Corrected some installation issues in version 1.11.1. |
| |
Initial public release (this utility is very much under development) of <A HREF="makewhatis.1.html">makewhatis</A>, |
| |
initially named mandoc-db. |
| |
This utility produces keyword databases of manual content |
| |
<A HREF="http://mdocml.bsd.lv/mandoc-cgi/index.html">mandoc-cgi</A>, which features semantic querying of manual content. |

<P CLASS="news"> |
| |
04-04-2011: version 1.11.1 |
| |
</P> |
| |
<P> |
| |
The earlier <I>libroff</I>, <I>libmdoc</I>, and <I>libman</I> soup have been merged into |
| |
a single library, <A HREF="mandoc.3.html">libmandoc</A>, which manages all aspects of |
| |
parsing real manuals (from line-handling to <A HREF="tbl.7.html">tbl</A> parsing). |
| |
</P> |
| |
<P> |
| |
Beyond this structural change, initial <A HREF="eqn.7.html">eqn</A> functionality is in |
| |
place. For the time being, this is limited to the recognition of equation blocks; |
| |
future version of <SPAN CLASS="nm">mdocml</SPAN> will expand upon this framework. |

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. |

07-01-2011: version 1.10.9 |
| |
</P> |
| |
<P> |
| |
Many back-end fixes have been implemented: argument handling (quoting), <A |
| |
HREF="man.7.html">man</A> improvements, error/warning classes, and many more. |
| |
</P> |
| |
<P> |
| |
Initial <A HREF="tbl.7.html">tbl</A> functionality (see the <Q>TS</Q>, <Q>TE</Q>, and |
| |
<Q>T&</Q> macros in the <A HREF="roff.7.html#x5c265453">roff</A> manual) has been |
| |
merged from <A CLASS="external" HREF="http://tbl.bsd.lv">tbl.bsd.lv</A>. Output is |
| |
still minimal, especially for <SPAN CLASS="flag">-Thtml</SPAN> and <SPAN |
| |
CLASS="flag">-Txhtml</SPAN>, but manages to at least display data. This means that <A |
| |
HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A> now has built-in support for two troff preprocessors via |
| |
<DEL>libroff</DEL>: soelim and tbl. |
| |

<P CLASS="news"> |

<P> |
| |
Significant improvements merged from <A CLASS="external" |
| |
HREF="http://www.openbsd.org">OpenBSD</A> downstream, including |
| |
</P> |
| |
<UL> |
| |
<LI>many new <A HREF="roff.7.html">roff</A> components,</LI> |
| |
<LI>in-line implementation of troff's soelim,</LI> |
| |
<LI>broken-block handling,</LI> |
| |
<LI>overhauled error classifications, and</LI> |
| |
<LI>cleaned up handling of error conditions.</LI> |
| |
</UL> |
| |
<P> |
| |
Also overhauled the <SPAN CLASS="flag">-Thtml</SPAN> and <SPAN |
| |
CLASS="flag">-Txhtml</SPAN> output modes. They now display readable output in arbitrary |
| |
browsers, including text-based ones like <A CLASS="external" |
| |
HREF="http://lynx.isc.org">lynx</A>. See HTML and XHTML manuals in the <A |
| |
HREF="#documentation">DOCUMENTATION</A> section for examples. <SPAN |
| |
CLASS="attn">Attention: available style-sheet classes have been considerably |
| |
changed!</SPAN> See the <SPAN CLASS="file">example.style.css</SPAN> file for details. |
| |
Lastly, <DEL>libmdoc</DEL> and <DEL>libman</DEL> have been |
| |
cleaned up and reduced in size and complexity. |
