whatsoever (for example \fR) and escape sequences that produce
invisible zero-width output (for example \&). No, i'm not joking,
groff does make that distinction, and it has consequences in some
situations, for example for vertical spacing in no-fill mode.
Heirloom and Plan 9 behaviour is subtly different, but in case of
doubt, we want to follow groff.
While this fixes the behaviour for the majority of escape sequences,
in particular for those most likely to occur in practice, it is not
perfect yet because some of the more exotic ESCAPE_IGNORE sequences
are actually of the "no output whatsoever" type but treated
as "invisible zero-width" for now. With the new ASCII_NBRZW mechanism
in place, switching them over one by one when the need arises will
no longer be very difficult.

Leaving the body empty is legitimate in this case if the author only
wants to display a mail address or URI without providing a link text.
Output modules already handle this correctly: terminal output shows
just the URI without an accompanying text, HTML output uses the URI
for *both* the href= attribute and as the content of the <a> element.
The documentation was also wrong and claimed that an .MT or .UR block
with an empty body would produce no output. As explained above,
this isn't true.

document, <h1> is intended for top level headers, and most of the
sections in a manual page can hardly be considered top-level.
It is more usual to use <h1> only for the main title of the document
of for the site name.
Consequently, move .Sh/.SH from <h1> to <h2> and .Ss/.SS from <h2>
to <h3>, freeing <h1> for use by header.html in man.cgi(8).

diagnostics. Distinguish "incomplete escape sequence", "invalid special
character", and "unknown special character" from the generic "invalid
escape sequence", also promoting them from WARNING to ERROR because
incomplete escape sequences are severe syntax violations and because
encountering an invalid or unknown special character makes it likely
that part of the document content intended by the authors gets lost.

in the same way as groff:
* \\ is always reduced to \
* \. is always reduced to .
* other undefined escape sequences are usually reduced to the escape name,
for example \G to G, except during the expansion of expanding escape
sequences having the standard argument form (in particular \* and \n),
in which case the backslash is preserved literally.
Yes, this is confusing indeed.
For example, the following have the same meaning:
* .ds \. and .ds . which is not the same as .ds \\.
* \*[\.] and \*[.] which is not the same as \*[\\.]
* .ds \G and .ds G which is not the same as .ds \\G
* \*[\G] and \*[\\G] which is not the same as \*[G] <- sic!
To feel less dirty, have a leaning toothpick, if you are so inclined.
This patch also slightly improves the string shown by the "escaped
character not allowed in a name" error message.

escape sequence. This is needed to get \V into the correct parsing
class, ESCAPE_EXPAND.
It is intentional that mandoc(1) output is *not* influenced by environment
variables, so interpolate the name of the variable with some decorating
punctuation rather than interpolating its value.

|
|
|

from "ignore" to "unsupported" because when an input file uses it,
mandoc(1) is likely to significantly misformat the output,

than the author intended.

after the roff_expand() reorganization in roff.c rev. 1.388.
The new parsing direction has two effects:
1. Correct output when a line contains more than one expanding
escape sequence that has a side effect.
2. Column numbers in diagnostic messages now report the changed
column numbers after any expansions left of them have taken place;
in the past, column numbers refered to the original input line.
Arguably, item 2 was a bit better in its old state, but slightly
less helpful diagnostics are a small price to pay for correct
output. Besides, when the expansion of user-defined strings or
macros is involved, in many cases, mandoc(1) is already unable to
report meaningful line and column numbers, so item 2 is not a
noteworthy regression. The effort and code complication for fixing
that would probably be excessive, in particular since well-written
manual pages are not supposed to use such features in the first place.

or macro, including context-dependent error handling inside tbl(7) code
and inside .ce/.rj blocks. Use it both in the top level roff(7) parser
and inside conditional blocks.
This fixes an assertion failure triggered by ".if 1 .ce" inside tbl(7)
code, found by tb@ using afl(1).
As a side benefit for readability, only one place remains in the
code that calls the main handler functions for the various roff(7)
requests. This patch also improves column numbers in some error
messages and various comments.

and the roff_onearg() parsing function is too generic,
so provide a dedicated parsing function instead.
This fixes an assertion failure when an \o escape sequence is
passed as the argument; the bug was found by tb@ using afl(1).
It also makes mandoc output more similar to groff in various cases.

1. The combination \z\h is a no-op whatever the argument may be.
In the past, the \z only affected the first space character generated
by the \h, which was wrong.
2. For the conbination \zX\h with a positive argument, the first
space resulting from the \h is not printed but consumed by the \z.
3. For the combination \zX\h with a negative argument, application
of the \z needs to be completed before the \h can be started.
In the past, if this combination occurred at the beginning of an
output line, the \h backed up to the beginning of the line and
after that, the \z attempted to back up even further, triggering
an assertion.
Bugs found during an audit of assignments to termp->col that i
started after the bugfix tbl_term.c rev. 1.65. The assertion
triggered by bug 3 was *not* yet found by afl(1).

This is needed because the TERMP_MULTICOL mode is designed such
that term_tbl() buffers all the cells of the table row before the
normal reset logic near the end of term_flushln() can be reached.
This fixes an assertion failure triggered by \z near the end
of a table cell, found by tb@ using afl(1).

we must not reset the recursion counter when moving beyond the end
of the *previous* expansion, but we may only do so when moving
beyond the rightmost position reached by *any* expansion in the
current equation. This matters because definitions can nest;
consider:
.EQ
define inner "content"
define outer "inner outer"
outer
.EN
This endless loop was found by tb@ using afl(1).
Incidentally, GNU eqn(1) also performs an infinite loop in this
situation and then crashes when memory runs out, but that's not an
excuse for nasty behaviour of mandoc(1).
While here, consistently print the expanded content even when the
expansion is finally truncated. While that is not likely to help
end-users, it may help authors of eqn(7) code to understand what's
going on. Besides, it sends a very clear signal that something is
amiss, which was easy to miss in the past unless people
enabled -W error or used -T lint.

whatsoever and ends with a broken next-line scope. Obviously, this
cannot happen in a real manual page, but mandoc(1) should not die
even when fed absurd input.

beginning of an escape sequence: \, \E, \EE, \EEE, and so on all do
the same outside copy mode, so let them do the same in mandoc(1), too.
This fixes an assertion failure triggered by \EE*X that tb@ found
with afl(1). The first E was consumed by roff_expand(), but that
function failed to recognize the escape sequence as the expansion
of a user-defined string and handed it over to mandoc_escape(),
which consumed the second E and then died on an assertion because
it is not prepared to handle user-defined strings. Fix this by
letting *both* functions handle arbitrary numbers of 'E's correctly.

in the tbl(7) layout font modifier.
Get rid of the TBL_CELL_BOLD and TBL_CELL_ITALIC flags and use
the usual ESCAPE_FONT* enum mandoc_esc members from mandoc.h instead,
which simplifies and unifies some code.
While here, also support CB and CI in roff(7) \f escape sequences
and in roff(7) .ft requests for all output modes. Using those is
certainly not recommended because portability is limited even with
groff, but supporting them makes some existing third-party manual
pages look better, in particular in HTML output mode.
Bug-compatible with groff as far as i'm aware, except that i consider
font names starting with the '\n' (ASCII 0x0a line feed) character
so insane that i decided to not support them.

1. Move invalid two-byte sequences after valid ones

4. Replace the unhelpful word "strange" with more descriptive terms.
Arguably, nothing about this (or maybe everything?) is strange.

This fixes a minibug reported by anton@.
Implemented by no longer relying on the typical browser default of
"pre { font-family: monospace }" but instead letting <pre> elements
inherit the font family from their parent, then adding an explicit CSS .Li
class only for those displays where the manual page author requested it
by using the -literal option on the .Bd macro.

uses roff(7) tabulator settings to implement tables, and it used
to leak the changed tabulator settings from tables to the subsequent
roff(7) code. In mandoc/tbl_term.c rev. 1.54 (June 17, 2017), code
was added to be bug-compatible with groff.
In commit d0e03cf6 (Oct 20, 2020), GNU tbl(1) changed behaviour
to save the tabulator settings before starting a table and restore
them afterwards. Adjust mandoc for compatibility.
Since mandoc implements tables without using roff(7) tabulator
settings, saving and restoring tabulator settings is not needed in
mandoc. Simply deleting the code that changed tabulator settings
by reverting tbl_term.c rev. 1.54 is sufficient in mandoc.
Also adjust the desired output of the regression tests
to match the new behaviour of both groff and mandoc.
