                         This version features a new, work-in-progress <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A> output mode: -<B>Tman</B>.  This mode                          Lastly, I'm no longer providing binaries, as nobody has asked for them.
                         allows a system maintainer to distribute <A HREF="man.7.html">man</A> media for older systems that may not natively  
                         support <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc</A>, such as old Solaris systems.  
                         The -<B>Ofragment</B> option was added to <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A>'s -<B>Thtml</B> and -<B>Txhtml</B> modes.

                 <P>  
                         While adding features, an <A HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> utility has been merged from the mandoc-tools sandbox.  
                         This interfaces with <A HREF="mandocdb.8.html">mandocdb</A> for semantic search of manual content.  <A  
                         HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> is different from the traditional <B>apropos</B> primarily in allowing keyword search  
                         (such as for functions, utilities, etc.) and regular expressions.  
                         Note that the calling syntax for <B>apropos</B> is likely to change as it settles down.

                         In documentation news, the <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc</A> and <A HREF="man.7.html">man</A> manuals have been made  
                         considerably more readable by adding <I>MACRO OVERVIEW</I> sections, by moving the gory details of the <I>LANGUAGE  
                         SYNTAX</I> to the <A HREF="roff.7.html">roff</A> manual, and by moving the very technical <I>MACRO SYNTAX</I> sections  
                         down to the bottom of the page.  
                 </P>  
                 <P>  
                         Furthermore, for <A HREF="tbl.7.html">tbl</A>, the -<B>Tascii</B> mode horizontal spacing of tables was rewritten  
                         completely.  It is now compatible with <A HREF="http://www.gnu.org/software/groff/" CLASS="external">groff</A>, both  
                         with and without frames and rulers.  Nesting of indented blocks is now supported in <A HREF="man.7.html">man</A>, and  
                         several bugs were fixed regarding indentation and alignment.  The page headers in <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc</A> are now  
                         nicer for very long titles.
