-- 26-05-2011: version 1.11.3 + 16-08-2011: version 1.11.6
- Introduce locale-encoding of output with the -Tlocale output option and Unicode escaped-character input. - See mandoc and mandoc_char, respectively, for details. - This allows for non-ASCII characters (e.g., \[u5000]) to be rendered in the locale's encoding, if said - environment supports wide-character encoding (if it does not, -Tascii is used instead). - Locale support can be turned off at compile time by removing -DUSE_WCHAR in the Makefile, in which case - -Tlocale is always a synonym for -Tascii. + Handling of tr macro in roff implemented. This makes Perl documentation much more + readable. Hyphenation is also now enabled in man format documents. Many other general + improvements have been implemented. Furthermore, a 64-bit Windows binary is now available at mdocml-win64.zip and a Mac OS X universal binary is available at mdocml-macosx.zip.
-- Furthermore, multibyte-encoded documents, such as those in UTF-8, may be on-the-fly recoded into mandoc input by using the newly-added preconv utility. - Note: in the future, this feature may be integrated into mandoc. -
-- 12-05-2011: version 1.11.2 + 24-07-2011: version 1.11.5
- Corrected some installation issues in version 1.11.1.
- Further migration to libmandoc.
- Initial public release (this utility is very much under development) of makewhatis,
- initially named mandoc-db.
- This utility produces keyword databases of manual content
- mandoc-cgi,
- mandoc-tools,
- which features semantic querying of manual content.
+ Significant eqn improvements. mdocml can now parse arbitrary eqn input
+ (although few GNU extensions are accepted, nor is mixing low-level roff with eqn). See the eqn
+ manual for details. For the time being, equations are rendered as simple in-line text. The equation parser satisfies
+ the language specified in the Second
+ Edition User's Guide.
- 04-04-2011: version 1.11.1 -
- The earlier libroff, libmdoc, and libman soup have been merged into - a single library, libmandoc, which manages all aspects of - parsing real manuals (from line-handling to tbl parsing). + This is also the first release featuring a distributed Windows binary, available at /binaries/mdocml-win32.zip.
-- Beyond this structural change, initial eqn functionality is in - place. For the time being, this is limited to the recognition of equation blocks; - future version of mdocml will expand upon this framework. +
+ 12-07-2011: version 1.11.4
- As usual, many general fixes and improvements have also occurred. In particular, a great
- deal of redundancy and superfluous code has been removed with the merging of the backend
- libraries.
+ Bug-fixes and clean-ups across all systems, especially in mandocdb makewhatis (note: still not
+ connected to the general build and must be compiled with make mandocdb
) and the man parser. This release was significantly assisted by participants in OpenBSD's c2k11. Thanks!
