* Modernize documentation of .Ao and .Aq.schwarze2017-10-231-17/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | I looked through our whole tree and failed to find a single use that is really convincing, except those with .Mt. Putting it around character and key names is somewhat widespread and maybe acceptable, even if hardly useful. So for now, delete the bogus examples and explain what these macros are really used for. Discourage the most common abuses. Triggered by a question from Raf Czlonka <rczlonka at gmail dot com>.

* Clarify that .Ta as a line macro is a portability problem,schwarze2017-06-291-5/+5

* Rewrite half of this, i was completely unaware how bad it was.schwarze2017-06-281-187/+253
| | | | | | | | Remove several lies, lots of duplicate information, and a lengthy discussion of features we don't support. Clarify the wording in some places and make it more concise in others. Delete examples from where they don't belong and write a new EXAMPLES section from scratch.
* Add support for the MT and ME mailto macros, used for example in wg(8).bentley2017-06-251-2/+16

* Delete .St -p1003.1-2013.schwarze2017-06-241-7/+2
| | | | | | | It is an OpenBSD addition that did not get used a single time in three years, and groff did not pick it up either, so removing it does not affect any existing manuals anywhere. Cleanup suggested by jmc@, OK bentley@.
* implement so-called absolute horizontal motion: \h'|...',schwarze2017-06-141-3/+6
| | | | used for example by zoem(1)
* Naive implementation of the roff(7) .po (page offset) request.schwarze2017-06-141-3/+10
| | | | | | This clearly works when .po is called on the top level, but might not be sophisticated enough if people call .po inside indentation-changing contexts, but i haven't seen that in manual pages (yet :).
* add the \(ru (0.5m baseline ruler) character escape sequence,schwarze2017-06-141-2/+3
| | | | abused by mail/nmh; groff_char(7) confirms that this really exists
* simple implementation of the roff(7) .als (macro alias) request,schwarze2017-06-141-2/+1

* Implement w layout specifier (minimum column width).schwarze2017-06-081-7/+6
| | | | | Improve width calculation of text blocks. Reduces the groff/mandoc diff in Base+Xenocara by about 800 lines.
* Implement the roff(7) .rn (rename macro or string) request.schwarze2017-06-071-4/+13
| | | | | | | | | | Renaming a user-defined macro is very simple: just copy the definition to the new name and delete the old name. Renaming high-level macros is a bit tricky: use a dedicated key-value-table, with non-standard names as keys and standard names as values. When a macro is found that is not user-defined, look it up in the "renamed" table and translate it back to the standard name before passing it on to the high-level parsers.
* Minimal implementation of the roff(7) .ce request (center a numberschwarze2017-06-061-3/+6
| | | | | of input lines without filling). Contrary to groff, high-level macros abort .ce mode for now.
* Implement the roff(7) .mc (right margin character) request.schwarze2017-06-041-2/+4
| | | | | | The Tcl/Tk manual pages use this extensively. Delete the TERM_MAXMARGIN hack, it breaks .mc inside .nf; instead, implement a proper TERMP_BRNEVER flag.
* Pure preprocessor implementation of the roff(7) .ec and .eo requestsschwarze2017-06-041-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (escape character control), touching nothing after the preprocessing stage and keeping even the state variable local to the preprocessor. Since the escape character is also used for line continuation, this requires pulling the implementation of line continuation from the input reader to the preprocessor, which also considerably shortens the code required for that. When the escape character is changed, simply let the preprocessor replace bare by escaped backslashes and instances of the non-standard escape character with bare backslashes - that's all we need. Oh, and if anybody dares to use these requests in OpenBSD manuals, sending a medium-sized pack of axe-murderes after them might be a worthwhile part of the punishment, but probably insuffient on its own.
* Partial implementation of \h (horizontal line drawing function).schwarze2017-06-021-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | A full implementation would require access to output device properties and state variables (both only available after the main parser has finalized the parse tree) before numerical expansions in the roff preprocessor (i.e., before the main parser is even started). Not trying to pull that stunt right now because the static-width implementation committed here is sufficient for tcl-style manual pages and already more complicated than i would have suspected.
