It was never enabled in any release. + * Delete the -Txhtml command line option. It has been an obsolete + alias for the -Thtml output mode for more than two years. + --- MINOR NEW FEATURES --- + * -Tlint now puts parser messages on stdout instead of stderr, + making commands like "man -l -Tlint *.1" useful. + * mdoc(7): Various .Lk formatting improvements. + * mdoc(7) -Thtml: Better CSS for .Bl lists. + * man(7): Implement the .MT/.ME block macro (mailto hyperlink). + * man(7): Implement the .DT macro (restore default tab positions). + * man(7): Improved support for manuals generated with reStructuredText + by partial support for the \n[an-margin] number register. + * man(7) -Thtml: Support deep linking to .SH and .SS headers. + * tbl(7): Implement the "allbox" table option. + * tbl(7): Implement the column spacing and the 'w' (minimum column + width) layout modifiers. + * tbl(7): Significant improvements of the manual page. + * eqn(7): Much improved font selection, including recognition of + well-known function names, and a few other formatting improvements. + * eqn(7) -Thtml: Use and in addition to . + * roff(7): Implement the .ce (centering), .mc (margin character), + .rj (right justify), .ta (define tab stops), .ti (temporary indent), + .als (macro alias), .ec and .eo (escape character control), + .po (page offset), and .rn (macro rename) requests. + * roff(7) .am: Implement appending to mdoc(7) and man(7) macros. + * roff(7): implement the \h (horizontol motion), \l (horizontal + line drawing), and \p (break output line) escape sequences, + and also several additional character escape sequences. + * roff(7): Implement the 'd' conditional (macro or string defined). + * man.cgi(8) now uses pledge(2), too. + * regress.pl(1): simpler user interface, better summary output, + simpler code, and no more recursion. + --- THANKS TO --- + * Anthony Bentley (OpenBSD) for the implementation of .MT/.ME, + reports of many bugs and missing features, and suggestions + for a number of feature and documentation improvements. + * Sebastien Marie (OpenBSD) for two source code patches and + for some useful discussions. + * Florian Obser (OpenBSD) for a bugfix patch and a bug report. + * Jonathan Gray (OpenBSD) for several bug reports from afl(1) + and several more from static analysis tools. + * Theo Buehler (OpenBSD) for several bug reports, most from afl(1). + * Jason McIntyre (OpenBSD) for many useful discussions about a + wide variety of topics, lots of continuous testing, a number of + bug reports, and some suggestions for messages and documentation. + * Thomas Klausner (NetBSD) for lots of help while migrating + mdoclint(1) functionality to mandoc -Tlint, for suggesting + several useful new messages, and for release testing. + * Reyk Floeter (OpenBSD) and Vsevolod Stakhov (FreeBSD) for + suggesting a markdown output mode. + * Thomas Guettler for suggesting -Thtml internal hyperlinks. + * Yuri Pankov (Illumos) for inspiring new warning messages and + for extensive release testing. + * Anton Lindqvist and TJ Townsend (both OpenBSD) and Jan Stary + for multiple bug reports. + * Leah Neukirchen (Void Linux) for bug reports and release testing. + * Michael Stapelberg (Debian) for suggesting feature improvements + and for release testing. + * Martin Natano and Theo de Raadt (both OpenBSD), Andreas Voegele, + Gabriel Guzman, Gonzalo Tornaria, Markus Waldeck, and Raf Czlonka + for bug reports. + * Antoine Jacoutot (OpenBSD) and Steffen Nurpmeso for suggesting + feature improvements. + * Dag-Erling Smoergrav (FreeBSD) for inspiring new warning messages. + * Ted Unangst and Marc Espie (OpenBSD) for providing useful ideas. + * Svyatoslav Mishyn (Crux Linux) for release testing. + * Carsten Kunze (Heirloom roff) for help keeping mandoc and groff + compatible and for committing some of my patches to groff. + +Changes in version 1.14.1, released on February 21, 2017 + + --- MAJOR NEW FEATURES --- * apropos(1): Reimplement complete semantic search functionality without the dependency on SQLite3, using only POSIX APIs.
