COOK(1) COOK(1)
NAME
cook - SGML converter
SYNOPSIS
cook [ -f format ] [ -o outfile ] [ infile ]
DESCRIPTION
Cook reads a file in SGML format and produces an interpreta-
tion of the file in either LaTex or HTML format on standard
output.
If no infile argument is present, the standard input is
read. If an outfile argument is present, the results are
written to that file instead of standard output. The format
argument must be either html to produce HTML format output
or one of: latex, latexbook, latexpart, latexproc, or
latexslides to produce LaTex output.
The latexpart format assumes that the resulting output is to
be included in the body of a controlling LaTex document. The
other LaTex format options result in the generation of vari-
ous LaTex wrapping commands.
Cook was designed to operate on the output of the Brutus
editor (See wm-brutus(1) ) and so its mapping of SGML tags
is closely linked to those generated by brutus.
The following tags are recognised: Author, Bold.n, Caption,
Example, Exercise, Extension, Float, Heading, Index,
Index-topic, Italic.n, Label, Label-ref, List, List-elem,
No-fill, Par, Roman.n, SGML, Title, and Type.n, where n is a
character point size and must be one of: 6, 8, 10, 12 or 16.
