for the output document (default C)

quit after NUM errors (default 100)

preserve output even if errors

display this help and exit

suppress node cross-reference validation

suppress warnings (but not errors)

search also for initialization files in DIR

load FILE to modify the default behavior

set customization variable VAR to value VAL

print names of included files

explain what is being done

display version information and exit

output Docbook XML

output HTML

output EPUB 3

output LaTeX

output plain text rather than Info

output Texinfo XML

call texi2dvi to generate given output, after checking validity of TEXINFO-FILE

output macro-expanded source to FILE, ignoring any @setfilename

suppress node separators, Node: lines, and menus from Info output (thus producing plain text) or from HTML (thus producing shorter output). Also, if producing Info, write to standard output by default.

suppress any splitting of the output; generate only one output file

output chapter and sectioning numbers; default is on

number footnotes sequentially; default is on

output to DEST. With split output, create DEST as a directory and put the output files there. With non-split output, if DEST is already a directory or ends with a /, put the output file there. Otherwise, DEST names the output file.

do not output accented and special characters in Info and plain text output based on document encoding

override --disable-encoding (default)

break Info lines at NUM columns (default 72)

output footnotes in Info according to STYLE: `separate' to put them in their own node; `end' to put them at the end of the node, in which they are defined (this is the default)

indent Info paragraphs by VAL spaces (default 3). If VAL is `none', do not indent; if VAL is `asis', preserve existing indentation.

split Info files at size NUM (default 300000)

include FILE in HTML <style> output; read stdin if FILE is -

generate CSS reference to URL

produce list of internal links in FILE

split at SPLIT, where SPLIT may be `chapter', `section' or `node'

use file names in ASCII transliteration

produce redirection files for nodes and anchors; default is set only if split

pass OPT to texi2dvi; can be repeated

define the variable VAR, as with @set

define VAR to VAL (one shell argument)

append DIR to the @include search path

prepend DIR to the @include search path

undefine the variable VAR, as with @clear

process @ifdocbook and @docbook

process @ifhtml and @html

process @ifinfo

process @iflatex and @latex

process @ifplaintext

process @iftex and @tex

process @ifxml and @xml

By default, an --ifFORMAT setting is on only when the output format is FORMAT; for example, --ifhtml is on when outputting HTML. Also, when --ifFORMAT is on, @ifnotFORMAT text is not processed.

Each --ifFORMAT option may be prefixed with `--no-' to negate it; for example, --no-ifhtml means not to process @ifhtml or @html text, and to process @ifnothtml text.
