tc2text - convert troffcvt output to ASCII text

tc2text [ options ] file ... ]

tc2text is a postprocessor for troffcvt and converts troffcvt output to to ASCII text. It's usually invoked by running the troffcvt front end unroff .

tc2text understands the following options:

Enable debugging output.
Cause tc2text to echo token information to stderr as tokens are read from troffcvt.
Specify a title for the document. This can be used for documents that do not contain any recognizable title. If the document does contain a title, it is overridden.

tc2text uses a set of special macros that tell troffcvt how to generate tc2text-specific output that indicates text structural elements. These macros do not work in compatibility mode.
