NAME
     uil - The user interface language compiler

SYNOPSIS
     uil
     [ options ] file

DESCRIPTION
     The uil command invokes the UIL compiler.	The  User  Inter-
     face Language (UIL) is a specification language for describ-
     ing the initial state of a	user interface for a Motif appli-
     cation.   The  specification  describes  the objects (menus,
     dialog boxes, labels, push	buttons, and so	on) used  in  the
     interface	and  specifies the routines to be called when the
     interface changes state as	a result of user interaction.

     file Specifies the	file to	be compiled through the	UIL  com-
	  piler.

     options
	  Specifies one	or more	of the following options:

     -Ipathname
	  This option causes the compiler  to  look  for  include
	  files	 in  the directory specified if	the include files
	  have not been	found in  the  paths  that  already  were
	  searched.   Specify this option followed by a	pathname,
	  with no intervening spaces.

     -m	  Machine code is listed.  This	directs	the  compiler  to
	  place	 in the	listing	file a description of the records
	  that it added	to the	User  Interface	 Database  (UID).
	  This	helps  you  isolate  errors.   The  default is no
	  machine code.

     -o	file
	  Directs the compiler to produce a UID.  By default, UIL
	  creates  a UID with the name a.uid.  The file	specifies
	  the filename for the UID.  No	UID is	produced  if  the
	  compiler issues any diagnostics categorized as error or
	  severe.

     -s	  Directs the compiler to set the locale before	compiling
	  any  files.	The  locale  is	set in an implementation-
	  dependent manner.  On	ANSI C-based systems, the  locale
	  is  usually  set  by calling setlocale(LC_ALL, "").  If
	  this option is not specified,	the compiler does not set
	  the locale.

     -v	file
	  Directs the compiler to generate a listing.	The  file
	  specifies  the  filename  for	 the  listing.	If the -v

	  option is not	present, no listing is generated  by  the
	  compiler.  The default is no listing.

     -w	  Specifies that the compiler suppress	all  warning  and
	  informational	messages.  If this option is not present,
	  all messages are generated, regardless of the	severity.

     -wmd file
	  Specifies a  binary  widget  meta-language  description
	  file	to  be	used in	place of the default WML descrip-
	  tion.
