  32. and
  33. .Xr man 7
  34. .Ux
  35. manual files.
  36. .Pp
  37. By default,
  38. .Nm
  39. parses standard input and outputs only text nodes, preserving line
  40. and column position.
  41. Escape sequences are omitted from the output.
  42. .Pp
  43. Its arguments are as follows:
  44. .Bl -tag -width Ds
  45. .It Fl w
  46. Output a word list.
  47. This outputs each word of text on its own line.
  48. A
  49. .Qq word ,
  50. in this case, refers to whitespace-delimited terms beginning with at
  51. least two letters and not consisting of any escape sequences.
  52. Words have their leading and trailing punctuation
  53. .Pq double-quotes, sentence punctuation, etc.
  54. stripped.
  55. .It Ar
  56. The input files.
  57. .El
  58. .Pp

  62. .Fl i ,
  63. .Fl k ,
  64. .Fl m ,
  65. and
  66. .Fl p
  67. flags are silently discarded for calling compatibility with the

  69. .Sh EXIT STATUS

  72. utility exits with one of the following values:
  73. .Pp
  74. .Bl -tag -width Ds -compact
  75. .It 0
  76. No errors occurred.
  77. .It 6
  78. An operating system error occurred, for example memory exhaustion or an
  79. error accessing input files.
  80. Such errors cause
  81. .Nm
  82. to exit at once, possibly in the middle of parsing or formatting a file.
  83. The output databases are corrupt and should be removed .
  84. .El
  85. .Sh EXAMPLES

  87. .Nm
  88. is for spell-checking manuals on
  89. .Bx .
  90. This is accomplished as follows (assuming British spelling):
  91. .Pp
  92. .Dl $ demandoc -w file.1 | spell -b
