Currently, \\ is expanded in two situations: |
Also, the "val" field in struct roffkv would have to be replaced |
1) macro and string definition (roff.c setstrn()) |
with a pointer to a reference-counted wrapper, and an alias |
2) macro argument parsing (mandoc.c mandoc_getarg()) |
would have to point to the same wrapper as the original. |
For user defined macros, the second happens in time because of ROFF_REPARSE. |
.als to undefined does nothing; the alias is not created. |
But for standard high-level macros, it only happens after entering the |

This may not be the ideal solution after all: eqn(7) matrices |
loc * exist * algo * size * imp ** |
are lists of columns, so Avi's proposal would show each *column* |

A better solution, but much harder to implement, would be to |

actually show the coordinates of column vectors on different |

terminal output lines, using the clumnated output facilities |

- GNU eqn converts some operators to special characters, for example, |

input HYPHEN-MINUS becomes output \(mi, unless it is part of a |

surrounded by blanks, not when it is part of an unquoted word. |
|
Also, check whether there are more such cases (e.g., +?). |

Several areas can be cleaned up to make mandoc even faster. These are |
|
|
|
- improve hashing mechanism for macros (quite important: performance) |
|
|
|
- the PDF file is HUGE: this can be reduced by using relative offsets |

- .Cd # arch1, arch2 in section 4 pages: |
|
find better way to indicate multiple architectures, maybe: |
|
allow .Dt vgafb 4 "macppc sparc64" |
|
already shown as "Device Drivers Manual (macppc sparc64)" |
|
for apropos, make that "vgafb(4) - macppc # sparc64" instead of "- all" |
|
groff can be made to show multiple arches, too, but it is |
|
tedious to do the string parsing in roff code... |
