  * parser bugs
  ************************************************************************
+ - .TP before .SH is still FATAL in man(7)
+   reported by brad@  Sat, 15 Jan 2011 15:54:54 -0500
  - the roff parser doesn't tolerate additional characters between
    a macro and the \} terminating a conditional block, e.g.
    .if n \{
    .br \}
    reported by ulrich spoerlein  Tue, 19 Oct 2010 20:39:50 +0200
- - .BI "string string " word punct in gettext(3)
+ ************************************************************************
-   add bogus line breaks (rep by naddy@)
+ * formatter bugs
-   committed; currently working on IP and TP?
+ ************************************************************************
-   and what about B and I?
  ************************************************************************
  * missing features
  ************************************************************************
- - explicit blocks with missing end macro should be implicitely closed
+ --- missing roff features ----------------------------------------------
-   at the end of the enclosing block, e.g. .Bl It (El) Sh

+ - .ad (adjust margins)
+   .ad l -- adjust left margin only (flush left)
+   .ad r -- adjust right margin only (flush right)
+   .ad c -- center text on line
+   .ad b -- adjust both margins (alias: .ad n)
+   .na   -- temporarily disable adjustment without changing the mode
+   .ad   -- re-enable adjustment without changing the mode
+   Adjustment mode is ignored while in no-fill mode (.nf).
+ - .it (line traps) occur in mysql(1), yasm_arch(7)
+   generated by DocBook XSL Stylesheets v1.71.1 <http://docbook.sf.net/>
+   reported by brad@  Sat, 15 Jan 2011 15:48:18 -0500
+ - .ns (no-space mode) occurs in xine-config(1)
+   reported by brad@  Sat, 15 Jan 2011 15:45:23 -0500
+ - xloadimage(1) wants .ti (temporary indent), rep by naddy@
+ - .ta (tab settings) occurs in ircbug(1) and probably gnats(1)
+   reported by brad@  Sat, 15 Jan 2011 15:50:51 -0500
+ - pod2man expects `tr' to be implemented for \*(-- to work
+ --- missing mdoc features ----------------------------------------------
  - fix bad block nesting involving multiple identical explicit blocks

    .Sh .Nm .Bk .Nm .Ek .Sh found by jmc@ in ssh-keygen(1)
    from jmc@  Wed, 14 Jul 2010 18:10:32 +0100
- - auto-Bk in the SYNOPSIS
+ - \\ is now implemented correctly
-   patch from kristaps@  Fri, 16 Jul 2010 14:51:24 +0200
+   * when defining strings and macros using .ds and .de
-   to be revisited after OpenBSD 4.8 tree unlock
+   * when parsing roff(7) and man(7) macro arguments
+   It does not yet work in mdoc(7) macro arguments
+   because libmdoc does not yet use mandoc_getarg().
+   Also check what happens in plain text, it must be identical to \e.
- - implement \\
+ - .Bd -filled should not be the same as .Bd -ragged, but align both
-   in plain text, identical to \e
+   the left and right margin.  In groff, it is implemented in terms
-   as a macro argument, identical to \ i.e. escaping the next character
+   of .ad b, which we don't have either.  Found in cksum(1).
-   We do not have macro definitions yet; if we implement them,
-   \\ must behave in a macro def like in a macro argument,
-   and when using the macro, it must expand yet again.
- - implement basic non-parametric .de to support e.g. sox(1)
-   reported by naddy@ Sat, 16 Oct 2010 23:51:57 +0200
-   *** sox(1) still doesn't work, tbl(1) errors need investigation
- - clean up escape sequence handling, creating three classes:
-   (1) fully implemented, or parsed and ignored without loss of content
-   (2) unimplemented, potentially causing loss of content
-       or serious mangling of formatting (e.g. \n) -> ERROR
-       see textproc/mgdiff(1) for nice examples
-   (3) undefined, just output the character -> perhaps WARNING
- - port OpenBSD tbl integration bsd.lv, probably cleaning it up
- - look at pages generated from reStructeredText, e.g. devel/mercurial hg(1)
-   These are a weird mixture of man(7) and custom autogenerated low-level
-   roff stuff.  Figure out to what extent we can cope.

  ************************************************************************
  * formatting issues: ugly output
  ************************************************************************
  - double quotes inside double quotes are escaped by doubling them
-   implement this in man(7) and mdoc(7)
+   implement this in mdoc(7), too
+   so far, we only have it in roff(7) and man(7)

    Also have `It' complain if `Pp' is invoked at certain times (not
    -compact?).
- - .Bd -literal and .Bd -unfilled are *not* identical.
-   In -literal, tabs are 8 spaces.
-   In -unfilled, tabs are 5 spaces, just like in -filled and -ragged.
-   See the CCDF_* display in OpenBSD ccdconfig(8).
  - .Nx 1.0a
    should be "NetBSD 1.0A", not "NetBSD 1.0a",
    see OpenBSD ccdconfig(8).

- - It seems that .TP does not want TWOSPACE after the tag;
-   see bashbug(1); reported by naddy@
  - Header lines of excessive length:
    Port OpenBSD man_term.c rev. 1.25 to mdoc_term.c
    and document it in mdoc(7) and man(7) COMPATIBILITY
    found while talking to Chris Bennett
