroff 142.\" End: 143
