.P
The options
.B \-v
and
.B \%\-\-version
print the version information of the program to standard output and exit.
.
The options
.B \-h
and
.B \-\-help
print a usage information of the program to standard output and stop
the program instantly.
.
.
.P
All other options are assumed to be
.B \%groffer
options.
.
They are internally passed to
.BR \%groffer .
They override the behavior of the program.
.
The options are optional, they can be omitted.
.
.
.P
The
.I \%filespec
arguments correspond to the
.I \%filespec
arguments of
.BR \%groffer .
So they are either the names of existing, readable files or
.B \-
for standard input, or the name of a man page or a
.BR \%groffer (1)
man page search pattern.
.
If no
.I \%filespec
is specified standard input is assumed automatically.
