Hi John,

> Is there a way I can stop the text from being hyphenated?

troff's `no hyphenation' command is `.nh' so try inserting that before
the troff source of the man page, e.g.

    (echo .nh; cat /path/to/manpage.1) | nroff ...

There's the possibility that something later in the troff source, e.g.
the man macro package, will override it, but you get the idea.

Cheers,


Ralph.
