It translates PerlPoint into SDF. SDF as a target format is useful because sdf itself can produce various other formats. =head1 SYNOPSIS pp2sdf [] =head2 Options All options can be abbreviated uniqly. =over 4 =item -activeContents PerlPoint sources can embed Perl code which is evaluated while the source is parsed. For reasons of security this feature is deactivated by default. Set this option to active it. You can use I<-safeOpcode> to fine tune which operations shall be permitted. =item -allTags B implements the PerlPoint tags I, I, I, I and I. Because every PerlPoint translator can define its own tags it may happen that a source file containes more than these. If they do not pass translation try this option which makes I tags accepted. I =item -cache parsing of one and the same document several times can be accelerated by activating the PerlPoint parser cache by this option. The performance boost depends on your document structure. Cache files are written besides the source and named "..ppcache". It can be useful to (temporarily) deactivate the cache to get correct line numbers in parser error messages (currently numbers cannot always reported correctly with activated cache because of a special perl behaviour). =item -cacheCleanup PerlPoint parser cache files grow (with every modified version of a source parsed) because they store expressions for every parsed variant of a paragraph. This is usually uncritical but you may wish to clean up the cache occasionally. Use this option to perform the task (or remove the cache file manually). =item -help displays an online help and terminates the script. =item -nocopyright suppresses the copyright message; =item -noinfo supresses runtime informations; =item -nowarn supresses warnings; =item -quiet a shortcut for "-nocopyright -noinfo -nowarn": all non critical runtime messages are suppressed; =item -safeOpcode If active contents is enabled (I<-activeContents>), Perl code embedded into the translated PerlPoint sources will be evaluated. To keep security this is done via an object of class B which restricts code to permitted operations. By this option you can declare which opcode (or opcode tag) is permitted. Please see the B and B manual pages for further details. (These modules come with perl.) This option can be used multiply. You may want to store these options in default option files, see below for details. =item -trace [] activates traces of the specified level. You may use the environment variable SCRIPTDEBUG alternatively (but an option overwrites environment settings). The following levels are defined (use the I values) - if a description sounds cryptic to you, just ignore the setting: =over 4 =item zero (0) same as omitting the option: all traces are suppressed. =item one (1) paragraph detection, =item two (2) lexer traces, =item four (4) parsing, =item eight (8) semantic actions embedded into parsing, =item sixteen (16) active contents, =item thirtytwo (32) backend traces. =back Using different levels may cause unexpected results. Several levels are combined by addition. # activate lexer and parser traces -trace 6 =back =head2 Option files Options may be loaded from files where they are stored exactly as you write them in the command line, but may be spread to several lines and extended by comment lines which start with a "#" character. To mark an option file in the commandline, simply enter its (path and) name prededed by a "@" character, for example pp2sdf @myOptions ppfile where the file myOptions could look like # suppress infos -noinfo Option files may be nested. To avoid endless recursion, every option file is resolved only the first time it is detected. # this is an option file which # refers to another option file -noinfo @moreOptions The script also takes care of I which means that usual options can be stored in files named C<.pp2sdf>. If such a file is placed in the directory where the script itself resides, options in the file are read in automatically by all pp2sdf calls. These are global settings. If you place such a file in your home directory, it is read automatically as well but only if pp2sdf is called under your account, so this is for personal preferences. A personal default option file overwrites global settings, and all default options are overwritten by options passed to the script call. =head1 FILES =head1 ENVIRONMENT =over 4 =item SCRIPTDEBUG may be set to a numeric value to activate certain trace levels. You can use option I<-trace> alternatively (note that a used option overwrites an environment setting). The several levels are described with this option. =back =head1 NOTES This is a first attempt of a working PerlPoint to SDF translator. It handles all of the PerlPoint elements but is still alpha software because =over 4 =item SDF phrases are not disabled SDF recognizes POD tags like I, B and C. If a string looks like such a tag, sdf tries to evaluate it the tag way. This should be suppressed. =back =head1 FILES B activates the PerlPoint parser cache to accelerate repeated translations. Because of this the usual PerlPoint parser cache files will be written next the parsed sources (as "..ppcache" in the source directory). =head1 SEE ALSO PerlPoint::Parser PerlPoint::Backend =head1 AUTHOR Copyright (c) Jochen Stenzel (perl@jochen-stenzel.de), 2000.
