NAME
       smistrip	 - extract MIB or PIB modules from text	files, like RFCs or I-
       Ds

SYNOPSIS
       smistrip	[ -Vhn ] [ -d dir ] [ -m module	] [ file(s) ]

DESCRIPTION
       The smistrip program is used to extract MIB and PIB module  files  from
       ASCII documents like RFCs or Internet Drafts. Modules are identified by
       a  starting  ASN.1  DEFINITIONS clause and the matching END clause. The
       output is written to files named	by the modules'	names.

OPTIONS
       -V     Show the smistrip	version	and exit.

       -h     Show a help text and exit.

       -n     Print only what would be extracted, but do not write any	output
	      file.

       -d dir Write  module  file(s)  to  directory dir	instead	of the current
	      working directory.

       -m module
	      Extract only the module module instead of	all modules  found  in
	      the input	file(s).

       file(s)
	      The  input text file(s) from which modules will be extracted. If
	      no file is given,	input is read from stdin.

       Note that smistrip tries	to be smart about locating  module  start  and
       end,  detecting	page  breaks and blank lines near page breaks. It also
       tries to	cut off	blank prefixing	columns	from all lines of  a  modules.
       However,	 there	might  by documents that cannot	be parsed correctly by
       smistrip	and probably produce incorrect output.	You might consider  to
       use  smilint  on	 every	extracted module file to check its syntactical
       correctness.

EXAMPLE
       This example extracts only the module IPV6-MIB from  the	 file  rfc2465
       and writes it to	the directory /usr/local/tmp.
	 $ smistrip -d /usr/local/tmp -m IPV6-MIB rfc2465
