  17.           ggggrrrrooooffffffff is a front-end to the groff document formatting
  18.           system.  Normally it runs the ggggttttrrrrooooffffffff program and a
  19.           postprocessor appropriate for the selected device.
  20.           Available devices are:
  21.  
  22.           ppppssss   For PostScript printers and previewers
  23.  
  24.           ddddvvvviiii  For TeX dvi format
  25.  
  26.           XXXX77775555  For a 75 dpi X11 previewer
  27.  
  28.           XXXX111100000000 For a 100dpi X11 previewer
  29.  
  30.           aaaasssscccciiiiiiii
  31.                For typewriter-like devices
  32.  
  33.           llllaaaattttiiiinnnn1111
  34.                For typewriter-like devices using the ISO Latin-1
  35.                character set.
  36.  
  37.           The postprocessor to be used for a device is specified by
  38.           the ppppoooossssttttpppprrrroooo command in the device description file.  This
  39.           can be overridden with the ----XXXX option.
  40.  
  41.           The default device is ppppssss.  It can optionally preprocess with
  42.           any of ggggppppiiiicccc, ggggeeeeqqqqnnnn, ggggttttbbbbllll, ggggrrrreeeeffffeeeerrrr, or ggggssssooooeeeelllliiiimmmm....
  43.  
  44.           Options without an argument can be grouped behind a single
  45.           ----.  A filename of ---- denotes the standard input.
  46.  
  47.           The ggggrrrroooogggg command can be used to guess the correct groff
  48.           command to use to format a file.

  74.           ----RRRR   Preprocess with grefer.  No mechanism is provided for
  75.                passing arguments to ggggrrrreeeeffffeeeerrrr because most grefer options
  76.                have equivalent commands which can be included in the
  77.                file.  See ggggrrrreeeeffffeeeerrrr(1) for more details.

  84.           ----zzzz   Suppress output from ggggttttrrrrooooffffffff.  Only error messages will
  85.                be printed.

  87.           ----ZZZZ   Do not postprocess the output of ggggttttrrrrooooffffffff.  Normally
  88.                ggggrrrrooooffffffff will automatically run the appropriate
  89.                postprocessor.
  90.  
  91.           ----PPPP_a_r_g
  92.                Pass _a_r_g to the postprocessor.  Each argument should be
  93.                passed with a separate ----PPPP option.  Note that ggggrrrrooooffffffff does
  94.                not prepend ---- to _a_r_g before passing it to the
  95.                postprocessor.
  96.  
  97.           ----llll   Send the output to a printer.  The command used for
  98.                this is specified by the pppprrrriiiinnnntttt command in the device
  99.                description file.
  100.  
  101.           ----LLLL_a_r_g
  102.                Pass _a_r_g to the spooler.  Each argument should be
  103.                passed with a separate ----LLLL option.  Note that ggggrrrrooooffffffff does
  104.                not prepend ---- to _a_r_g before passing it to the
  105.                postprocessor.
  106.  
  107.           ----TTTT_d_e_v
  108.                Prepare output for device _d_e_v.  The default device is
