Окружение (Environment)

The groffer program supports many system variables, most of them
       by courtesy of other programs.  All environment variables of
       groff(1) and GNU man(1) and some standard system variables are
       honored.

Native groffer variables GROFFER_OPT Store options for a run of groffer. The options specified in this variable are overridden by the options given on the command line. The content of this variable is run through the shell builtin 'eval', so arguments containing whitespace or special shell characters should be quoted. Do not forget to export this variable, otherwise it does not exist during the run of groffer.

System variables The following variables have a special meaning for groffer.

DISPLAY If set, this variable indicates that the X Window System is running. Testing this variable decides on whether graphical or text output is generated. This variable should not be changed by the user carelessly, but it can be used to start the graphical groffer on a remote X Window System terminal. For example, depending on your system, groffer can be started on the second monitor by the command

sh# DISPLAY=:0.1 groffer what.ever &

LC_ALL LC_MESSAGES LANG If one of these variables is set (in the above sequence), its content is interpreted as the locale, the language to be used, especially when retrieving man pages. A locale name is typically of the form language[_territory[.codeset[@modifier]]], where language is an ISO 639 language code, territory is an ISO 3166 country code, and codeset is a character set or encoding identifier like ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8; see setlocale(3). The locale values C and POSIX stand for the default, i.e. the man page directories without a language prefix. This is the same behavior as when all 3 variables are unset.

PAGER This variable can be used to set the pager for the tty output. For example, to disable the use of a pager completely set this variable to the cat(1) program

sh# PAGER=cat groffer anything

PATH All programs within the groffer script are called without a fixed path. Thus this environment variable determines the set of programs used within the run of groffer.

groff variables The groffer program internally calls groff, so all environment variables documented in groff(1) are internally used within groffer as well. The following variable has a direct meaning for the groffer program.

GROFF_TMPDIR If the value of this variable is an existing, writable directory, groffer uses it for storing its temporary files, just as groff does. See the groff(1) man page for more details on the location of temporary files.

man variables Parts of the functionality of the man program were implemented in groffer; support for all environment variables documented in man(1) was added to groffer, but the meaning was slightly modified due to the different approach in groffer; but the user interface is the same. The man environment variables can be overwritten by options provided with MANOPT, which in turn is overwritten by the command line.

EXTENSION Restrict the search for man pages to files having this extension. This is overridden by option --extension; see there for details.

MANOPT This variable contains options as a preset for man(1). As not all of these are relevant for groffer only the essential parts of its value are extracted. The options specified in this variable overwrite the values of the other environment variables that are specific to man. All options specified in this variable are overridden by the options given on the command line.

MANPATH If set, this variable contains the directories in which the man page trees are stored. This is overridden by option --manpath.

MANSECT If this is a colon separated list of section names, the search for man pages is restricted to those manual sections in that order. This is overridden by option --sections.

SYSTEM If this is set to a comma separated list of names these are interpreted as man page trees for different operating systems. This variable can be overwritten by option --systems; see there for details.

The environment variable MANROFFSEQ is ignored by groffer because the necessary preprocessors are determined automatically.
