+.SH NAME
+makestrs \- makes string table C source and header(s)
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B makestrs [-f source] [-i includedir] [-abioptions ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I makestrs
+command creates string table C source files and headers.
+If
+.I -f
+.I source
+is not specified
+.I makestrs
+will read from
+.I stdin.
+The C source file is always written to
+.I stdout.
+.I makestrs
+creates one or more C header files as specified in the source file.
+The following options may be specified:
+.I -sparcabi,
+.I -intelabi,
+.I -functionabi,
+.I -arrayperabi,
+and
+.I -defaultabi.
+.LP
+.I -sparcabi
+is used on SPARC platforms conforming to the SPARC
+Compliance Definition, i.e. SVR4/Solaris.
+.LP
+.I -intelabi
+is used on Intel platforms conforming to the System
+V Application Binary Interface, i.e. SVR4.
+.LP
+.I -earlyR6abi
+may be used in addition to
+.I -intelabi
+for situations
+where the vendor wishes to maintain binary compatibility between
+X11R6 public-patch 11 (and earlier) and X11R6 public-patch 12 (and later).
+.LP
+.I -functionabi
+generates a functional abi to the string table. This
+mechanism imposes a severe performance penalty and it's recommended
+that you not use it.
+.LP
+.I -arrayperabi
+results in a separate array for each string. This is
+the default behavior if makestrs was compiled with -DARRAYPERSTR
+(it almost never is).
+.LP
+.I -defaultabi
+forces the generation of the "normal" string table even
+if makestrs was compiled with -DARRAYPERSTR. Since makestrs is almost
+never compiled with -DARRAYPERSTR this is the default behavior if
+no abioptions are specified.
+.LP
+.I -i includedir
+forces the reading of templates from the includedir instead of the local
+directory. This is useful to have separate source and build directories.

+.LP
+In words you may have one or more #file directives. Each #file may have
+one or more #table directives.
+.LP
+The #prefix directive determines the string that makestr will prefix
+to each definition.
+.LP
+The #feature directive determines the string that makestr will use
+for the feature-test macro, e.g. X[TM]STRINGDEFINES.
+.LP
+The #externref directive determines the string that makestr will use
+for the extern clause, typically this will be "extern" but Motif wants
+it to be "externalref"
+.LP
+The #externdef directive determines the string that makestr will use
+for the declaration, typically this will be the null string (note that
+makestrs requires a trailing space in this case, i.e. "#externdef "),
+and Motif will use "externaldef(_xmstrings).
+.LP
+The #ctmpl directive determines the name of the file used as a template
+for the C source file that is generated
+.LP
+Each #file <filename> directive will result in a corresponding header
+file by that name containing the appropriate definitions as specified
+by command line options. A single C source file containing the
+declarations for the definitions in all the headers will be printed
+to stdout.
+.LP
+The #htmpl directive determines the name of the file used as a template
+for the C header file that is generated.
+.LP
+Each #table <tablename> directive will be processed in accordance with
+the ABI. On most platforms all tables will be catenated into a single
+table with the name of the first table for that file. To conform to
+the Intel ABI separate tables will be generated with the names indicated.
+.LP
+The template files specified by the #ctmpl and #htmpl directives
+are processed by copying line for line from the template file to
+the appropriate output file. The line containing the string
+.I <<<STRING_TABLE_GOES_HERE>>>
+is not copied to the output file. The appropriate data is then
+copied to the output file and then the remainder of the template
+file is copied to the output file.
+.SH BUGS
+makestrs is not very forgiving of syntax errors. Sometimes you need
+a trailing space after # directives, other times they will mess you
+up. No warning messages are emitted.
