- the man(7) single-font macros (e.g. .B) use .itc,

so ".B foo\c" followed by "bar" prints "bar" in bold

gbranden@ Sun, 5 Jun 2022 18:08:46 -0500

- a line starting with "\fB something" counts as starting with whitespace

and triggers a line break; found in audio/normalize-mp3(1)

This will become easier once escape sequences are represented

Line 484 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

Line 488 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

--- HTML issues --------------------------------------------------------

- .Nm without an argument and .Bx cause premature </pre>

- .Aq Mt could set and reset "white-space: nowrap";

Check whether other enclosure macros could profit from similar handling,

or whether that is covered by Unicode line-breaking classes WJ, ZW, GL, ZWJ.

Line 498 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

Line 505 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

- HTML formatting of .nf should avoid <br/>

- HTML formatting of .nf should avoid <br/>,

even when input lines start with whitespace,

and not close and re-open <pre> on .P

- tbl(7) HTML output does not implement column width specifications

Line 529 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

Line 538 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

does this affect other characters, other source macros...?

- The tables used to render the three-part page headers actually force

the width of the <body> to the max-width given for <html>.

Not yet sure how to fix that...

- generate <img> tags in HTML

idea from florian@ Tue, 7 Apr 2015 00:26:28 +0000

may be possible to implement with .Lk img://something.png alt_text

Line 593 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

Line 595 are mere guesses, and some may be wrong.

even groff_mdoc(7) uses this: Nab Sun, 5 Jun 2022 22:16:37 +0200

When implementing this, try to avoid breaking existing manuals,

or at least fix them: Jan Stary Sun, 5 Jun 2022 22:48:05 +0200

An easy partial fix would be to just skip the first word if it starts

with a dot, including any following white space, when measuring.
