* migrate the mdoclint(1) TODO list here, from pkgsrcIngo Schwarze2017-07-221-0/+13

* MAP_PRIVATE is pointless without PROT_WRITEIngo Schwarze2017-07-201-5/+0

* For -Tlint, put parser messages on stdout instead of stderr.Ingo Schwarze2017-07-201-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Originally, naddy@ requested this in 2011 (or maybe even earlier). It was discussed with joerg@, kristaps@, naddy@, and espie@ in 2011, and everybody agreed in principle, but it was postponed because kristaps@ wanted to do some cleanup of the message system first. Meanwhile, message infrastructure was improved about a dozen times... This makes long, tedious commands like "mandoc -Tlint *.1 2>&1 | less" unnecessary and allows simple ones like "man -l -Tlint *.1".
* correctly handle letters in .Nx arguments; improves for exampleIngo Schwarze2017-07-201-5/+0

* Introduce a new mandoc(1) message level, -W style, below -W warning.Ingo Schwarze2017-05-161-14/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Switch -W all from meaning -W warning to meaning -W style. The meaning of -T lint does *not* change, it still implies -W warning. No messages on the new level yet, but they will come. Usually, i do not lightly make the user interface larger. But this has been planned for years, and EXIT STATUS 1 was reserved for it all the time. The message system is now stable enough to finally implement it. jmc@ regarding the concept: "really good idea"
* ASCII characters that are special to roffIngo Schwarze2017-04-271-0/+7
|

* mark up .Ar, .Fa, .Va, .Ft, and .Vt with <var> rather than <i>;Ingo Schwarze2017-02-051-3/+0
| | | | suggested by bentley@ long ago, but needed lots of cleanup first
* more work found in old mailsIngo Schwarze2017-02-031-1/+17

* MANDOCERR_BADTAB no longer exists,Ingo Schwarze2017-01-281-8/+0
| | | | and i checked that MANDOCERR_FI_TAB is used correctly.
* warn about invalid output optionsIngo Schwarze2017-01-271-7/+0
| | | | | and error out if they occur on the command line; missing feature found in the TODO file
* Parse the section number from the content of preformatted pagesIngo Schwarze2017-01-271-5/+0
| | | | and warn if it doesn't match the directory where the file was found.
* more info on man(7) .Xr hyperlinkingIngo Schwarze2017-01-261-0/+3

* Fix -man -Thtml formatting after .nf (which has nothing to doIngo Schwarze2017-01-261-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | with "literal", by the way, it means "no fill"): * Use <pre> such that whitespace is preserved. * Preserve lines breaks. * For font alternating macros, avoid node recursion which required scary juggling with the fill state. Instead, simply print the text children directly. Missing feature first noticed by kristaps@ in 2011, the again reported by afresh1@ in 2016, and finally reported here: https://github.com/Debian/debiman/issues/21 , which i only found because of Shane Kerr's comment here: https://plus.google.com/110314300533310775053/posts/H1eaw9Yskoc
* Improve HTML formatting of .Bl -tag.Ingo Schwarze2017-01-251-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In particular, when using the style sheet, put the body on the same line as the head for short heads, or on the next line for long heads, in a way that preserves both correct indentation and correct vertical spacing with and without -compact, and with one or more heads per body (hi, Zaphod) - eight use cases so far - and with and without -tag, and with and without -offset, 32 use cases grand total. Using many ideas from zhuk@, from <David dot Dahlberg at fkie dot fraunhofer dot de>, and from Benny Lofgren <bl dash lists at lofgren dot biz>, and a few of my own. This is an excellent demonstration that CSS is an extremely hostile language, much more trapful and much harder to use than, say, C. When matthew@ reported this in July 2014 (!), it was already a known issue, and i no longer remember for how long. My first serious attempt at fixing it (in November 2015) failed miserably. I'd love to see simplifications of both the generated HTML code and of the style sheet, but without breaking any of the 32 use cases, please.
* Completely delete the buf field of struct html and all the buf*()Ingo Schwarze2017-01-171-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | interfaces. Such a static buffer was a bad idea in the first place, causing unfixable truncation that was only prevented by triggering an assertion failure. Instead, let the small number of remaining users allocate and free their own, temporary dynamic buffers, or for the case of .Xr and .In, pass the original data to be assembled in print_otag().

* POSIX allows PATH_MAX to not be defined, meaning "unlimited".Ingo Schwarze2016-08-021-0/+7

* Autodetect a suitable locale for -Tutf8 mode,Ingo Schwarze2016-07-311-10/+0
| | | | | | | and allow overriding it manually. Based on a patch from Svyatoslav Mishyn <juef at openmailbox dot org> tweaked by me. The idea originally came up in a conversation with Markus Waldeck.
