+Override default compiler behaviour. See

+for available formats. Defaults to
+.Fl T Ns Ar ascii .
+.\" ITEM
+.It Fl V
+Print version and exit.
+.\" ITEM
+.It Fl W Ns Ar err...
+Print warning messages. May be set to
+.Fl W Ns Ar all
+for all warnings,
+.Ar compat
+for groff/troff-compatibility warnings, or
+.Ar syntax
+for syntax warnings. If
+.Fl W Ns Ar error
+is specified, warnings are considered errors and cause utility
+termination. Multiple
+.Fl W
+arguments may be comma-separated, such as
+.Fl W Ns Ar error,all .
+.\" ITEM
+.It Ar infile...
+Read input from zero or more
+.Ar infile .
+If unspecified, reads from stdin.

+.\" PARAGRAPH

+By default,

+.\" SUB-SECTION
+.Ss Output Formats
+The
+.Nm
+utility accepts the following
+.Fl T
+arguments:
+.Bl -tag -width XXXXXXXXXXXX -offset XXXX
+.It Ar ascii
+Produce 7-bit ASCII output, backspace-encoded for bold and underline
+styles. This is the default.
+.It Ar tree
+Produce an indented parse tree.
+.It Ar lint
+Parse only: produce no output.
+.El
+.\" SUB-SECTION
+.Ss Compiler Options
+Default compiler behaviour may be overriden with the
+.Fl f
+flag.
+.Bl -tag -width XXXXXXXXXXXX -offset XXXX
+.It Fl f Ns Ar ign-scope
+When rewinding the scope of a block macro, forces the compiler to ignore
+scope violations. This can seriously mangle the resulting tree.
+.It Fl f Ns Ar ign-escape
+Ignore invalid escape sequences.
+.It Fl f Ns Ar ign-macro
+Ignore unknown macros at the start of input lines.
+.El
+.\" PARAGRAPH
+.Pp
+As with the
+.Fl W
+flag, multiple
+.Fl f
+options may be grouped and delimited with a comma. Using
+.Fl f Ns Ar ign-scope,ign-escape ,
+for example, will try to ignore scope and character-escape errors.
