We have formatted a book using troff with the 'me' package. (Don't ask me why, I just help out.) Anyway, the book has 12 chapters and 3 or 4 appendices. It is much too long to run through troff in one run. At the end of each chapter we generate a table of contents for that chapter. Now we want to merge them all together. We use the '.xp' to print out the TOC. Is there a way to divert part of the output to a different file? Or can anyone suggest another way? Each chapter starts page numbering anew, so that is no problem, all we need is a way to write the TOCs somewhere and then merge them. Thanks.
