 - ".\}" on its own line gets translated to bare ".\&"  
   which forces pset() into man(7)  
   and then triggers an unknown macro error  
   reported by naddy@  Sun, 3 Jul 2011 21:52:24 +0200  
   
 - .It is parsed in general, except in .Bl -diag

 * formatter bugs  
 ************************************************************************  
   
 - tbl(7): Horizontal and vertical lines are formatted badly:  
   With the box option, there is too much white space at the end of cells.  
   Horizontal lines from "=" lines are a bit too long.
