From d56618f792fbd91155cc01ffb13ca4081263cae6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Schwarze Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2017 15:26:41 +0000 Subject: For -Tlint, put parser messages on stdout instead of stderr. 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". --- mandoc.1 | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'mandoc.1') diff --git a/mandoc.1 b/mandoc.1 index 138628a7..59457af1 100644 --- a/mandoc.1 +++ b/mandoc.1 @@ -238,7 +238,9 @@ See .It Fl T Cm lint Parse only: produce no output.
