* The man(1) command was already available in AT&T Version 2 UNIX.Ingo Schwarze2020-02-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Jonathan Gray found it in the "Combined Table of Contents" in Doug McIlroy's "A Research UNIX Reader", which contains a table of which edition manuals appeared in, and in both the "Table of Contents" (page vi) and the body (page 89) of the printed UNIX Programmer's Manual (June 12, 1972) from bitsavers.
* For compatibility with the man(1) implementations of the man-1.6Ingo Schwarze2020-02-102-3/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | and man-db packages, print the manpath if the -w option is given without a following name argument. This quirk has been in man-1.6 since at least man-1.5e (1998) and in man-db since 2012. Using this feature in portable software is a dubious idea because the internal organization of manual page directories varies in about a dozen respects among operating systems, so even if you get the answer, there is no portable way to use it for looking up anything inside. However, Matej Cepl <mcepl at suse dot cz> made me aware that some software, for example the manual viewing functionality in the newest editors/neovim code, unwisely relies on this feature anyway. No objections were raised when this patch was shown on tech@.
* Make sure that -l always causes -w to be ignored, as documentedIngo Schwarze2020-02-061-2/+13
| | | | | in the man(1) manual page. This bugfix is needed to prevent the command "man -lw" from dereferencing a NULL pointer.
* No longer try to ask make(1) what the default compiler is, just use "cc".Ingo Schwarze2020-02-052-16/+9
| | | | | | | | That line was a bad idea in the first place, it tried to be too clever, and it failed in different ways on different platforms. Even when it succeeded, what make(1) considered the default wasn't always useful. Having a simple and robust default and asking users to override it when needed is better.
* Repair more of the issues that i found in filescan() while investigatingIngo Schwarze2020-01-261-35/+85
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the report from <Andreas dot Kahari at abc dot se> on ports@: For a symlink, use the first of the following names that is available: 1. In -t mode, the symlink itself (unchanged). 2. When the (unresolved) symlink already resides inside the manpath, just strip the manpath and use the rest (unchanged). 3. When prefix(es) of the unresolved symlink point to the manpath, strip the longest such prefix and use the rest (new); this fixes situations where the manpath or one of its parent directories is a symlink and at the same time contains symlinks to manual pages. 4. Fall back to the fully resolved symlink, with the manpath stripped (new); this may for example happen when the command line passes symlinks from outside the manpath that point to manual pages inside the manpath, or if manual page trees contain symlinks to symlinks and not all of them are given on the command line. The fallback (4) isn't perfect. You can construct symlink spaghetti in such a way that this algorithm will not enter all manual page names into the database that a human would be able to deduce. But i do not expect such spaghetti to actually occur in practice (not even in ports), and a full fix would require re-implementing realpath(3) in terms of step-by-step readlink(2) calls, repeating the complicated algorithm (3) after each step. While here, also stop using PATH_MAX as the size of a static buffer in filescan(); on some systems, it can be unreasonably large. Instead, allocate path strings dynamically.
* Fix incorrect file type tests.Ingo Schwarze2020-01-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | This bug caused sockets and character special devices to be accepted as manual pages if they appeared inside manpaths, and it caused incorrect file names to be entered into the database when the manpath or one of its parent directories was a symbolic link. This fixes the issues reported by <Andreas dot Kahari at abc dot se> on ports@, but additional issues remain when symbolic links are contained in a manpath that involves another symbolic link.
* Minor cleanup, no functional change:Ingo Schwarze2020-01-251-54/+59
| | | | | | | Do not abuse strstr(3) to check whether one long string starts with another long string. Instead, use strncmp(3) with the proper length. In set_basedir(), also reset *basedir in the error brances for extra safety. While here, invert some more Yoda conditions in the neighbourhood.
* Make the code more readable by introducingIngo Schwarze2020-01-206-25/+42
| | | | | | symbolic constants for tagging priorities. This review also made me find a minor bug: do not upgrade TAG_FALLBACK to TAG_WEAK when there is trailing whitespace.
* Introduce a new mdoc(7) macro .Tg ("tag") to explicitly mark a placeIngo Schwarze2020-01-1915-12/+125
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | as defining a term. Please only use it when automatic tagging does not work. Manual page authors will not be required to add the new macro; using it remains optional. HTML output is still rudimentary in this version and will be polished later. Thanks to kn@ for reminding me that i have been considering since BSDCan 2014 whether something like this might be useful. Given that possibilities of making automatic tagging better are running out and there are still several situations where automatic tagging cannot do the job, i think the time is now ripe. Feedback and no objection from millert@; OK espie@ inoguchi@ kn@.
* Align to the new, sane behaviour of the groff_mdoc(7) .Dd macro:Ingo Schwarze2020-01-1928-75/+96
| | | | | | | | without an argument, use the empty string, and always concatenate all arguments, no matter their number. This allows reducing the number of arguments of mandoc_normdate() and some other simplifications, at the same time polishing some error messages by adding the name of the macro in question.

* test tbl_term.c rev. 1.73 and tbl_data.c rev. 1.53:Ingo Schwarze2020-01-116-11/+39
| | | | | incomplete short layout lines followed by longer lines, and spans at the beginning of layout lines
* When autogenerating one layout cell from a data cell just beyond theIngo Schwarze2020-01-111-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | last layout cell that was explicitly specified, properly initialize the spacing attribute to indicate that the default is to be used. Failing to do so and leaving the spacing at zero in this case caused misformatting when another row further down the table had even more explicitly specified cells. Bug found while trying to write regression tests for tbl_term.c rev. 1.73.
* Fix a logic error:Ingo Schwarze2020-01-111-13/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When both the first and the third column are spans, do not use the number of columns of the span starting in column two for the span starting in column zero. With afl, Jan Schreiber <jes at posteo dot de> found cases where this caused NULL pointer accesses because too many layout cells were consumed. While here, make the code more similar at the three places that iterate over data cells.
* Print more tbl(7) details to help debugging:Ingo Schwarze2020-01-111-11/+94
| | | | column numbers, options, layout rows, cell types, cell modifiers.

* Switch off the useless and annoying "autocomplete" feature;Ingo Schwarze2020-01-101-1/+1
| | | | | issue reported by Tim Baumgard <at bmgrd dot com>. landry@ and florian@ agree with the general direction.
* Document the "delim" syntax and its usage.Ingo Schwarze2020-01-101-22/+29
| | | | | | | Closing a gap reported by bentley@, who also sent a patch, but i'm explaining it somewhat differently. While here, remove duplicate information from the text. OK bentley@
* Skip whitespace before tokens, too.Ingo Schwarze2020-01-085-5/+33
| | | | Bug found by bentley@ with input like "delim $$ delim off".
* Improve the test case by changing the eqn(7) delimiters such that itIngo Schwarze2020-01-082-7/+7
| | | | | actually tests which parts of text lines are processed with eqn(7) and which are not.
* Enable generation of the desired delim/basic output with groff(1).Ingo Schwarze2020-01-081-1/+3
| | | | No functional change for the portable test suite.
* Simplify maintainer targets in OpenBSD: EQN and TBL variablesIngo Schwarze2020-01-085-29/+8
| | | | | | no longer exist and NROFF/NOPTS were replaced with GROFF/GOPTS. This doesn't change how things work in the protable version of the test suite.
* Improve the description of -m/-M/MANPATH/man.conf in multiple respectsIngo Schwarze2020-01-071-33/+46
| | | | | | after kn@ reported that the descriptions were incomplete and somewhat inaccurate. OK jmc@ kn@
* When all cells in a tbl(1) column are empty, set the column widthIngo Schwarze2019-12-314-7/+114
| | | | | to 1n rather than to 0n, in the same way as groff does. This fixes misformatting reported by bentley@ in xkeyboard-config(7).
* Do not fail an assertion when a high level macro occurs in the bodyIngo Schwarze2019-12-261-1/+13
| | | | | | | of a conditional inside a .ce request block. Instead, abort the .ce block just like when there is no conditional in between. Bug found by espie@ working on the textproc/fstrcmp port.

* In HTML, display straight quotes, not curly quotes, for Qq/Qo/Qc macros.Ingo Schwarze2019-12-111-3/+7
| | | | | | This is the intended behavior and already the case in terminal output. Incorrect output noticed by Eldred Habert. Patch from bentley@.
* Add a Content-Security-Policy HTTP header that allows only CSS.Ingo Schwarze2019-11-101-0/+2
| | | | | | This ensures that in a modern browser that understands the header, mandoc rendering bugs cannot possibly be interpreted as JavaScript. Patch from bentley@.

* In the past, generating comment nodes stopped at the .TH or .DdIngo Schwarze2019-11-092-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | macro, which is usually close to the beginning of the file, right after the Copyright header comments. But espie@ found horrible input files in the textproc/fstrcmp port that generate lots of parse nodes before even getting to the header macro. In some formatters, comment nodes after some kinds of real content triggered assertions. So make sure generation of comment nodes stops once real content is encountered.

* For invalid queries and for valid queries returning no result,Ingo Schwarze2019-10-011-7/+10
| | | | | | return the appropriate 40x status code rather than 200. Improvement suggested and diff tested by John Gardner <gardnerjohng at gmail dot com>.
* Fix line breaking in no-fill mode (.Bd -unfilled/<pre>),Ingo Schwarze2019-09-151-20/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | which apparently didn't work since the .Pp/<p> reorg. The new logic is more similar to what the terminal formatter does: 1. Before a node that starts a new mdoc(7) input line, start a new HTML output line. 2. An empty input line or a .Pp causes an empty output line. 3. Nothing needs to be done at the end of a node. Severe misformatting was reported in table(5) by Edgar Pettijohn <edgar at pettijohn dash web dot com> on misc@.
* Improve validation of function names:Ingo Schwarze2019-09-135-8/+74
| | | | | | 1. Relax checking to accept function types of the form "ret_type (fname)(args)" (suggested by Yuri Pankov <yuripv dot net>). 2. Tighten checking to require the closing parenthesis.
* adapt to print_indent() HTML_NOSPACE fix, html.c rev. 1.261Ingo Schwarze2019-09-052-18/+6
|
* Do not clear HTML_NOSPACE in print_indent().Ingo Schwarze2019-09-051-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I don't think there ever was a reason for doing so. Besides, there is a discrepacy with respect to the point in the document affected. That flag controls whitespace at the current formatting point. But when HTML_BUFFER is in effect, the line break and indentation is typically inserted one word further to the left. Anything happening at that point to the left can't reasonably influence spacing at the different point further to the right. Among other effects, this change avoids some spurious line breaks in HTML code at points where they weren't supposed to happen, line breaks that in some cases caused undesirable, visible whitespace when the resulting HTML was rendered.

* Wrap text and phrasing elements in paragraphs unless alreadyIngo Schwarze2019-09-031-1/+24
| | | | | | | | | contained in flow containers; never put them directly into sections. This helps to format paragraphs with the CSS class selector .Pp. Suggested by bentley@ and also by Colin Watson <cjwatson at debian> via Michael Stapelberg <stapelberg at debian>, see https://github.com/Debian/debiman/issues/116
* Format .Nd with more logically with <span> rather than <div>; after all,Ingo Schwarze2019-09-031-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | it is supposed to be a one-line description. For the case where .Nd generates flow content (which is very bad style but syntactically valid), rely on the new feature of html_close_paragraph() to close out the <span> prematurely, effectively moving the flow content out of the .Nd for HTML presentation. For the final closing, also rely on the new html_close_paragraph() functionality, this time triggered by the subsequent block, which will typically be .Sh SYNOPSIS.
* Make html_close_paragraph() more versatile, more robust, lessIngo Schwarze2019-09-031-13/+10
| | | | | | | | dependent on individual HTML elements, and simpler: don't just close <p>, <pre>, and <a>, but any element that establishes phrasing context. This doesn't change output for any OpenBSD manual page, but it will allow using this function more safely and at more places in the future.
* delete the TAG_IDIV crutch, which is no longer usedIngo Schwarze2019-09-013-3/+1
|
* In the HTML formatter, assert(3) that no HTML nesting violation occurs.Ingo Schwarze2019-08-292-38/+50
| | | | | | | Tested on the complete manual page trees of Version 7 AT&T UNIX, 4.4BSD-Lite2, POSIX-2013, OpenBSD 2.2 to 6.5 and -current, FreeBSD 10.0 to 12.0, NetBSD 6.1.5 to 8.1, DragonFly 3.8.2 to 5.6.1, and Linux 4.05 to 5.02.
* minor sync of the inline stylesheet with mandoc.css:Ingo Schwarze2019-08-021-11/+6
| | | | delete unimportant .Pp rule and shorten overly specific selectors
* Simplification, no functional change:Ingo Schwarze2019-07-281-36/+29
| | | | | | Delete the "argc" argument from fs_search() which is now always 1, and move error reporting to the main() program where it is more logically placed and easier to see.
* There is no point in pledge(2)ing literally the same list twice,Ingo Schwarze2019-07-281-16/+0
| | | | so delete the second copy. No functional change.
* In man(1) mode, do the search for each name independently, andIngo Schwarze2019-07-281-81/+79
| | | | | | | | show the results in the order of the command line arguments. Implemented by separating the code for man(1) and apropos(1) in the main() program. Surprisingly, the number of lines of code remains unchanged. Issue reported by deraadt@, additional input from millert@.
* Improve structure, no functional change:Ingo Schwarze2019-07-281-80/+90
| | | | | Unify code to process one single input file and move it into a dedicated new function.
* Move two more output state variables into the new struct outstate.Ingo Schwarze2019-07-273-29/+26
| | | | | Also, move setting of tag_files.tagname into tag_init(). No functional change.
