.
- mdocml is in plain-old ANSI C and should build and run on any UNIX system, although mandocdb requires Berkeley Database (this is
- installed by default on all BSD operating systems).
- To compile mdocml, run make, then make install to install into
- /usr/local.
- Be aware: if you have an existing groff installation,
- this may overwrite its preconv binary.
- The mandocdb utility is not yet linked to the build. You must run make
- mandocdb to build it (it does not install).

- xx-07-2011: version 1.11.5 + xx-xx-2011: version 1.11.x
- Significant eqn improvements. mdocml can now parse arbitrary equations
- (although few GNU troff 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.
+ Added demandoc utility for stripping away macros and escapes. This replaces the
+ historical deroff utility.
- 12-07-2011: version 1.11.4 + 16-08-2011: version 1.11.6
- 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 make makewhatis
- 26-05-2011: version 1.11.3 + 24-07-2011: version 1.11.5
- 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. + 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.
- 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. + This is also the first release featuring a distributed Windows binary, available at /binaries/mdocml-win32.zip.
-- 12-05-2011: version 1.11.2 -
- Corrected some installation issues in version 1.11.1.
- Further migration to libmandoc.
- Initial public release (this utility is very much under development) of mandocdbmakewhatis,
- initially named mandoc-db.
- This utility produces keyword databases of manual content
- mandoc-cgi,
- mandoc-tools,
- which features semantic querying of manual content.
