.SH NAME
validate \- Offline HTMLHelp.com Validator
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B validate
.I "[OPTION] [FILE...]"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
.B validate\c
\&, the Offline HTMLHelp.com Validator, checks the syntax of HTML
documents using an SGML parser and reports any errors. XHTML documents
may also be validated using an XML parser.

.SH OPTIONS
A summary of options are included below.
.TP
.B \-\-w, \-\-warn
Include warnings.
.TP
.B \-\-xml
Indicate that the documents to be validated are XML documents. Known 
document types, such as HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0, are automatically handled 
by "validate". For unknown document types, "validate" will assume XHTML/XML 
if this option is specified and HTML/SGML otherwise.
.TP
.B \-\-charset=ENCODING
Force ENCODING to be used as the character encoding when validating HTML/SGML
documents. This option is ignored when validating XHTML/XML documents, which
are assumed to use XML rules for specifying the character encoding. The 
following encodings (case-insensitive) are supported: "utf-8", 
"iso-10646-ucs-2", "euc-jp", "euc-kr", "gb2312", "shift_jis", "big5", and 
"iso-8859-n" where n is between 1 and 9 inclusive.
.TP
.B \-\-verbose
Turn on verbose output messages.
.TP
.B \-\-[no]emacs
(don't) use an output format intended for parsing by (X)Emacs, autodetected.
.TP
.B \-h, \-\-help
Show summary of options and exit.
.TP
.B \-v, \-\-version
Output version information and exit
.SH FILES
.PP
Any number of files may be specified after the options. With no FILE,
standard input is read.
.PP
Files can also be URIs if you have the URI and libwww-perl packages
installed. Support for different URI schemes is also determined by these
packages. Proxy settings are loaded from environment variables for
each scheme--e.g., http_proxy=http://localhost:3128.
