       htmlroot
             --htmlroot=name

           Sets the base URL for the HTML files.  When cross-ref-

           STDIN if no infile is specified.

       outfile
             --outfile=name

           Specify the HTML file to create.  Output goes to STD-
           OUT if no outfile is specified.

       podroot
             --podroot=name

           Specify the base directory for finding library pods.

       podpath
             --podpath=name:...:name

           Specify which subdirectories of the podroot contain
           pod files whose HTML converted forms can be linked-to
           in cross-references.
