* When .Sm is called without an argument, groff toggles the spacing mode,schwarze2014-07-021-4/+9
| | | | | so let us do the same for compatibility. Using this feature is of course not recommended except in manual page obfuscation contests.
* Implement the obsolete macros .En .Es .Fr .Ot for backward compatibility,schwarze2014-07-021-18/+31
| | | | | since this is hardly more complicated than explicitly ignoring them as we did in the past. Of course, do not use them!
* Deprecate .Tn and .Ux, and make it clearer that .Bt and .Ud are deprecated.schwarze2014-06-241-48/+24
| | | | | | | | | Do not use these macros in new documents, they provide no value. Instead, usually no macro and no markup is needed at all. Of course, they remain supported for compatibility with existing manuals. Jason McIntyre (OpenBSD), Thomas Klausner (NetBSD) and Franco Fichtner (DragonFly) are OK with this documentation change.
* Minimal COMPATIBILITY cleanup:schwarze2014-06-221-36/+7
| | | | | | | | * Mention that the list is incomplete. * I implemented %C for groff -current, and it was accepted. * Font family is \F, not \f. * Escapes and scaling widths are documented in roff(7), not here. * Quoting quotes by doubling them is now supported.
* Minimal cleanup of the COMPATIBILITY section:schwarze2014-06-221-40/+11
| | | | | | | | | | * Mention that the list is incomplete. * Quoting quotes by doubling them is documented in the Ossanna/Kernighan/Ritter Nroff/Troff User's Manual, Section 7.3. * Our roff(7) manual documents handling of escape sequences; besides, we partially support \w and \z now. * Scaling widths are documented in roff(7) as well, and f is not \f. * Negative arguments to .sp are handled now.

* Fully implement the \B (validate numerical expression) andschwarze2014-04-081-8/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | partially implement the \w (measure text width) escape sequence in a way that makes them usable in numerical expressions and in conditional requests, similar to how \n (interpolate number register) and \* (expand user-defined string) are implemented. This lets mandoc(1) handle the baroque low-level roff code found at the beginning of the ggrep(1) manual. Thanks to pascal@ for the report.
* Almost complete implementation of roff(7) numerical expressions.schwarze2014-04-071-18/+81
| | | | | | | Support all binary operators except ';' (scale conversion). Fully support chained operations and nested parentheses. Use this for the .nr, .if, and .ie requests. While here, fix parsing of integer numbers in roff_getnum().
* Implement the roff(7) .rr (remove register) request.schwarze2014-04-051-8/+12

* Improve .if/.ie condition handling.schwarze2014-03-081-41/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Support string comparisons. * Support negation not only for numerical, but for all conditions. * Switch the `o' condition from false to true. * Handle the `c', `d', and `r' conditions as false for now. * Use int for boolean data instead of rolling our own "enum roffrule"; needed such that we can use the standard ! and == operators. Havard Eidnes reported via the NetBSD bug tracking system that some Tcl*(3) manuals need this, and Thomas Klausner <wiz at NetBSD> forwarded the report to me. This doesn't make the crazy Tcl*(3) macrology maze happy yet, but brings us a bit closer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note that the POSIX-2008 standard remains in force, so please refrain from wholesale 2008 -> 2013 replacements. Make sure to only use the new -p1003.1-2013 argument for cases where "IEEE Std 1003.1(TM)-2008/ Cor 1-2013, IEEE Standard for Information Technology--Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX(R)), Technical Corrigendum 1" actually changes something in the standard with respect to the specific function documented in the manual you touch. Otherwise, please continue using .St -p1003.1-2008. Triggered by a similar, but slightly incorrect patch from jmc@; ok guenther@.

* Rework the documentation of Spaces, using the Ossanna/Kernighan/Ritterschwarze2013-12-261-21/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Heirloom Nroff/Troff User's Manual at the authoritative reference. Part of our text was outright wrong. Also, refrain from advertising the paddable non-breaking space `\~' in the DESCRIPTION, for three reasons: For nroff mode, -Tascii, and fixed width fonts in general, it makes no difference, so keep the discussion simple. Compared to `\ ', '\~' is of questionable portability. And if you want to keep words together, it is also more usual that you don't want padding to intervene either. Finally, drop the `\c' escape sequence (interrupt text processing) which is not a special character but an input processing instruction akin to the \<newline> escape sequence.
* The roff language really has two groups of basic building blocks:schwarze2013-12-261-9/+255
| | | | | | | Requests and escape sequences. Consequently, supplement the REQUEST REFERENCE by an ESCAPE SEQUENCE REFERENCE, such that people no longer need to guess or experiment what mandoc(1) implements, what it parses and ignores, and what it doesn't handle at all.
* Support .St -xsh4.2, the System Interfaces part of the original Singleschwarze2013-12-251-3/+5
| | | | | | | | UNIX Specification. As this one appears to be used in the wild and we already have -xpg4.2 and even -xsh5, it makes sense to add this one. Note that calling the original SUS XPG4.2 appears to be more common than calling it SUSv1, so it's ok that we don't have .St -susv1.

| | | | | | | | | | It is already documented in the Heirloom troff manual, and groff handles it as well. Bug reported by Bjarni Ingi Gislason <bjarniig at rhi dot hi dot is> on <bug-groff at gnu dot org>. Well, admittedly, that bug was reported against groff, but mandoc was even more broken than groff with respect to this syntax...
