-@code{grog} reads files, guesses which of the @code{groff} preprocessors
-and/or macro packages are required for formatting them, and prints the
-@code{groff} command including those options on the standard output. It
-generates one or more of the options @option{-e}, @option{-man},

-@option{-mdoc-old}, @option{-p}, @option{-R}, @option{-g}, @option{-G},

-A special file name@tie{}@file{-} refers to the standard input.
-Specifying no files also means to read the standard input. Any
-specified options are included in the printed command. No space is
-allowed between options and their arguments. The only options

-guesses the appropriate command to print @file{paper.ms} and then prints

-@Example
-`grog -Tdvi paper.ms` > paper.dvi

-As this example shows, it is still necessary to redirect the output to
-something meaningful (i.e., either a file or a pager program like
-@code{less}).
