Hello, I am having trouble again with macros, soelim.
I am writing a document that will have pic's and equation's in it. I wanted to separate these into files. One file for each chapter. But I am having trouble doing this. Here is an example. The main file has .\"de source .\"so \\$1 .\". foo .so ch1.tr foo And the included chapter has this (ch1.tr) .PS circle arrow box .PE Now if I run this main file using (cat main.tr | groff -p -s > main.ps) I get the document with the picture. But if I instead uncomment the source macro and call this macro (.source ch1.tr) instead of (.so ch1.tr), it fails with (soelim:stdin:2: can't open '\$1': No such file or directory). Can we create documents that have chapters, sections, that are in separate files? How can we do this? Clearly I am missing something. I could as well write another preprocessor that will process these .source commands, and generate a concatenated file and run that through the groff processor, but I would like to understand why this above does not work.
