allegro-makedoc(1) script to generate Allegro documentation

SYNOPSIS

allegro-makedoc [-ascii OUTFILE] [-html OUTFILE|-htm OUTFILE] [-texi OUTFILE|-txi OUTFILE] [-rtf OUTFILE] [-man OUTFILE] [-part] [-warn] INFILE

DESCRIPTION

allegro-makedoc is the Allegro library's documentation generator. It simplifies producing the documentation in various formats (ASCII, HTML, TexInfo, and RTF). It converts from a weird layout that is basically a kind of stripped down HTML with a few extra markers (the _tx files), and automates a few things like constructing indexes and splitting HTML files into multiple parts.

Be warned that allegro-makedoc is not pretty, elegant, or well written, and is liable to get upset if it doesn't like the input data.

EXAMPLE

allegro-makedoc -html output.html -ascii output.txt input._tx

Reads input._tx and output an HTML documentation to output.html and an ASCII documentation to output.txt.

-part
