+
+ [ms]: Offer advice to users of PDF who want a table of contents
+ at the front of the document.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (ms Document Structure): Move mention of
+ pdfjam(1) from here...
+ (ms TOC): ...to here, and identify alternatives, including
+ gropdf(1)'s `pdfswitchtopage` macro.
+
+ * doc/ms.ms (General structure of an ms document):
+ (Creating a table of contents): Similar.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64278>. Thanks to Michał
+ Kruszewski for the report.
+
+2023-06-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Migrate terminology to "scaling unit".
+
+ ...from "scaling indicator".
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?60957>. Thanks to Ingo
+ Schwarze for the discussion.
+
+2023-05-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Revise discussion of fonts.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi:
+ - Rename node/section "Fonts and Symbols" to "Using Fonts". Add
+ giant new introduction, properly establishing terminology.
+ - Rename node/section "Changing Fonts" to "Selecting Fonts".
+ Shift location of `.fn` and `.sty` register documentation.
+ Rewrite presentation of `ft` and `\f`. Discuss typeface
+ selection by mounting position and font (or style) name
+ together; since arguments to these formatter instructions are
+ always interpreted as mounting positions first, it doesn't
+ make much sense to me to present them separately, and the new
+ introduction provides the necessary background. Tighten
+ example. Document that current and previous font selections
+ are environment properties.
+ - Add several concept index entries.
+ - Do more migration from "symbol" and "glyph" names to "special
+ character" names.
+
+ * man/groff.7 (Using fonts): Introduce new section, synced with
+ the renamed node from our Texinfo manual above.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62973>.
+
+2023-05-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Revise "Page Layout" material.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi:
+ - Recast generally.
+ - Describe behavior of `pl` in more detail.
+ - Migrate terminology from "scaling indicator" to "scaling
+ unit".
+ - Stop discussing page margins in the context of the `pl`
+ request.
+ - Move concept index entries regarding margins from here to
+ "Traps".
+ - Move discussion of `pn` request to precede `tl` request.
+ - Add concept index entries.
+ - Recast description of `tl` request. Migrate terminology from
+ "justification" to "alignment".
+ - Recast description of `lt` request. Describe behavior in more
+ detail.
+ - Recast description of `pc` request.
+ - Add example of `lt` and `tl` usage. Add forward reference to
+ "Traps", mentioning page header and footer traps.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55124>. Thanks to Dave
+ Kemper for the report.
+
+2023-05-22 Dave Kemper <saint.snit@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Correct minor punctuation, grammar, and spelling issues.
+
+ Also remove a couple instances of unnecessarily telling the
+ reader to note something.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi:
+ * man/groff.7.man:
+ * man/groff_char.7.man:
+ * man/groff_diff.7.man:
+ * man/roff.7.man:

+ more fixes. --GBR]
+
+2023-04-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Attempt to further clarify end-of-sentence detection.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Sentences):
+ * man/roff.7 (Concepts): Do it.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64091>. Thanks to Ingo
+ Schwarze and Dave Kemper for the report.
+
+2023-04-14 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Minimally document `tag`, `taga` requests.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Postprocessor Access):
+ * man/groff.7 (Request short reference): Do it.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62695>.
+
+2023-04-11 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Fix typos.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (ms basic information):
+ * doc/ms.ms (Basic information): Do it.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64032>. Thanks to an
+ anonymous reporter.
+
+2023-03-07 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Operators in Conditionals):
+ * man/groff.7.in (Conditional expressions): Clarify how the
+ output comparison operator is recognized.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63812>. Thanks to John
+ Gardner for the report.
+
+2023-03-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Use a better type for symbol hashes.
+
+ * bootstrap.conf: Add "stdint" module to ensure that the
+ `uintptr_t` type is available.
+ * src/include/symbol.h: Include <stdint.h> for `uintptr_t`.
+ (class symbol):
+ (symbol::hash): Change return type from `unsigned long`, which
+ causes build failures on 64-bit MinGW, to `uintptr_t`.
+ (symbol::hash): Use a C++ type cast, not a C-style one.
+
+ Thanks to Bruno Haible for reporting the build failure in the
+ 64-bit MinGW environment, and for suggesting a remedy.
+
+2023-03-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [groff]: Revise a test to be more revealing.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/initialization_is_quiet.sh: Stop using
+ "set -e". Instead use `fail` variable and `wail` function (and
+ lowercase names for our internal variables) like many of our
+ other tests. If the "unset" shell built-in fails, skip the
+ test (prompted by /usr/xpg4/bin/sh on Solaris). Attempt every
+ groff locale, with and without compatibility mode initially
+ enabled, instead of stopping at the first failure. Report
+ standard error and standard output content separately. Use
+ groff's `-a` flag to prepare the standard output, for
+ readability.
+ * PROBLEMS: Document that this test might be skipped rather than
+ failing on Solaris. (What actually happens depends on which
+ shell you run it with, and we advise a variety of approaches.)
+
+ Thanks to Bruno Haible for feedback regarding mysterious
+ failures of this test on GNU/Hurd and NetBSD systems.
+
+2023-03-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add "stdbool-c99" per
+ recommendation from Bruno Haible.
+
+ Fixes build problem on Solaris using Sun compiler.
+
+2023-03-06 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+ * Makefile.am (AR): Remove hardcoded value. Let Automake use the
+ value from config.status.
+
+ {Fixes build problem on 64-bit AIX. Problem appears to date
+ back to commit 5fec19d453, 2014-08-15. --GBR}
+
+2023-03-06 Bruno Haible <bruno@clisp.org>
+
+ * arch/misc/misc.am (shdeps.sed): Rename target from this...
+ ($(SH_DEPS_SED_SCRIPT)): ...to this, to work better with make(1)
+ on FreeBSD, NetBSD, and AIX.
+
+2023-03-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Discard now-unneeded Autoconf macro and variables.
+
+ * configure.ac: Stop calling `GROFF_POPPLER`. Stop populating
+ the Automake conditional `HAVE_PDFTOOLS`. Eliminate chatter
+ about their availability in the configuration report.
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_POPPLER): Delete.
+
+2023-03-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Adapt wording of notice
+ to presence and identity of Ghostscript interpreter command.
+ Clarify that it is gropdf(1) specifically that traverses the
+ Ghostscript search path reported by its "-h" option.
+
+ Continues <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63808>. Thanks to
+ Deri James for the ongoing discussion.
+
+2023-02-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [devpdf]: Revise tests.
+
+ * font/devpdf/tests/check-default-foundry.sh.in: Test only the
+ base 14 fonts of the PDF standard unconditionally. Test the
+ remainder from the set of 35 commonly distributed only if a
+ Ghostscript interpreter was detected at configuration time,
+ because the latter fonts _must_ be embedded in PDF documents.
+ If they're not present, skip the test rather than failing it.
+ * font/devpdf/tests/check-urw-foundry.sh.in: Skip test if no URW
+ fonts detected at configuration time, rather than failing it.
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GROPDF_PROGRAM_NOTICE)
+ (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Drop warnings of expected test
+ failures. The tests no longer fail in the anticipated
+ circumstances.
+
+2023-02-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [devpdf]: Generate tests from template files, so we can populate
+ the test scripts with information determined at configuration.
+ The default foundry test depends on $GHOSTSCRIPT, and the URW
+ foundry test on $urwfontsdir.
+
+ * font/devpdf/tests/check-default-foundry.sh:
+ * font/devpdf/tests/check-urw-foundry.sh: Rename these...
+ * font/devpdf/tests/check-default-foundry.sh.in:
+ * font/devpdf/tests/check-urw-foundry.sh.in: ...to these.
+
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am (font_devpdf_default_test)
+ (font_devpdf_urw_test): New variables store names of generated
+ test scripts.
+ (font/devpdf/tests/check-default-foundry.sh):
+ (font/devpdf/tests/check-urw-foundry.sh): New targets produce
+ test scripts from corresponding .in files.
+
+2023-02-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [devpdf]: Trivially refactor. Rename sed-substitutum [Lat.]
+ from "@GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_INTERPRETERS@" to "@GHOSTSCRIPT@" for
+ clarity and brevity; this is a scalar value containing the
+ Autoconf-determined name of the Ghostscript interpreter. It is
+ not the same as the replacement that occurs in contrib/pdfmark.
+
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am:
+ * font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries.pl: Do it.
+
+2023-02-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Stop scraping output of Ghostscript executable with
+ "-h" option to attempt to find URW fonts. Fonts that ship with
+ Ghostscript are regarded as the "default" foundry, not the URW
+ foundry (though they often ultimately originate with URW fonts).
+ They are often missing Adobe Font Metric (AFM) files, so it is
+ impossible for groff to generate font description files for them
+ at build time.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK): Drop `AC_REQUIRE` on
+ `GROFF_AWK_PATH`. Drop awk-based scraping of Ghostscript "-h"
+ output. Annotate need for sync between this list of
+ characteristic font file names and the one in BuildFoundries.
+
+ Thanks to Deri James for the ongoing discussions.
+
+2023-02-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Drop now-redundant explicit
+ `GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK`. `GROFF_GROPDF_DEPENDENCIES_CHECK`
+ `AC_REQUIRE`s it as of commit ec001d2a23, 18 February.
+
+2023-02-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK): When looking for a
+ characteristic URW font by its file name, also check for
+ "URWGothic-Book" with no file extension. Avoids false negatives
+ in URW Type 1 font detection when using Ghostscript 9.53.3.
+ Thanks to Deri James for suggesting the test procedure that
+ uncovered this flaw.
+
+2023-02-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (uninstall_groffdirs): Remove "html.mono" and
+ "html.node" directories corresponding to HTML version of our
+ Texinfo manual.
+ * doc/doc.am (uninstall-html): Uninstall HTML version of our
+ Texinfo manual more reliably.
+
+ Fixes a regression introduced by me in commit c2698aade, 6 April
+ {my claim "we're only deleting files with this command, not
+ directories" was not correct}.
+
+2023-02-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [doc]: Handle output formats of our Texinfo manual more
+ consistently.
+
+ * doc/doc.am (install-doc): Add dependency on (Automake
+ standard) target 'install-dvi'.
+ (maintainer-clean-local): Remove our Texinfo manual in plain
+ text format.
+ (install-data-local): Add dependency on new target
+ 'install-txt'.
+ (install-txt): Install our Texinfo manual in plain text format.
+ (uninstall-local): Add dependency on new target 'uninstall-txt'.
+ (uninstall-txt): Uninstall our Texinfo manual in plain text
+ format.
+
+ Thanks to T. Kurt Bond for noticing the discrepancy.
+
+2023-02-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (install-pdf-local, install-html-local): Enable
+ rules to work in out-of-tree builds.
+
+2023-02-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (uninstall-hook): Drop dependency on
+ "uninstall_mom"; this is not the appropriate place to declare
+ it, and "uninstall_groffdirs" already depends on it in mom's
+ Automake file.
+
+2023-02-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [tests]: Have more tests report output.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/ab_works.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/handle_special_input_code_points.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/initialization_is_quiet.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/msoquiet_works.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/soquiet_works.sh:
+ * tmac/tests/an-ext_MR-works.sh:
+ * tmac/tests/an_MR-works.sh: Do it.
+
+2023-02-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [tests]: Prevent failures when $GROFF_ENCODING is set.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/ab_works.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/handle_special_input_code_points.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/initialization_is_quiet.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/msoquiet_works.sh:

+ * tmac/tests/an-ext_MR-works.sh:
+ * tmac/tests/an_MR-works.sh:
+ * tmac/tests/an_font-remapping-does-not-affect-titles.sh: Unset
+ $GROFF_ENCODING before running test because preconv(1) confounds
+ these tests.
+
+ Thanks to Alexis for reporting this problem.
+
+2023-02-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [ms]: Rename test.
+
+ * tmac/tests/s_no-excess-space-around-displays.tmac: Rename...
+ * tmac/tests/s_no-excess-space-around-displays.sh: ...to this.
+ * tmac/tmac.am (tmac_TESTS): Update.
+
+2023-02-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [gropdf]: Revise tests to run unconditionally, rather than
+ configuring them away at build time, which can cause a
+ distribution archive to be incorrectly structured. Update
+ configuration notices when optional dependencies are absent.
+
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am (font_devpdf_TESTS): Remove `USE_GROPDF`
+ and `HAVE_URW_FONTS` conditionals.
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GROPDF_PROGRAM_NOTICE):
+ (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Warn reader that a gropdf test failure
+ is to be expected.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63824> (2/2).
+
+2023-02-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [grohtml]: Revise tests to check for requisite programs at test
+ time and skip if not found, rather than configuring them away at
+ build time, which can cause a distribution archive to be
+ incorrectly structured.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4: Annotate requisite program list since we're
+ violating the DRY principle.
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.am (groff_TESTS): Populate
+ unconditionally.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/html_works_with_grn_and_eqn.sh:
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/smoke-test_html_device.sh: Check for
+ requisite programs and skip test if any are not found.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63824> (1/2).
+
+2023-02-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [man pages]: Define page-local `MR` fallback.
+
+ [man pages]: Provide page-local fallback definition of new `MR`
+ macro. I didn't think I was going to have to do this, but the
+ premier site on the web for viewing Linux man pages, Michael
+ Kerrisk's man7.org, has been pulling snapshots of the pages
+ themselves without upgrading the underlying macros, and so man
+ page cross references set with `MR` are getting lost in its
+ presentations. (I acknowledge: Ingo Schwarze warned me
+ something like this could happen.) This definition is intended
+ as a stopgap measure only. I want to revert this after groff
+ 1.23 is released and has spread to some reasonable degree.

+2023-02-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/tests/an_TS-do-not-keep-tables-when-cR-set.sh: Improve
+ portability of script by using shell constructs instead of the
+ nonstandard GNU coreutils 'seq' utility. Resolves test failure
+ on Solaris 10.
+ * HACKING: Document this problem.
+
+2023-02-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_MAKE_DEFINES_RM): Test the make(1) in the
+ environment variable $MAKE if defined, not a literal "make".
+ Required on (some) Solaris 10 configurations where traditional
+ make(1) is not installed but GNU make is installed as "gmake".
+
+2023-02-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/tests/latin2_works.sh: Fix missing backslash in printf.
+ Solaris printf(1) was sensitive to this error; macOS and GNU
+ printf were not. Fixes a test failure on Solaris 11.
+
+2023-02-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/regression_savannah_58153.sh: Improve
+ portability. Avoid the unpredictability of implementations when
+ putting backslashes inside a groff-piped printf shell command
+ inside a here document inside a command substitution by changing
+ the groff escape character to something meaningless to the shell
+ and to printf ('@'). Fixes a test failure on Solaris 11.
+
+2023-02-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/Foundry.in: Recognize URW foundry replacements for

+ respectively.
+
+2023-02-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (uninstall-pdf): Clean more fastidiously; try to
+ remove the configured `pdfdocdir` in the event it is empty, but
+ do not fail if it isn't. (It can be a directory shared with
+ other groff components; we don't know in what order the
+ uninstall targets will serialize, but the last one run should
+ succeed.)
+
+2023-02-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Detangle "pdfroff" and "gropdf" configuration (2/2).
+
+ * m4/groff.m4: Give pdfroff its own Autoconf macros to handle
+ dependency checking, build objectives, and user notice.
+ (GROFF_PDFROFF_DEPENDENCIES_CHECK): New macro requires
+ `GROFF_AWK_PATH` and `GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_PATH`, determines
+ whether pdfroff can be used at build time, and (if not)

+ (GROFF_PDFROFF_PROGRAM_NOTICE): New macro requires

+ (GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_AVAILABILITY_NOTICE): Drop mention of impact
+ on pdfroff since its dedicated notice covers this now.
+ * configure.ac: Call the new macros at appropriate times.

+
+2023-02-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Detangle "pdfroff" and "gropdf" configuration (1/2).
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GROPDF_DEPENDENCIES_CHECK): Add
+ `AC_REQUIRE`ment on `GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK`. Per discussion
+ with Deri James, if _either_ Ghostscript or the URW fonts are
+ avilable, gropdf will be fully functional, consequent to commit
+ d5515, 22 June. Drop dependency on awk; it is used only at
+ configuration time (in an Autoconf macro) and since Savannah
+ #62775 was resolved (19 September), it has not been strictly
+ necessary. (It is useful for searching more locations for URW
+ fonts, but several others are searched even if it is absent.)
+ Stop populating notice text here, instead moving it...
+ (GROFF_GROPDF_PROGRAM_NOTICE): ...here, since it no longer needs
+ to be dynamically constructed.

+2023-02-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [gropdf]: Don't run automated tests if 'gropdf' will be

+ descriptions for the default and URW foundries.

+
+ * configure.ac: Add Automake conditional, `HAVE_GHOSTSCRIPT`, so
+ that we can populate the list of PDF device font tests
+ dynamically. Call new macro
+ `GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_AVAILABILITY_NOTICE`. Call
+ `GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_VERSION_NOTICE` after it, but before
+ `GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE`.
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_AWK_NOTICE): New macro produces warning if
+ no awk could be found. This reduces gropdf functionality, but
+ so do missing URW fonts, so we report this problem separately.
+ Report the names under which we sought it, since there's a
+ configure script option for that.
+ (GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_AVAILABILITY_NOTICE): New macro explains
+ consequences of missing optional dependency on Ghostscript
+ program: reduced grohtml functionality, nonfunctional pdfroff.
+ Report the names under which we sought it, since there's a
+ configure script option for that.
+ (GROFF_CHECK_GROPDF_PROGRAMS): Better characterize gropdf's
+ reduced function, pointing out the ways in which it would be
+ more useful if the dependencies were met. Also simplify the
+ computational grammar.
+ (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Identify 'U' as the foundry name
+ gropdf uses for the URW fonts. Confirm continuing availability
+ of most recent URW fonts release; bump date.
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am: Test availability of "basic" (PDF base
+ 14) fonts (plus groff's "EURO") if either Ghostscript or URW
+ fonts are available. Test availability of URW fonts (35) only
+ if Ghostscript _and_ the URW fonts were found at configuration

+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_VERSION_CHECK,

+ (GROFF_GROHTML_PROGRAM_NOTICE): Add macro dependency on
+ `GROFF_CHECK_GROHTML_PROGRAMS`, which should have been there
+ already.
+
+ (GROFF_CHECK_GROHTML_PROGRAMS, GROFF_PNMTOOLS_CAN_BE_QUIET):
+ Move `AC_REQUIRE` expansions to precede shell variable

+ clobber the assignments we're making).
+
+2023-02-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/tests/basic-fonts-present.sh: Revise test again,
+ per feedback from Deri James. Even without Ghostscript or URW
+ fonts available, gropdf can generate valid PDF documents; it
+ simply can't embed fonts in general (without further
+ arrangements made on the host system), which means it is
+ restricted to the PDF base 14 fonts. That's enough for many
+ purposes, including generating our compiled man pages document
+ {with minor degradations to the typeface lists in gropdf(1) and
+ grops(1)}. Drop the 'gs' command check, which also didn't check
+ for the name of the Ghostscript interpreter determined by the
+ "configure" script. Replace dynamically generated font list
+ with a static one (the base 14 fonts plus groff's EURO).
+
+2023-02-13 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/tests/basic-fonts-present.sh: Revise test.
+ Improve explanation of why we're looking for the gs(1) command
+ in a font availability test. Prefix diagnostic output with name
+ of test script. Perform a search for the 'ps' device font
+ descriptions that will work in more build scenarios (i.e., don't
+ assume an out-of-tree build taking place in an immediate
+ subdirectory of the source). Distinguish failure to find the
+ font descriptions from a failure to locate the 'gs' command,
+ skipping the test in both scenarios. Reduce noise in output.
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_CHECK_GROPDF_PROGRAMS): Revise warning
+ issued when awk and Ghostscript are unavailable; gropdf will not
+ be completely inoperative. Characterize its reduced function.
+
+ Thanks to Deri James in <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/\

+
+ * tmac/tests/latin2_works.sh:

+ * tmac/tests/latin9_works.sh: Port to work around macOS's

+
+ [mdoc]: Port a test to work with macOS sed.

+
+2023-02-13 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/tests/basic-fonts-present.sh: Skip test if 'gs'
+ command not available. The test is to ensure that gropdf will
+ produce sound documents using the base fonts from PostScript,
+ but since gropdf requires Ghostscript to do this (as noted in
+ our "./configure" messages), it makes no sense to validate font
+ availability if the program is absent. Resolves test failure

+
+ [tbl]: Fix bugs using boxes or vertical rules at table edges on
+ nroff devices, particularly when combined with region or column
+ expansion.
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.h (class table): Add `GAP_EXPAND`
+ enumeration constant. James Clark seems to have designed GNU
+ tbl carefully to avoid distinguishing region expansion from
+ column expansion in a categorical way, but I needed a way for
+ formatting-time logic to know which was in use. (Column
+ expansion, the "x" modifier, expands columns--i.e., text.
+ Region expansion expands [or compresses] the _gaps_ between
+ columns.)
+ * src/preproc/tbl/main.cpp (process_options): Set `GAP_EXPAND`
+ flag in table if "expand" region option seen.
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp: Add new macro `LEFTOVER_FACTOR_REG`
+ to name a new roff register for the remainder of gap-expansion
+ space when the amount of space available for expansion is
+ divided by the number of gaps.
+ (table::compute_overall_width): If _not_ expanding a table in
+ either respect and in nroff mode, reduce line length by 1n for
+ each of any left and right border (because the vertical lines
+ eat character cells). This prevents bordered or boxed tables
+ from being overset even when they use neither expansion feature.
+ (table::compute_separation_factor): If gap-expanding a table,
+ store any remainder from the division used to compute the
+ separation factor into the new `LEFTOVER_FACTOR_REG`.
+ (table::compute_column_positions): Insert that remainder into
+ the gap before the last (rightmost) column of the table. This
+ _could_ be done more elegantly by spreading each en in a
+ symmetric way across a subset of the gaps. (It is necessarily a
+ subset by the pigeonhole principle.) But it didn't seem worth
+ the effort for a feature (region expansion) that few users
+ employ. (Usually what you want is the "x" column modifier.)
+ Alternatively, "forget it, Jake--it's a terminal emulator".
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/tbl.am (tbl_XFAIL_TESTS): Remove now-passing
+ tests.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63640> and

+
+2023-02-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp (table::compute_column_positions):
+ Stop multiplying the gaps at the left and right edges of a table
+ {which occur when it is boxed or has a leading and/or trailing
+ vertical line} by the column separation factor. Only interior
+ column gaps should be spread. This change prevents tables using
+ the "expand" region option from being overset (exceeding the
+ line length), but might not (yet) fully expand to that length on
+ low-resolution devices due to integer roundoff.

+
+ [tbl]: Refactor.
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp:
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.h: Rename `compute_expand_width` to

+ _all_ tables, not just those undergoing column or gap expansion.
+ For instance, in a post-groff 1.22.4 development, it throws a
+ diagnostic if an unexpanded table overruns the line length.
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp (table::compute_widths): Update call
+ site of `compute_overall_width`.
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp: Split the roff register behind the
+ `EXPAND_REG` C++ preprocessor macro into two, adding
+ `AVAILABLE_WIDTH_REG`. Annotate the distinction.
+ (compute_overall_width): Annotate. Move and conditionalize

+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac: Move the saving of the hyphenation mode from

+ (mY): ...this new macro.
+ (SY, mQ, MR): Call `mY` before disabling hyphenation.
+
+ Problem introduced by me in commit 096c2f0567, 16 February.
+ "an-ext.tmac" gets sourced by "an.tmac" before any
+ command-line setting of the `HY` register is handled, so (for
+ groff) the stored hyphenation mode was the default for the
+ language, not reflecting user disablement. The synopsis macros,
+ which do not have an alternate implementation in "an.tmac" for
+ leverage of groff features, were causing hyphenation to be
+ resurrected (after `YS`) even if the user had disabled it.
+ Saving the hyphenation mode anew upon entry to these macros is
+ arguably inefficient, but it is more correct since a man page
+ could conceivably manipulate the automatic hyphenation mode
+ {even if that's not recommended outside of tbl(1) text blocks}.
+
+2023-01-08 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [man]: Add regression test for hyphenation getting wrongly
+ restored by `YS`, `ME`, `UE`, and `MR` macros.

+ break--which is ugly anyway and should be avoided, but the

+ [troff]: Trivially refactor. Rename class `constant_reg` to
+ `readonly_text_register`. Say "readonly" instead of "const" to
+ try to avoid confusion with C++ constness. Say "text" because
+ this class is _mostly_ used for interpolation of string-valued
+ registers like the version registers `.x`, `.y` and `.Y`.
+ Nevertheless there are some abuses (apparently because the
+ constructors for register classes don't accept integer
+ parameters for initialization--why?).

+
+2022-11-11 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac (UR, MT): Fix problem with incorrect line
+ lengths and occasional "can't adjust" warnings when using
+ hyperlinks. Reduce the line length within the diversion by the
+ amount of indentation used in the context. Without this, lines
+ were getting set too short. (You might think they'd be too
+ long, but when creating a new environment, the _formatter's_
+ default line length is used; that's 65n on terminal devices.)

+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am: Refactor.
+ (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Populate macro incrementally, adjacent to

+ enable cleaner refactoring in the future.
+ (DEFAULT_BASE35_FONTS): Add new macro storing the targets of the
+ PostScript Level 2 standard base 35 font descriptions.
+ (devpdffont_DATA): Populate using `DEFAULT_BASE35_FONTS`.
+ (URW_BASE35_FONTS): Add new macro, empty if [!HAVE_URW_FONTS];
+ and [HAVE_URW_FONTS] otherwise naming the `U` foundry font
+ description counterparts of the `DEFAULT_BASE35_FONTS`.
+ (devpdffont_DATA): Append `URW_BASE35_FONTS`.
+ ($(DEFAULT_BASE35_FONTS) $(URW_BASE35_FONTS)): Assert dependency
+ on "font/devpdf/download". This isn't literally true, but
+ BuildFoundries generates all of these together, so if the
+ "font/devpdf/download" target rule runs successfully, the font
+ description files named in these macro expansions will be
+ generated too.

+ in commit bf7f6862c3, 2021-09-24, I made libgroff complain if
+ this directive is missing (since any font, even a "special" one,
+ can be selected as current and the formatter's behavior when

+
+ * tmac/doc.tmac (Nm): If in the "Name" section of the page, set

+ handling them...normally. Since `Nm`'s usual behavior is to set
+ the next argument in boldface, in this circumstance it is set in

+
+ * tmac/mdoc/doc-nroff (doc-Li-Font): Switch from roman to bold.
+ On typesetters, the use of Courier (roman) plainly distinguishes
+ unquoted literals from their context. On terminals there was no
+ such visible distinction. Fortunately, in groff_mdoc(7) itself,
+ this does not result in a blinding blitz of boldface because the
+ `Ql` (quoted literal) macro is so often used, and it maintains
+ the roman style. This change further aligns groff mdoc(7) with
+ groff man(7) style conventions. (Also see how we handle
+ literals for typesetters and terminals in the "ms.ms" document.)

+ - empty_name_warning -> diagnose_missing_identifier
+ - non_empty_name_warning -> diagnose_invalid_identifier
+ (diagnose_missing_identifier): Refer to absent operand as
+ "identifier", not "name", in diagnostic messages since the
+ latter (strictly) refers to the request/macro/string/diversion
+ name space, and this function is also used to gather register
+ identifiers.

+
+ * tmac/mdoc/doc-common: Call new macro (see below)
+ `doc-set-up-continuous-rendering` when initializing, if that

+ amount in the argument or by 1v if none given.
+ (doc-bp): New macro replaces `bp` request in continuous
+ rendering mode, setting the page length to the vertical drawing
+ position.
+ (doc-set-up-continuous-rendering): New macro renames requests to
+ emplace the foregoing.
+ (Dd): Interpret this macro call strictly as starting a new
+ mdoc(7) document. (andoc.tmac already makes this assumption,
+ and has for over 20 years. groff_mdoc(7) and mandoc_mdoc(7)
+ also prescribe the sequence `Dd`, `Dt`, `Os`.) We require this
+ invariant even more rigidly now because it's the only way we can
+ be sure that we can process multiple documents while rendering
+ headers and footers with information corresponding to the
+ appropriate document. (man(7)'s `TH` has an advantage here in
+ that calling it is "atomic": from its arguments alone you can
+ obtain everything you need to know to format the header and
+ footer. In mdoc(7), permuting the initialization macro order
+ reliably produces chaos.) Break the page (if necessary)
+ _before_ processing any arguments (instead of after), to flush
+ the previous page's footer. Stop calling `doc-set-up-titles`
+ here; we don't have enough information to do that yet. Also
+ stop writing the PDF bookmark here, because `doc-document-title`
+ and `doc-section` will not reflect the new page content yet.
+ (Os): Once the `doc-operating-system` string content has been
+ determined, call `doc-set-up-titles`, write the PDF bookmark for
+ the page, and call `doc-header`, causing the page header to be
+ formatted. These changes further imply a stronger requirement
+ on initialization macro ordering being canonical.

+ Bug #62934 - after glyph remapped mark it as used
+
+ When many glyphs are remapped from code points above 255
+ such as writing documents in cyrillic with the U-TR fonts,
+ gropdf starts reusing code points in the range 128-255.
+ If subsequently one of those code points is actually required,
+ such as \(em (code 138), and it has been replaced by a
+ cyrillic, then it needs to be mapped to another free code.
+
+ To determine if a particular code point is free each glyph
+ has a USED flag. The bug was caused because after remapping
+ \(em to the next free glyph the USED flag was not set. So the
+ next new cyrillic character to be entered was given the same
+ code point as had been allocated to \(em.

+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PAGE): Macro used awk(1) without

+ Fortunately, sed is powerful enough for our needs. Remove
+ dependency on awk. Cope with "search" directive in resolv.conf
+ having multiple arguments. Match "domain" directive in same

+ (char_buffer::read_file): Call `sys_fatal()` if `fread()`
+ returns an error, similarly to other calls into the standard C

+ `fread()` by not regarding a return value of zero when the
+ end-of-file indicator is set as an error condition.
+ (makeFileName, checkImageDir, char_buffer::run_output_filter,

+ (char_buffer::run_output_filter): Stop passing unnecessary null
+ pointer argument to diagnostic message functions. Stop calling
+ `fflush()` after libgroff diagnostic function, which always
+ {ultimately} flushes the standard error stream itself.
+ (makeTempFiles, do_file, main): Boolify.
+ (makeTempFiles, do_file): Reorder null pointer equality
+ comparisons to avoid inadvertent lvalue assignment.
+ (scanArguments, main): Use `EXIT_SUCCESS` and `EXIT_FAILURE`
+ constants from C library instead of integer literals for exit
+ status.
+ (do_file): Demote return type from `int` to `bool`. Return
+ Boolean literals. Drop conditional with empty consequent.
+ (main): Declare local variables closer to the points of use.
+ Stop trying to be a register allocator: stop reusing loop index
+ variable `i` as integer storage for another (albeit related)
+ purpose; introduce `operand_index` instead. Clarify logic by
+ splitting combined initialization and comparison operations, and
+ by testing function return value directly instead of storing it
+ in a pointless temporary. Use `EXIT_SUCCESS` and `EXIT_FAILURE`

+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/ab_works.sh: Add regression test for
+ Savannah #60782.
+
+2022-06-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Trivially refactor.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (token::next): Rename statement label
+ to use documentary terminology.
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (make_composite_node)
+ (make_glyph_node): Make functions static since nothing outside
+ this translation unit calls them.
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (make_glyph_node): Refactor optional
+ argument and its usage. Put it down, flip it, and reverse it.
+ That is, demote its type from `int` to `bool`, invert its sense,
+ and rename it since it affects warning, not error, diagnostics.
+ (character_exists): Update only call site of `make_glyph_node()`
+ that uses non-default argument value.
+
+2022-06-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Adjust diagnostic message text to clarify and better
+ match terminology used in documentation.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (set_escape_char, do_overstrike)
+ (do_bracket, do_name_test, do_width, do_special):
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (suppress_node::tprint): Migrate from
+ "escape" to "escape sequence".
+
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (make_composite_node)
+ (make_glyph_node): Clarify what went wrong.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (token::get_char)
+ (check_missing_character): Migrate from "normal character" to
+ "ordinary character" (see groff_char(7)).
+
+2022-06-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Rename a function for clarity.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (add_to_node_list): Rename this...
+ (add_to_zero_width_node_list): ...to this.
+ (do_zero_width): Update call site.
+ * src/roff/troff/token.h: Update declaration.
+
+2022-06-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (handle_unknown_desc_command):
+ Refactor to skip unnecessary string comparisons. We explicitly
+ return in the final case instead of falling off the end of this
+ void function for consistency if additional cases are added.
+
+2022-06-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (handle_unknown_desc_command):
+ Partially revert commit 64dc40d23a, 19 June. I forgot to save
+ and restore the previous values of the globals
+ `current_filename` and `current_lineno`, and, noticing that this
+ function has 3 return paths, decided that it's cheaper just to
+ go back to `error_with_file_and_line()`.
+
+2022-06-21 Deri James <deri@chuzzlewit.myzen.co.uk>
+
+ [gropdf]: Add more search paths to the Foundry file.
+
+ * font/devpdf/Foundry.in: Use the directory specified with the
+ config flag --with-urw-fonts-dir to populate the default foundry
+ as well as the U foundry. Important to populate the download
+ file with font files to embed the fonts not part of the base
+ pdf fonts or if user wants all fonts embedded.
+
+2022-06-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac (UR, MT): Fix problem with hyphenation
+ occurring before the end of the line when the line length was
+ not the device default (common for man pages at the terminal)
+ and hyperlinks were enabled. The issue is that the new
+ environment we created inherits the default environment's line
+ length (its state at troff initialization, prior to macro
+ package loading and configuration). This latent issue was
+ exposed by post-groff 1.22.4 changes to enable the hyphenation
+ of link text and add the hyperlink feature. Fix it by copying
+ the line length at the time the macro is called, which is
+ necessarily after man(7) sets up the line length, to the new
+ environment.
+
+2022-06-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/grops/psrm.cpp (resource_manager::output_prolog):
+ (resource_manager::supply_resource):
+ (resource_manager::read_download_file): Update diagnostic
+ message language and report underlying problem encountered by
+ system when failing to open files. This will probably be the
+ text for ENOENT in most cases, but should help avoid frustration
+ in those where it isn't.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/grops/psrm.cpp
+ (resource_manager::read_download_file): Align diagnostic message
+ wording with gropdf in the same circumstance.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Throw warning in font category when a font selection
+ escape sequence is used after the output line continuation
+ escape sequence on an input line, because it is ignored.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (environment::set_font): Do it.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Warnings):
+ * src/roff/troff/troff.1.man (Warnings): Document it.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (font_change): Boolify.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl (LoadFont): Revise error message
+ when a font can't be found for embedding. User failure to add
+ an entry for locating the font file seems a more likely scenario
+ than outright corruption of the file.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (font_change): Warn upon selection of a

+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62656>.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Revise `environment::set_font` to return Boolean value
+ indicating success of font selection operation.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (environment::set_font):
+ * src/roff/troff/env.h (environment::set_font): Do it.
+
+ This prepares the way for a fix for Savannah #62656.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp: Use single exit path, freeing
+ memory allocated for strings.
+ (xexit): Add `exit()` wrapper; free allocated memory.
+ (main): Use it in all three exit paths.
+
+2022-06-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp: Refactor to be more meticulous with
+ memory. Add globals `saved_path`, `groff_bin_path`, and
+ `groff_font` to store pointers into the process environment
+ returned by `putenv()`; once used, they need to remain valid for
+ the lifetime of the program.
+ (xstrdup): Add `strdup()` wrapper: dies if `strdup()` fails.
+ (main): Split nested `strsave()` and `xputenv()` (until recently
+ `putenv()`) calls. Free duplicate strings prior to exit.
+
+2022-06-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (main): Rename temporary variable to
+ avoid shadowing one in enclosing scope, which can lead to
+ cut-and-paste errors (ask me how I know).
+
+2022-06-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp: Slightly refactor to indirect
+ `putenv` calls through an error-checking wrapper.
+ (xputenv): Add new function to die if `putenv()` fails.
+ (main): Update call sites to use it.
+
+2022-06-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [groff]: Add information to diagnostic messages.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (main): Report underlying system
+ error if `putenv()` fails.
+ (handle_unknown_desc_command): Set globals `current_filename`
+ and `current_lineno` from `filename` and `lineno` arguments
+ passed to us to we can use the simpler interface of `error()`
+ rather than `error_with_file_and_line()`.
+
+2022-06-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [libgroff]: Update return type of `font::load_desc` function to
+ enable more informative diagnostics from callers.
+
+ * src/include/font.h (font::load_desc): Change return type from
+ `bool` to `const char` pointer.
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load_desc): Return null
+ pointer literal on failed `open()` or validation failures.
+ Return filespec on success.
+
+ * src/libs/libdriver/input.cpp (do_file):
+ * src/preproc/grn/main.cpp (getres):
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (main):
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (main): Compare `font::load_desc()`
+ return value to null pointer literal instead of treating it as a
+ Boolean.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (main): Report full filespec of
+ troublesome "DESC" file when complaining of missing "postpro"
+ directive.
+
+2022-06-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp: Add new Boolean global,
+ `need_postdriver`, and initialize it true.
+ (main): Make `need_postdriver` false if the `-X` or `-Z` options
+ are given. Test it later. This prevents groff from exiting
+ with a fatal error if an output driver is not available, but
+ also not required. Also reorder null pointer equality
+ comparison to avoid inadvertent lvalue assignment.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62640>.
+
+2022-06-16 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (help): Revise usage message for
+ expressiveness and clarity.
+
+2022-06-21 Deri James <deri@chuzzlewit.myzen.co.uk>
+
+ [gropdf]: Correct display of pathnames used.
+
+ * font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries.pl: Convert array to
+ string of pathnames.
+
+2022-06-21 Deri James <deri@chuzzlewit.myzen.co.uk>
+
+ [gropdf]: Fix to gropdf.
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl: If pdfbookmark was called
+ within 5p of top of page (e.g. straight after a .bp when
+ \n[nl] was zero) the click destination would be off by a
+ page.
+
+2022-06-19 Ingo Schwarze <schwarze@openbsd.org>
+
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am: Always build PDF font description
+ files.
+
+ Build font/devpdf/download and the various TR, TB, CR etc.
+ files in the same directory even when they are not required
+ by the build because USE_GROPDF is unset, usually because
+ ghostscript is either unavailable or deliberately disabled
+ by the person running the build. These files need to be
+ built and installed anyway, and can be used on the target
+ system when the required infrastructure is available at run
+ time.
+
+2022-06-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Revise introduction of vertical spacing concept to avoid
+ render inference that the formatter will compute a vertical

+ Kemper for the report.
+
+2022-06-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [docs]: Revise discussion of end-of-sentence detection.
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Filling):
+ * man/roff.7.man (Concepts): Do it. "Spaces" is a now a term
+ with a much more restricted usage. Emphasize the input context,
+ now explicitly identified as plain text files with Unix line
+ endings.
+
+ Fixes (one hopes) <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62593>.
+ Thanks to Ingo Schwarze for the report and Dave Kemper for the
+ discussion.
+
+2022-06-10 Deri James <deri@chuzzlewit.myzen.co.uk>
+
+ [gropdf]: Changes to BuildFoundries.
+
+ * font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries.pl: Collect search paths into
+ an array rather than a colon delimited string, this allows
+ the @PATH_SEPARATOR@ character (':' or ';') to be used to
+ delimit paths yielded by the command 'gs -h' but still use ':'
+ to delimit paths in the Foundry file. This means the same
+ Foundry file can be used on all systems.
+
+ * font/devpdf/Foundry.in: Add more likely paths to find the URW
+ fonts.
+
+2022-06-09 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Weaken dependency on TeX, instead using it (to generate
+ the DVI and PDF forms of our Texinfo manual) only if it is
+ available.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_USE_TEX_CHECK): Check for presence of 'tex'
+ executable in path. Set shell variable `groff_use_tex` to "yes"
+ if present, and "no" otherwise. This check runs only if the
+ 'makeinfo' and 'texi2dvi' version checks have already passed.
+
+ * configure.ac: Run the new check. Set Automake conditional
+ `USE_TEX` only if shell variable `groff_use_tex` is "yes".
+ Report whether "groff.dvi" and "groff.pdf" are (re-)buildable.
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Parameterize names of groff.{dvi,pdf} targets as
+ Make macros `GROFF_DVI` and `GROFF_PDF`. Define them only if
+ `USE_TEX`. Do _not_ update `EXTRA_DIST` macro; leave the
+ literal file names there because we require that distribution
+ archives contain these files.
+ (.texi.dvi, .texi.pdf): Update suffix rules to check `USE_TEX`
+ and fail, complaining of missing 'tex' program, if these targets
+ are attempted without it being true. Only manually specifying
+ the file names as targets to 'make' or attempting to generate a
+ distribution archive without TeX present should cause these
+ errors.
+
+ * INSTALL.REPO: Update dependency information.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62592>. Thanks to Deri
+ James for the report.
+
+2022-06-09 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (.texi.dvi, .texi.pdf, $(DOC_GNU_EPS)): Quote names
+ of programs when aborting because they're missing.
+
+2022-06-09 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PROG_MAKEINFO, GROFF_PROG_TEXI2DVI):
+ Largely revert commit d5013ededc, 21 May: run checks for
+ 'makeinfo' and 'texi2dvi' programs regardless of presence of
+ ".tarball-version" file. Their presence is a necessary (but not
+ sufficient) condition for refresh of formatted forms of our
+ Texinfo manual if the source is modified.
+
+ Begins addressing <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62592>.
+
+2022-06-08 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Rename some groff Autoconf macros to better match
+ Autoconf's own naming conventions.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_MAKEINFO): Rename to...
+ (GROFF_PROG_MAKEINFO): ...this.
+ (GROFF_TEXI2DVI): Rename to...
+ (GROFF_PROG_TEXI2DVI): ...this.
+
+ * configure.ac:
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_TEXI2DVI): Update call sites.
+
+2022-06-07 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (SH, SS, B, I, SM, SB): Set input trap with `it`
+ instead of `itc` for better Unix Version 7 man(7) compatibility.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51468>. Also see
+ discussion at
+ https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2022-06/msg00020.html
+ et sequentia (amid a vigorous bikeshedding of `\&`'s name).
+
+2022-06-07 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [man]: Regression-test use of input traps.
+
+ * tmac/tests/an_use-input-traps-correctly.sh: Do it.
+ * tmac/tmac.am (tmac_TESTS): Run test.
+
+2022-06-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl (LoadDesc): Validate device
+ description file for essential directives and acceptable values
+ as grops(1) does.
+
+2022-06-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff, grohtml, grops, grotty]: Update wording of diagnostic
+ messages to refer to "motion quantum" rather than "resolution"
+ where appropriate.
+
+ * src/devices/grohtml/post-html.cpp
+ (html_printer::html_printer):
+ * src/devices/grops/ps.cpp (ps_printer::ps_printer):
+ * src/devices/grotty/tty.cpp (tty_printer::set_char)
+ (tty_printer::add_char, tty_printer::end_page):
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (line_length, title_length): Do it.
+
+2022-06-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl: Do more "DESC" file validation.
+ (LoadDesc): Bomb out gracefully if any of "unitwidth", "res", or
+ "sizescale" missing from "DESC" file. This prevents Perl
+ warnings about use of uninitialized values, and undoubtedly
+ mangled output.
+
+2022-06-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl: Revise diagnostic message
+ handling.
+ (top level): Add new scalar `progname` to house executable name.
+ (Msg): Output messages in format recommended by GNU Coding
+ Standards manual. Identify who's talking (Savannah #52463).
+ Rename `lev` scalar to `fatal` since it is used only as a
+ Boolean for immediately exiting with failure status. Report
+ diagnostic severity as part of message.
+ (Warn, Die): Add new subroutines through which all diagnostics
+ are now emitted.
+ (top level): Migrate a use of Perl `die` builtin to our `Die`.
+ (top level, ToPoints, LoadDownload, LoadDesc, do_x, GetPoints,
+ LoadSWF, LoadPDF, LoadStream, BuildStream, ParsePDFHash,
+ LoadFont, GetType1, GetChunk, RemapChr, do_N): Migrate `Msg(0,
+ ...)` calls to `Warn` and `Msg(1, ...)` to `Die`. Begin
+ messages in lowercase (GNU Coding Standards). Recast a few
+ messages for clarity.
+
+ Continues the long process of fixing Savannah #52463.
+
+2022-06-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl (Load_Config): Drop unused
+ subroutine and its commented-out call site, which came in that
+ way in July 2011.
+
+2022-06-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl (LoadFont): Warn if a font to be
+ embedded in PDF output cannot be located in the "download" file.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62572>. Thanks to Deri
+ James.
+
+2022-06-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/a4.tmac: Drop file from distribution. It has been
+ superseded by papersize.tmac for nearly 20 years.
+ * tmac/tmac.am (TMACNORMALFILES): Delete reference.
+ * NEWS: Add item.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62569>.
+
+2022-06-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Parameterize X11-related man pages, so they don't get
+ spuriously generated (and not cleaned) when building with X11
+ support disabled.
+
+ * Makefile.am (.man): Fix logic nit: drop unnecessary removal of
+ target before clobbering it with sed.
+ * src/devices/xditview/xditview.am (GXDITVIEW_MAN1): Add new
+ macro, expanding to nothing if `WITHOUT_X11` and to the target
+ name otherwise.
+ (man1_MANS): Append `GXDITVIEW_MAN1` expansion, not a literal.
+ * src/devices/xditview/xditview.am (XTOTROFF_MAN1): Add new
+ macro, expanding to nothing if `WITHOUT_X11` and to the target
+ name otherwise.
+ (man1_MANS): Append `XTOTROFF_MAN1` expansion, not a literal.
+ * doc/doc.am (GROFF_MAN_PAGES1): Append foregoing expansions
+ instead of literals.
+
+2022-06-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Add `AM_CONDITIONAL`: `HAVE_URW_FONTS`, so our
+ Automake files can more easily cope with their absence.
+ * font/devpdf/Foundry.in: Add easily matched phrases to
+ comments, to clearly delimit the URW foundry portion of the file
+ so it can be omitted if those fonts are absent.
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am (font/devpdf/Foundry): Generate file
+ differently depending on `HAVE_URW_FONTS`; keep the existing
+ procedure if true, and delete the URW section from the generated
+ file otherwise, avoiding diagnostic messages from afmtodit(1)
+ and our BuildFoundries script.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62570>.
+
+2022-06-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/devpdf.am (font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries):
+ Generate script using the `PATH_SEPARATOR` Automake macro.
+ * font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries.pl: Add `pathsep` scalar to
+ house the build-time path separator.
+ (LocateFile): Use it.
+ (LoadFoundry, CheckFoundry): Stop using spaces as part of the
+ path separation delimiter. It is not idiomatic.
+
+2022-06-02 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Explicitly identify poppler tools in report.
+
+2022-06-02 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries.pl: Trivially refactor. Drop
+ unused hash `foundry`. Drop scalar `warn` that was set and
+ updated but never tested.
+
+2022-06-02 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devpdf/util/BuildFoundries.pl: Alter script to write to
+ the standard output stream instead of (re)writing a file named
+ "download" in the current working directory. This recovers from
+ a problem I introduced in commit 6e62be835d, 2 May, as an
+ unforeseen side effect of improving build parallelism so that
+ the "download" file wouldn't be read until it was fully
+ populated. As a side benefit, this approach is more Unixy, and
+ less dependent on $PWD.
+ (top level): Stop calling `WriteDownload` with an argument.
+ (LoadFoundry): Close only the file handle of interest when done,
+ not all of them (including `STDOUT`, which we now need).
+ (CheckFoundry): Same--just for cleanliness, since at present
+ running the script in 'check' mode doesn't write to any streams.
+ (WriteDownload): Stop taking an argument and manipulating file
+ handles. Write download file to standard output.
+ (LoadDownload, WriteDownload): Drop `top` scalar, used as a
+ mutex to serialize read and write access to "download" file; it
+ is no longer needed since the "download" file is now only read.
+
+2022-06-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Rename shell variables and Autoconf/Automake macros of
+ Boolean sense to have names more like logical predicates and
+ avoid doofy "DONT" nomenclature.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_MAKE_RM): Rename shell variable
+ `groff_is_rm_defined` to `groff_make_defines_rm` (purely for
+ clarity; it already had a good name).
+ (GROFF_MAKE_RM): Rename this...
+ (GROFF_MAKE_DEFINES_RM): to this, to make parallelism obvious,
+ and enabling...
+ * configure.ac: ...rename of `MAKE_DONT_HAVE_RM` to
+ `MAKE_DEFINES_RM` with sense of test reversed. Also interpolate
+ `GROFF_MAKE_DEFINES_RM` instead of `GROFF_MAKE_RM`. This in
+ turn enables...

+
+2022-06-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+

+
+2022-06-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_X11, GROFF_UCHARDET): Drop redundant
+ messages (which are easily overlooked amid the torrent of
+ "checking" output anyway). Discovery failures of X11 and the
+ uchardet library are already parts of the configuration report
+ at or near the end of output.
+
+2022-06-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PNMTOPS_NOSETPAGE): Partially revert change
+ from 21 May and document why in a comment.
+
+2022-06-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/troffrc: Skip loading of "papersize.tmac" if not in troff
+ mode.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62238>. Thanks to Bjarni
+ Ingi Gislason for the report.
+
+2022-05-31 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Report use of "g" prefix for commands and macro
+ package compatibility wrappers.
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_G): Fix code style nits. Update
+ indentation to match recent practice.
+
+2022-05-31 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Fix code style nits and tweak report. Stop
+ superfluously using braces for shell parameter expansions that
+ don't require them. The shell is not make(1). Say
+ "installation _directory_ prefix" since another kind of prefix
+ can be used by groff (the "g" in front of command and macro
+ package names shared with AT&T troff).
+
+2022-05-31 Dave Kemper <saint.snit@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/groff.texi: Fix content and style nits.
+ - Remove redundancy ("fixed-width... character that can't be
+ adjusted").
+ - Fix incorrect word ("environment value" -> "environment
+ variable").
+ - Add or change the placement of a couple tie{}s to comport
+ with style-guide recommendation.
+ - Grammarify.
+ - Clarify and tighten wording.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62551>.

+2022-05-30 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (font_position): If mounting a font
+ fails and a third argument was given (to the `fp` request),
+ report its value in the diagnostic message. This could reveal a
+ prohibited attempt at directory traversal. See commit
+ a891161bc9, 7 November.
+
+2022-05-30 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/fontfile.cpp (font::open_file): Refactor.
+ Move more logic, including memory allocation, inside conditional
+ that accepts only file names without '/' characters, skipping
+ unnecessary work in the alternative. Annotate use of zero
+ literals as null pointers to ease any future migration to ISO
+ C++11. Add 'const' qualifier to variable that doesn't require
+ modification (and which is used in the LHS of an equality
+ comparison, so that clumsy operator misuse will provoke a
+ compiler warning).
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62532>. Thanks to Bjarni
+ Ingi Gislason for the report.
+
+2022-05-30 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: In configuration report, say that we're
+ reporting compiler options along with the compiler executable.
+ Fix leftover test(1) comparison with garbage, overlooked in
+ commit faa22d89d2, 20 May.
+
+2022-05-30 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (doc/meintro_fr.ps): Build with '-t' option.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62542>. Thanks to Bjarni
+ Ingi Gislason for the report.
+
+2022-05-28 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.1.man (Options) <-l>: Handle case where
+ no default print spooler is configured, and report formatter
+ behavior correctly if it isn't.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62535>. Thanks to Bjarni
+ Ingi Gislason for the report.
+
+2022-05-28 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (.man): Process '@PSPRINT@' substitutions with
+ "makevarescape.sed".
+
+2022-05-26 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PROG_YACC, GROFF_MAKEINFO, GROFF_TEXI2DVI):
+ Fix logic error in detection of build scenario: the presence of
+ a ".git" directory is not an indicator that we're not building
+ from a distribution archive, because we might be building from a
+ snapshot archive (which also lacks it). Instead, perform checks
+ required only by builds from Git checkouts and snapshot archives
+ if the ".tarball-version" file is not present.
+
+2022-05-26 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Ship "HACKING" file.
+
+2022-05-26 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * bootstrap.conf: Add "pkg-config" to `buildreq`. Not having it
+ causes pretty horrible macro expansion problems and diagnostics
+ when 'autoreconf' is run; they're still pretty bad even if you
+ use `AC_REQUIRE` and `m4_pattern_forbid`. So just demand it.
+
+2022-05-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * font/devps/S:
+ * font/devps/symbolmap: Drop excess mapping of `*U` special
+ character. groff maps it to the Adobe Glyph List name
+ 'Upsilon1'. (The AGL 'Upsilon' is a homoglyph of the Latin
+ capital 'Y'.)
+ * PROBLEMS: De-document build-time warning, now resolved.
+
+2022-05-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/utils/afmtodit/afmtodit.tables: Regenerate using Unicode
+ 14.0. No substantive changes.
+
+2022-05-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/utils/afmtodit/make-afmtodit-tables: Refactor. Drop
+ unused variable `prog`. Use value of `CPP` from environment (if
+ defined) and use parameter expansion to apply a default if null
+ or not set. Use for loop to eliminate duplicative if statement.
+ Test input files for readability, not just existence. Use more
+ portable test(1) and shell syntax. Swap usage error and fatal
+ error exit statuses; using "1" for failure and "2" for usage
+ errors is more common in shell scripts I've seen. Update usage
+ message to put non-literal parameter in full caps, and clarify
+ its name. Update comment blocks written to generated files to
+ further clarify data provenance.
+
+2022-05-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PRINT): Refactor. Stop performing checks
+ for spooler options if none is available. Stop redundantly
+ reporting command name used for spooling PostScript files. If
+ an option is required for spooling DVI files, report it alone
+ instead of repeating the command name as well.
+
+2022-05-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Fix insensitivity of groff(1) man page to configured spooler.
+
+ * Makefile.am (.man): Replace `@PSPRINT@` in man page sources
+ with name of configured print spooler command.
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.1.man (Options) <-l>: Use configured
+ print spooler command instead of literal 'lpr'.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_UCHARDET_CHECK): Fix grammar nit in failure
+ message when user demands uchardet support but the library
+ cannot be located.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_CHECK_GROHTML_PROGRAMS): Fix logic error in
+ computation of verb to be used in notice message.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PROG_YACC, GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK)
+ (GROFF_WITH_COMPATIBILITY_WRAPPERS, GROFF_UCHARDET_NOTICE):
+ Improve shell code portability. Per the GNU Autoconf manual,
+ "The -a, -o, '(', and ')' operands are not present in all
+ implementations, and have been marked obsolete by Posix 2008.
+ ...portable uses of test should never have more than four
+ arguments, and scripts should use shell constructs like '&&' and
+ '||' instead."
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.1.man (Installation directories): Don't
+ output a tagged paragraph for the X11 application defaults
+ directory if the build symbol '@APPRESDIR@' is not defined (that
+ is, we didn't build with X11 support).
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_VERSION_CHECK): Fix code style
+ nits. Use lowercase for shell variables we define. Don't quote
+ literal operands to test(1) that don't contain syntactically
+ shell-significant characters. Update indentation to match
+ recent practice.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Don't emit the notice if
+ Ghostscript isn't available, since it was a prerequisite for
+ the `GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK` macro in the first place.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [build]: Add print spooler determination to configuration
+ report.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PRINT): Add shell variable
+ `groff_have_spooler` to house the name of the print spooler
+ {"lp" or "lpr"} or the word "no".
+ * configure.ac: Report determined spooler, or its absence.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/preproc/preconv/tests/do-not-seek-the-unseekable.sh: Skip
+ seekability check of the standard input stream if there is no
+ controlling terminal.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62506>. Thanks to Bjarni
+ Ingi Gislason for the report.
+
+2022-05-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_CHECK_GROHTML_PROGRAMS): Migrate from
+ `AC_FOREACH` to `m4_foreach` to avoid obsolescence warning from
+ GNU Autoconf 2.70 or later.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61059>. Thanks to Bjarni
+ Ingi Gislason for the report.
+
+2022-05-22 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * man/groff.7.man: Rename "pilot" list macros for man(7) from
+ `BL`/`EL` to `LS`/`LE`, per suggestion from Alejandro Colomar.
+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_MAKEINFO, GROFF_TEXI2DVI): Check for
+ makeinfo(1) and texi2dvi(1) programs only if building from Git,
+ not a distribution archive.
+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (doc/meintro_fr.ps): Call groff with `-K utf8`
+ instead of `-k`, in case the "configure" script didn't find
+ uchardet (and preconv(1) thus can't auto-detect an encoding).
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59463>.
+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/preproc/preconv/tests/do-not-seek-the-unseekable.sh: Skip
+ a check if /dev/stdin is not a character special device.
+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PDFTOOLS): Rename this...

+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PNMTOOLS_CAN_BE_QUIET)
+ (GROFF_PNMTOPS_NOSETPAGE): Skip check if prerequisite not met.
+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK): Rename this...

+ (GROFF_URW_FONTS): ...and this...
+ (GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK): ...to this.
+ (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Give lengthy notice message a one-line
+ summary.
+ * configure.ac: Update call sites.
+
+2022-05-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS): Refactor. If our prerequisites
+ are not met (availability of 'awk' and 'gs'), don't even run the
+ check logic or print a "checking" message.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Handle missing programs required to construct files needed at
+ runtime by gropdf more gracefully. Rename and refactor
+ configuration-time logic to be more understandable.
+
+ * configure.ac:
+ * m4/groff.m4: Rename `GROFF_PDFDOC_PROGRAMS` macro to
+ `GROFF_CHECK_GROPDF_PROGRAMS`. Rename shell variable
+ `make_pdfdoc` to `use_gropdf`. Set it explicitly to "no" or
+ "yes" instead of null or not null.
+
+ * configure.ac:
+ * m4/groff.m4:
+ * doc/doc.am: Rename `BUILD_PDFDOC` to `USE_GROPDF`.
+
+ * configure.ac: Call `GROFF_GROPDF_PROGRAM_NOTICE`.
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Bracket definition of `PROCESSEDDOCFILES_PDF`
+ macro and `$(PROCESSEDDOCFILES_PDF)` dependency declaration in
+ Automake `if USE_GROPDF` conditional. This prevents attempts
+ to build PDF documents using groff that are doomed to fail.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4: Refactor gropdf runtime-dependency program check.
+ Split into two macros: one (`GROFF_CHECK_GROPDF_PROGRAMS`)
+ performs the check, the other (`GROFF_GROPDF_PROGRAM_NOTICE`)
+ issues a notice at the end of the configuration process if at
+ least one program was not found. Rename `docnote` shell
+ variable to `gropdf_notice`. Tighten wording of notice. Drop
+ unused `make_install_pdfdoc` and `make_uninstall_pdfdoc` shell
+ variables.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Handle missing programs required at runtime by grohtml more
+ gracefully. Rename and refactor configuration-time logic to be
+ more understandable.
+
+ * configure.ac:
+ * m4/groff.m4: Rename `GROFF_HTML_PROGRAMS` macro to
+ `GROFF_CHECK_GROHTML_PROGRAMS`. Rename shell variable
+ `make_htmldoc` to `use_grohtml`. Set it explicitly to "no" or
+ "yes" instead of null or not null.
+
+ * configure.ac:
+ * m4/groff.m4:
+ * doc/doc.am: Rename `BUILD_HTML` to `USE_GROHTML`.
+
+ * configure.ac: Call `GROFF_GROHTML_PROGRAM_NOTICE`.
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Bracket definition of `PROCESSEDDOCFILES_HTML`
+ macro and `$(PROCESSEDDOCFILES_HTML)` dependency declaration
+ in Automake `if USE_GROHTML` conditional. This prevents an
+ attempt to build an HTML version of the "pic.ms" document that
+ is doomed to fail (noisily).
+
+ * m4/groff.m4: Refactor grohtml runtime-dependency program
+ check. Split into two macros: one
+ {`GROFF_CHECK_GROHTML_PROGRAMS`} performs the check, the other
+ {`GROFF_GROHTML_PROGRAM_NOTICE`} issues a notice at the end of
+ the configuration process if at least one program was not found.
+ Rename `html_docnote` shell variable to `grohtml_notice`.
+ Tighten wording of notice. Drop unused `make_install_htmldoc`
+ and `make_uninstall_htmldoc` shell variables.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_VERSION_NOTICE): Add newline at
+ end of buggy Ghostscript notification, so that the multiple
+ possible lengthy notices after the configuration report have
+ blank lines separating them.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Check for m4 program at configuration time.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PROG_M4): Define new macro to perform the
+ check and error out if the program is missing.
+ * configure.ac: Call the new macro.
+ * tmac/tmac.am (tmac/groff_man.7.man)
+ (tmac/groff_man_style.7.man): Use the new implicitly AC_SUBST-ed
+ variable `M4` to run the program.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_PROG_YACC): Update wording of error
+ message: we search for "yacc", so report it as missing if it is
+ not found (along with "byacc" and "bison").
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Fix shell style nits. Get rid of string
+ {non-}nullity tests and comparisons involving concatenation with
+ garbage (usually "x"). See 13 November entry regarding m4. Use
+ idiomatic shell "brace style" for control structures.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Trivially refactor libgroff allocator configuration.
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_USE_GROFF_ALLOCATOR): Update description of
+ configuration flag to clarify that it's implemented in a
+ library. Rename shell variable to prefix it with "groff_",
+ putting it in an ad hoc name space as with other variables. If
+ feature disabled, set variable to literal "no".
+ * configure.ac: Use renamed variable and interpolate it directly
+ into configuration report, simplifying shell logic.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac: Revise configuration report for intelligibility.
+ Add report of C++ compiler and flags used: we compile much more
+ C++ than C code so this seems appropriate. Report Perl
+ interpreter version so that we can collect build reports and
+ turn the ratchet past Perl 5.6.1 at some point. Fix X11
+ "resources" misnomer (application defaults are what is meant).
+ Rephrase generally.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Ship "ChangeLog.122" in distribution
+ archive. Overlooked in commit c11995df16, 19 February 2021.
+
+2022-05-20 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/grotty/tests/basic_latin_glyphs_map_correctly.sh:
+ Fix portability problem: POSIX says that "od -c" (and "od -t c")
+ are supposed to emit printing characters as defined by the
+ underlying locale, but GNU coreutils od doesn't do this and
+ macOS od does. Set `LC_ALL` to "C" when running it to force
+ 3-digit octal reporting of characters with their eighth bit set.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62357>. Thanks to John
+ Gardner for the report. Also see <https://pubs.opengroup.org/\
+ onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/od.html>.
+
+2022-05-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * INSTALL.extra (In Case of Trouble): Add advice on using the
+ test suite, particularly if it fails.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62478> (one hopes).
+
+2022-05-19 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Input Line Traps): Expand discussion. The
+ `it` and `itc` requests count neither input lines (strictly) nor
+ text lines. Instead, they count input lines that _directly
+ produce formatted output_ (and, in the case of `itc`, are not
+ "interrupted" or continued with the `\c` escape sequence). This
+ is useful--empty requests and requests that don't put nodes on
+ the output don't break things--but does demand some explanation.
+ Clarify and provide example.
+ * man/groff.7.man (Escape sequence short reference) <it>: Sync.
+
+2022-05-18 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (environment::choose_breakpoint): Tweak
+ diagnostic message ("can't" -> "cannot").
+ * doc/groff.texi (Breaking): Update example.
+
+2022-05-17 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Copy Mode):
+ * man/groff.7.man (Copy mode): Fix omission; `\?` is interpreted
+ in copy mode.
+
+2022-05-17 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/s.tmac (PT): Unclutter name space; remove
+ `pg*saved-page-number-format` string when we're done with it.
+
+2022-05-17 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [tbl]: Add unit tests, including one XFAIL for bad behavior.
+

+ * src/preproc/tbl/tests/check-vertical-line-length.sh:

+ * src/preproc/tbl/tbl.am (tbl_TESTS): Run tests.
+ (tbl_XFAIL_TESTS, XFAIL_TESTS): Expect one test failure.
+
+2022-05-16 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/devices/grotty/tty.cpp (tty_printer::add_char): Modify
+ diagnostic message: what gets written "above [the] first line"
+ might not be a character (glyph) per se, but a line (rule) from
+ a drawing command, and in fact the occurrence of these from
+ boxed tables is the most common cause of this message I've seen.
+
+2022-05-16 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [grotty]: Do more input validation.
+
+ * src/devices/grotty/tty.cpp (tty_printer::draw): Throw warning
+ if an unsupported geometric primitive is encountered.
+ (tty_printer::line): Throw warning if a line is diagonal. Die
+ if length of a horizontal or vertical line is not a multiple of
+ the appropriate motion quantum of the device (troff should never
+ emit such nonsense, and currently doesn't appear to).
+
+2022-05-16 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/tbl.1.man (Miscellaneous): Document GNU tbl's
+ use of `#T` and `T.` registers.
+
+2022-05-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (read_color_draw_node): Tweak
+ diagnostic message to better distinguish drawing commands and
+ device control commands.
+
+2022-05-14 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [grohtml]: Mitigate double-free problem exposed by malformed
+ input.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/mtsm.h (struct statem): Place member variable
+ `issue_no` behind `DEBUGGING` preprocessor symbol, omitting it
+ from production and ordinary development builds.
+ * src/roff/troff/mtsm.cpp (no_of_statems): Place global variable
+ behind `DEBUGGING` preprocessor symbol, omitting it from
+ production and ordinary development builds.
+ (statem::statem): Make constructor trivial if `DEBUGGING` not
+ defined in preprocessor; it manipulates only `issue_no` and

+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac (UE, ME): Double backslashes in macro
+ definitions when interpolating `.$` register (just like we tell
+ everyone else to do). This one was interesting to track down.
+ When using just `-man`, the problem never manifested; only with
+ `-mandoc`. The difference is that with the former, the `.$`
+ register is initialized to zero; with the latter, because `TH`
+ is aliased to another macro (then unaliased), `.$` has the
+ argument count to the `TH` macro, not to the macros actually
+ being called. This caused the wrong branch of a conditional to
+ be taken and put an extra space node on the output.

+
+2022-04-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Trivially refactor. Use `RM` macro idiomatically.
+ Automake ensures that it is defined to call an `rm` command with

+ (uninstall_doc_examples, uninstall-pdf): Stop adding superfluous

+ (clean_infodoc uninstall-pdf, uninstall-html): Stop prefixing

+
+2022-04-05 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Trivially refactor shell style in rule commands.
+ The placement of `&&` was inconsistent. Always begin a

+
+2022-04-05 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+

+
+2022-03-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Refactor.
+ (doc/pic.html, doc/webpage.html): Drop indirection of source

+
+2022-04-05 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+
+ * doc/doc.am: Refactor and fix error in builds in remote
+ out-of-source-tree builds exposed by pending commit and `make
+ distcheck`. The images generated for the pic.html and
+ webpage.html files were being built in the wrong directory, and
+ subsequently not found by an install rule.
+ (imagedir): Add comment explaining purpose of macro. It should
+ _not_ be used with any file specifications relative to the
+ source or build trees--it is for installation directories only.
+ (htmldocimagedir, exampleimagedir): Drop macros.
+
+ (doc/pic.html, doc/webpage.html): Replace interpolations of
+ `imagedir` with literal "img", since these files are being
+ generated within the build tree: the directory name is known.
+
+ (mostlyclean_doc, install_doc_htmldoc, install_doc_examples):
+ Replace interpolations of `htmldocimagedir` relative to
+ `doc_builddir` with "img" literals.
+
+ (install_doc_htmldoc, uninstall_doc_htmldoc): Interpolate
+ concatenation of `htmldocdir` and `imagedir` instead of

+ (install_doc_examples, uninstall_doc_examples): Interpolate
+ concatenation of `exampledir` and `imagedir` instead of
+ `exampleimagedir` (relative to `DESTDIR`).
+
+2022-04-01 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Refactor. Relocate "doc/grnexampl.ps" target to
+ group it with other me(7) documents. Put addition of

+ target rule. Relocate same rule so that it precedes the target
+ depending on it (make(1) might not benefit from this, but human
+ readers can).
+
+2022-03-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Refactor.
+ (DOC_GROFF_ONLY): Drop preprocessor options from groff command.
+ This macro is now, simply, a way to run the in-tree groff: no
+ assumptions about preprocessors, macro packages, or output
+ device are made.
+ (doc/pic.html, doc/webpage.html): Add only necessary
+ preprocessor options after expansion of `DOC_GROFF_ONLY`.
+
+2022-03-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Refactor. Add explicit dependencies of compiled
+ man page documents on preprocessors needed to generate them. In
+ their target rules, explicitly use groff's preprocessor options,
+ freeing us up to simplify the `DOC_GROFF_ONLY` macro.
+
+2022-03-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Rationalize dependencies. Drop dependency of
+ `PROCESSEDEXAMPLEFILES` and `PROCESSEDDOCFILES` on expansion of
+ `hdtbltmac_DATA`, because nothing in this directory uses the
+ hdtbl package. Move dep of same expansions on "gnu.eps" to
+ "doc/webpage.html", which actually uses it. Put the numerous
+ dependencies of "doc/pic.html" and "doc/webpage.html" in a
+ parallel ordering so that they are easier for humans to
+ evaluate. These targets' dependencies on `bin_PROGRAMS` and
+ `prefixexecbin_PROGRAMS` are overkill and should be reviewed at
+ a later date.
+
+2022-04-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Refactor use of target and suffix rules.
+ (doc/meintro.me, doc/meintro_fr.me, doc/meref.me): Add target
+ rules, with lengthy, exasperated comment about lack of feature
+ parity in various make(1) implementations.
+ (doc/meintro_fr.ps): Add target rule, as this seems to be the
+ only way to keep GNU Make from ignoring a '_fr.me._fr.ps' suffix
+ rule in favor of '.me.ps', which doesn't call preconv (and
+ doesn't need to--and moreover we don't want to build English
+ me(7) documents with the `-mfr` option). Depend on `preconv`.
+ (doc/webpage.ps): Convert from suffix rule to target rule.
+ (doc/ms.ps, doc/pic.ps, doc/webpage.ps): Add target rules and
+ dependencies.
+ (.ms.ps): Add commented-out suffix rule (since nothing uses it,
+ but might in the future).
+ (doc/meintro_fr.ps, .me.ps, doc/pic.ps, doc/webpage.ps): Migrate
+ expansions of `DOC_GROFF` to `DOC_GROFF_ONLY` to prepare for a
+ forthcoming simplification.
+
+2022-04-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+
+ * src/devices/xditview/xditview.am (install_xditview)
+ [!WITHOUT_X11]: Stop backing up existing "GXditview" and

+ symmetric restoration of them in the uninstall target, and it
+ seems like unjustifiable complexity to add such. These are
+ groff-specific file names, installed (by default) to /usr,

+
+ * doc/doc.am: Put "gnu.eps" in a Make macro, `DOC_GNU_EPS`.
+ ($(PROCESSEDEXAMPLEFILES) $(PROCESSEDDOCFILES),

+ (doc/webpage.ps): Add target rule. Include `-mwww` argument.
+ (doc/webpage.ps, doc/webpage.html): Pass `-I` option to

+ location of "gnu.eps" file. Search the build and source trees'
+ "doc" directories because the file can be generated as part of

+
+ * tmac/tests/pdfpic_does-not-choke-on-bad-pdfinfo-output.sh:

+
+ * doc/doc.am: Add new macro `PROCESSEDDOCFILES_PS` to isolate

+ `PROCESSEDEXAMPLEFILES` to the former. (At present, the
+ dependency might seem superfluous, since those files are in the
+ source distribution, but it's conceivable that in the near
+ future, they will be produced at build time from Adobe font
+ metric files; see font/devps/generate/Makefile). The "pic.html"
+ and "webpage.html" targets already had such a dependency because
+ of the way grohtml (pre-grohtml) works.

+
+ * font/devps/generate/Makefile: Add `outdir` variable to store
+ destination directory of font description files, and update all
+ targets that write artifacts to use this directory. This makes
+ the targets "phony", which I don't regard as a problem since the
+ generated artifacts are kept under source control, and this
+ isn't really a user-facing script (even though it gets
+ installed). I think there is a good chance that this will
+ become a shell script, because to avoid regressions we need to
+ generate the font descriptions using both the 229-glyph and
+ 314-glyph versions of the Adobe fonts' AFM files (so that we get
+ wider glyph coverage _and_ more kerning pair data) and we need
+ to add kerning information for the ellipsis (Savannah #58897).
+ (symbolsl.afm): Revise generation process to be sensitive to
+ failure.
+
+2022-03-09 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+

+ `SS`, the slanted symbol font, and ZDR, reversed Zapf Dingbats).
+ Like the Type 1 font descriptions themselves, this file is
+ updated only in "maintainer mode", not as part of the build.
+ Moreover, these fonts are not part of the PostScript level 2
+ base 35 fonts so their AFM files are unlikely to be readily

+
+ Refactor X11 font description generation. Integrate it with our
+ "new" (post-2014) Automake-based build system.
+
+ * src/utils/xtotroff/Makefile.in: Delete relic of old build
+ system. Also, it had a bug: it generated X11 output device
+ 'DESC' files with a "unitwidth 10" directive even for the "-12"
+ devices, which is not correct (the in-tree DESC files we've been
+ shipping for years were nevertheless correct, apparently fixed
+ by hand by James Clark in groff 1.07 [March 1993]).
+
+ * src/utils/xtotroff/xtotroff.am: Define `xtotroff` variable for
+ use by X11 font description generation targets below.
+
+ * font/devX100-12/devX100-12.am:
+ * font/devX100/devX100.am:
+ * font/devX75-12/devX75-12.am:
+ * font/devX75/devX75.am: Add new (phony) targets, variously
+ named "devX{100,100_12,75,75_12}", to generate the corresponding
+ output device's DESC file and run xtotroff(1) to generate its
+ font description files. Be sure to set the correct "unitwidth"
+ for the "-12" devices. Add new dependency-only rule
+ "maintainer-font-descriptions" depending on these new targets
+ for convenience (and future expansion to devps and devlj4).
+
+ * FOR-RELEASE: Document existence of
+ "maintainer-font-descriptions" Make target and when to run it.
+
+ Running this target with the aforementioned bug fix, overwriting
+ the in-tree DESC and font description files using data gathered
+ from a running X server, results in no changes whatsoever. Say
+ what you will about X11 core font technology--it's stable.

+
+ Rename and ship "FontMap-X11". xtotroff(1) is not very useful
+ without a font name mapping file to read. To date it has been
+ available only in the source distribution. Remedy that. The
+ file is placed directly in the groff font directory alongside
+ the device directories because it applies to four different
+ devices, and four copies of this data are not required.
+

+ (MapFont): Introduce new variable `file_name`, into which we
+ assemble a destination file name from `destdir` (if not null)
+ and the troff font name. Handle memory allocation failure (by
+ carefully dying). Free allocated storage on success and failure
+ paths out of the function.
+ (usage): Document new `-d` option.

+ (FontNamesAmbiguous, MapFont): Refer to font name as "invalid",

+ [man,mdoc,me]: Revise hyphenation localization.
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (an*reset-hyphenation-mode): New macro sets the
+ hyphenation mode appropriate to the locale depending on the
+ values of `cR` (continuous rendering mode) and `HY` (hyphenation
+ enablement); the latter is now interpreted as a Boolean. Define
+ new register `an*hyphenation-mode` reflecting these conditions.
+ (TH): Call the foregoing instead of invoking `hy` request.
+ (MR): Restore hyphenation mode to `an*hyphenation-mode`.
+ (initialization): Simplify; if not defined, set `HY` to 1.
+
+ * tmac/e.tmac (ld): Set the hyphenation mode here instead of in

+ localization file.
+

+

+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac: Add new `mC` string to store the font name
+ to be used for example regions. In AT&T device-independent
+ troff, "CW" was a common name, so use that. It is however a
+ terrible fit for groff's font family and style-combination
+ functionality, and is inflexible in the face of font selection
+ requests and escape sequences within the example region. (One
+ either needs to know the names of the fonts available on the
+ output device, or suffer the indignity of mixed constant-width
+ and proportional typefaces.) Relatedly, drop groff-specific
+ font remapping requests.
+ (EX, EE): Ignore definition if GNU troff is the formatter. Drop
+ font family manipulation. Drop specialized logic for groff's
+ DVI output device.
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (initialization): Resurrect font remapping
+ requests here.
+ (EX, EE): Add new definitions, saving and restoring more state
+ and remapping DVI output device fonts to reflect the absence of
+ CWB and CWBI faces.
+
+2022-02-16 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac: Slightly refactor. Stop using groff's `HY`

+ Introduce new register `mJ` to store "1" (if not groff) and the

+ (PDFPIC): When testing PDF file extension, include the "."; a

+ explicitly compare `systat` register as equal or not equal to

+
+ * tmac/pdfpic.tmac (PDFPIC): Refactor PDFPIC_NOSPACE handling.
+ Stop shelling out to create, and then sourcing, a temporary file
+ just to obtain the value of an environment variable. groff

+ safe!). Check that the value of $GROFF_PDFPIC_NOSPACE is a
+ valid numeric expression before assigning it to a register.
+ Trivially, use '=' instead of '==' as an equality operator.

+
+ * tmac/e.tmac (u): On nroff devices, bracket the first argument
+ with \(ul (underline rule) special character escape sequences.
+ {In plain language, '.u "like this"' renders "_like this_".}
+
+ I regard this as a cosmetic and semantic improvement; since the
+ quarter-em vertical motions used in troff mode were ignored in
+ nroff mode, the effect was not underlining but a sort of
+ strike-through, visible only at spaces in the argument. The use
+ of this macro was thus invisible in nroff output if no spaces
+ were present in the argument. This is probably the best we can
+ do without a fatter interface to terminal device capabilities.

+ [man]: Refactor PDF bookmark support.
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (an*bookmark): New internal macro calls
+ `pdfbookmark` (only if the output device is 'pdf').
+ (initialization): Migrate macro appendments to appropriate
+ definitions. Two cases...
+ (SH, SS): ...were straightforward.
+ (initialization): Another (for the man page title) was poorly
+ placed when appended to the `TH` macro, skipping over the page
+ header. Move it instead...
+ (PT): ...here. But to keep this bookmark from being generated
+ on every page of a document, we need a new variable
+ `an*was-TH-bookmark-emitted` which is tested here and assigned
+ once one bookmark corresponding to a `TH` call has been written.
+ (TH): Initialize `an*was-TH-bookmark-emitted` to zero.
+ (SS): Write the bookmark _before_ the subsection heading text.
+ (initialization): Drop short-lived `BM` register. It seems
+ harmless to unconditionally include bookmarks in PDF output. A
+ PDF tool can strip them out if they're not desired, and viewers
+ seem capable of minimizing or reducing the navigation pane (if
+ they even offer one in the first place).
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (initialization): Rename new `BN` register to

+
+ Implement PDF bookmark support for man pages. Limitation: A
+ {sub}section can only be bookmarked if it is specified in the
+ arguments to the `SH` or `SS` requests, not on the next line in
+ an input trap. Thanks to Deri James for providing the
+ fundamentals (blame me for any weird bits).
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (an-prepare-page-title): Define a new string,
+ `an*page-ref-string`, which is the man page's own reference
+ {such as "groff(1)"} without any abbreviation, ellipsis, or font
+ selection or italic correction escape sequences.
+ (SS): Define a new string, `an*subsection-heading`, storing the
+ macro arguments (if any). These could contain font selection
+ escape sequences, for instance, a fact that becomes important
+ later.
+ (initialization):
+ - Recognize `BM` register to enable PDF bookmarks (only on the
+ 'pdf' output device); defaults on. Recognize `BN` register to
+ set a base level/depth for the bookmarks; this is to ease
+ embedding of man pages in other PDF documents that already use
+ bookmarks. The default is 0. The registers are not yet
+ documented.
+ - If the output device is 'pdf' and bookmarks are enabled, set
+ `PDFOUTLINE.FOLDLEVEL` and `PDFHREF.VIEW.LEADING` registers
+ {recognized by 'pdf.tmac'}. Append to `TH`, `SH`, `SS` to get
+ the `an*page-ref-string`, `an-section-heading`, and
+ `an*subsection-heading` bookmarks in the document at the
+ applicable levels.
+
+ * tmac/mdoc/doc-common: Add straw-man implementation--it doesn't
+ support the `BM` and `BN` configuration parameters yet. (This
+ is enough to get bookmarks for the groff_mdoc(7) page to
+ correctly appear in the new 'groff-man-pages.pdf' document.)
+ (Dt, Sh, Ss): If the output device is 'pdf', place bookmarks in
+ the document at levels 1, 2, and 3.

+
+ [man pages]: Fix options used to generate compilations.
+
+ * doc/doc.am (doc/groff-man-pages.pdf): Drop `-rU0` option (it's
+ unnecessary since we don't yet have PDF hyperlink support in
+ this document). Add `-rC1` option to enable continuous page
+ numbering.
+ (doc/groff-man-pages.utf8.txt): Drop `-rC1 -rU1`. Continuous
+ page numbering is superfluous since page numbers are not shown
+ in continuous rendering mode. Stop turning on OSC 8 defaults;
+ we don't know if the document will be viewed with a supporting
+ pager+terminal combination, and further we don't yet have a
+ mechanism for making `MR` man page cross references internal to
+ the document when they indicate groff man pages.
+
+2022-01-24 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [man pages]: Ship compilations in UTF-8 text and PDF.
+
+ Localization support and the resolution of Savannah #61266 have
+ made it practical to batch-render all of groff's man pages as a
+ single giant document. Provide PDF and UTF-8 text (with ECMA-48
+ escape sequences, but not the italic attribute or OSC 8
+ sequences).
+
+ Reasons for this addition include: {1} it is now possible,
+ whereas I don't believe it was in any previous groff release;
+ {2} many people still don't realize how much more pleasant
+ reading typeset man pages can be (while a subjective assessment,
+ I'm not alone[1]); {3} providing these forms permits full-text
+ searching of groff's entire man page corpus via the PDF viewer
+ or a pager like "less -R", the latter without sacrificing the
+ style variations of the text that aid the reader to comprehend
+ the material; {4} sentimentally, it honors the 50th anniversary
+ of the first Unix manual (dated 3 November 1971)
+ <https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/1stEdman.html>.
+
+ * doc/doc.am (PROCESSEDDOCFILES): Add
+ 'doc/groff-man-pages.{pdf,utf8.txt}'.
+ (GROFF_MAN_PAGES{1,2,3}): Add new macro storing names of all man
+ pages generated in the build tree. Motivate the reason for 3
+ variables in a comment (it's due to groff locale switching).
+ (GROFF_MAN_PAGES_ALL): Add convenience macro for use in
+ dependency lists required by...
+ ('doc/groff-man-pages.{pdf,utf8.txt}'): ...these targets.
+ Generate pages with the lint dial turned all the way up.

+ [man]: Commit c64fd60dff was not quite cooked. The localized
+ strings (in English) for the manual section titles need to be
+ set at every document load (i.e., when `TH` is called), but only
+ if the groff locale is "english". When switching locales, these
+ strings were getting "stuck" in their non-English translations
+ even when returning to an English page.

+
+ * tmac/pdfpic.tmac (@abort): Rename to `pdfpic@error`. This is

+ the former name (or worse, we break it if we're loaded later).
+ (pdfpic@error): Stop aborting; simply report an error. It's up
+ to the user how serious `PDFPIC` macro problems are. As noted
+ in a comment, the user can easily `am pdfpic@error` to tack an
+ `ab` request onto the end of its definition. Always report
+ input file name and line number. Replace "[PDFPIC]" prefix with
+ the name of the macro file complaining, to make it easier for
+ groff non-experts to find.
+ (PDFPIC): Return upon errors. Recast diagnostic messages. Stop
+ implying that we perform any sort of probing test of file type
+ {there's no telling what pdfinfo(1) will say}. Apply new
+ 'stringdown' request so that we accept '.pdf' file name
+ extension in any lettercase. Test file argument for existence
+ before proceeding (acknowledge TOCTTOU exposure). Skip file if
+ pipeline returned a non-zero exit status or the registers into
+ which we extract the height and width are undefined (indicating
+ failure of a temporary file to be created or read). Reject
+ files with non-positive image width or height reported by
+ pdfinfo. Validate `width` and `height` arguments, if given,
+ rejecting non-positive values.

+ (table::init_output, table::compute_expand_list,
+ table::compute_separation_factor):
+ - Move `entry_list->set_location()` calls to more auspicious
+ locations.
+ - Replace "around line X" language in diagnostic messages with a
+ more idiomatic, and less embarrassing, simple report of an

+ (table::init_output):
+ - Add `entry_list->set_location()` call right before emitting
+ diagnostic about a table row not fitting on a page.
+ - Turn off eqn(1) delimiters when emitting diagnostic about a
+ boxed table not fitting on a page (necessitating `.TS H`
+ support), using new NOP_NAME-based end macro to achieve this
+ inside a macro definition.
+ (table::compute_expand_list): Suppress issue of too-wide table
+ diagnostic when the `EXPAND` table flag is set (corresponding to
+ the `expand` region option), because other code already emits
+ diagnostics in this case.

+ columns. Iterate through columns again (the function was
+ already doing so twice), once to potentially produce the

+
+ [font,tmac]: Simplify Unicode character mapping process.
+
+ * tmac/unicode.tmac: Drop. It was originally added in 2005 to
+ suppress horizontal spacing of glyphs in the range U+0483..9.
+ Its purpose has wandered over the years; most recently to map
+ the Basic Latin ("ASCII") hyphen-minus, apostrophe, and grave
+ accent to special characters (and thus ultimately to the General
+ Punctuation block). But this is unnecessary since the font
+ descriptions for devices with the `unicode` property can provide
+ this information, and anyone who wants to alter the mappings can
+ change either font description files, output device macro files,
+ or troffrc; or add `char` requests to their macro packages or
+ documents (in decreasing magnitude of ambition).
+
+ * tmac/html.tmac:
+ * tmac/tty.tmac: Stop sourcing unicode.tmac.
+
+ * tmac/tmac.am (TMACNORMALFILES): Stop shipping it.
+
+ * font/devutf8/NOTES: Drop remarks about mapping of \[a~],
+ \[a^], and Basic Latin circumflex accent and tilde. Not only do
+ I disagree with the reasoning (whether these glyphs are "too
+ small" depends on the font used by the terminal emulator, over
+ which we have no control), but this mapping happens in a
+ completely different part of the source tree,
+ src/libs/libgroff/glyphuni.cpp.
+
+ * font/devhtml/R.proto:
+ * font/devutf8/R.proto: Add mappings for the five Basic Latin
+ characters that map surprisingly (see groff_char(7)) and are not
+ syntactically significant to troff. Three of these are ported
+ from unicode.tmac.
+ (html): Don't migrate the hyphen-minus--yet.
+
+2022-01-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/tty-char.tmac: Drop redundant logic. We don't need to
+ source the `cp1047` or `latin1` files here; `troffrc` will
+ already have loaded `tty` for us, which loads whichever applies.
+
+2022-01-14 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am: Separate concerns better; stop re-generating plain
+ text and HTML documents when the 'doc' target is updated; these
+ are already handled by the 'build_infodoc' target.
+ (build_infodoc): Use existing phony targets for plain text and
+ HTML output files instead of repeating filename literals.
+ (doc_all): Remove those same two phony targets from this one's
+ dependencies.
+
+2022-01-14 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp: Rename `eoi_macro_name` to
+ `end_of_input_macro_name`. It's long, yes, but better parallels
+ `blank_line_macro_name` and `leading_spaces_macro_name`. It is
+ not used in lengthy expressions and furthermore clarifies the
+ meaning of the nearby function name `eoi_macro` in one use.
+

+
+ [docs]: Be more careful with control characters when they are
+ word-initial in filled text lines. The idea is to prevent
+ baffling surprises if a sentence is recast in a text editor, and
+ a word beginning with a dot or neutral apostrophe is reflowed
+ onto the beginning of the next input line--suddenly it is parsed
+ as a control character. Based on a patch by Bjarni Ingi
+ Gislason.

+ [tmac]: Manage hyphenation mode more carefully in localization
+ packages.
+
+ * tmac/{cs,de,it,sv}.tmac: Localize the man(7) package's HY
+ register.
+
+ * tmac/{cs,de,fr,it,sv}.tmac: When localizing the ms(7) package,
+ use mode "2" instead of "3": the 'hy' request complains of
+ contradictory hyphenation modes if "3" is used (the semantics of
+ the hyphenation mode are complex and non-orthogonal; see
+ groff(7) or our Texinfo manual).
+
+ * tmac/{cs,de,en,fr,it,sv}.tmac: If the one language-independent
+ hyphenation bit (don't hyphenate just prior to a page location
+ trap) is set, preserve it; this way a system's troffrc or a
+ macro package can set it and it will not get turned off by the
+ localization package, which for best results should be loaded
+ after any full-service package (and any auxiliary package
+ requiring localized strings, though none are yet distributed
+ with groff).
+
+2022-01-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+ [indxbib]: Document --version in usage message.
+
+ * src/utils/indxbib/indxbib.cpp (usage): Document --version
+ option. Use more informative metasyntactic variable names.
+ Organize usage message consistently with our others, and stop
+ wrapping the output lines: we know neither the width of the
+ terminal nor the length of the `program_name` string we're
+ interpolating. See commit b4de44f0, 19 July 2021.

+
+ [libbib]: Refactor index header checking.
+
+ * src/libs/libbib/index.cpp: Move more header validity checks...
+ (index_search_item::load): ...from here...
+
+ (index_search_item::check_header): ...to here. Test all size
+ values in header for negative values (never valid) before
+ proceeding. (These data could be changed to unsigned integer
+ types in the file format, but that would require bumping the
+ file version. That in turn would make indexes generated with
+ groff 1.23 unusable on systems running older groffs and, perhaps
+ worse, would make groff 1.23 reject index files produced by
+ older groffs. On the other hand, the regeneration of index
+ files should be, for those who use them, a common activity, and
+ as long as the original database files are kept intact, it seems
+ likely that most people, given modern machines, won't even
+ notice a slowdown in document generation when refer(1) and
+ friends fail to open the indices and fall back to full-text
+ searches of the originals. So we could still consider revising
+ the file format before the groff 1.23 release.)
+
+ * src/libs/libbib/index.cpp (index_search_item::load):
+ Explicitly perform widening conversion from signed `off_t` value
+ {from a stat(2) buffer} to an unsigned integer; quietens
+ compiler warning about comparison between integers differing in
+ signedness.
+
+2022-01-05 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * configure.ac (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Expect stdbool.h, since we
+ now use it in src/include/lib.h.
+
+2022-01-05 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [libbib, libgroff, indxbib]: Slightly refactor.
+
+ Also, it's silly to test even numbers > 2 for primality. Stop.
+
+ * src/include/lib.h: Include `stdbool.h` since this header file
+ is used for both C and C++ code.
+
+ * src/include/lib.h (is_prime):
+ * src/libs/libgroff/prime.cpp (is_prime): Boolify. Return
+ Boolean instead of integer literals and demote return type to
+ `bool`. Include `assert.h` and add assertion to reject
+ mathematically offensive input.
+
+ * src/libs/libbib/index.cpp
+ (index_search_item::read_common_words_file): Test only odd
+ numbers for primality.
+ * src/utils/indxbib/indxbib.cpp (main): Same. Since the number
+ comes from user input, make it (a potential hash table size) odd
+ first.
+
+2022-01-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [man]: Internationalize and localize.
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (TH): Indirect predefined manual section titles
+ through new strings `an*section[1-9]` so that they can be
+ localized.
+ (initialization): Give these strings English defaults.
+ (TH): Move `ss` request from here...
+
+ * tmac/en.tmac: ...to here. It's not the man(7) package's
+ business what the inter-word and inter-sentence spacing values
+ are. Also, having the correct[disputed] inter-sentence spacing
+ value for English in its localization file restores it for the
+ benefit of multi-lingual documents (mainly roff applications
+ other than man(7)).
+
+ * tmac/{cs,de,fr,it,sv}.tmac: Supply translations for the manual
+ section titles; these were done by a monoglot American employing
+ Google Translate, so those scandalized or running into howlingly
+ wrong locutions are warmly invited to submit corrections.
+
+ * tmac/trans.tmac: Load localized strings.

+
+2022-01-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.pl: Handle auxiliary macro package
+ arguments correctly.
+ (process_arguments): Don't append the argument to the '-m'
+ option to the command line; requested macro packages have
+ dedicated logic.
+ (construct_command): When iterating through requested package
+ list, assume each element is an auxiliary package unless it
+ matches an element in the list of main packages. If the
+ assumption holds, append the package name to a new list,
+ `auxiliary_package_argument` (prefixed with '-m'). Push this
+ list onto the command line after any main package.
+
+ Also rename `$selected_main_package` to `$main_package` for
+ brevity, and drop unused global lists `m` and
+ `supplemental_package`.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61758>.
+
+2022-01-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+
+2022-01-03 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [me]: Drop unnecessary code. Apart from being superfluous, it
+ prevented a user-defined value of the `sx` register from being
+ applied to the first footnote marker interpolated, a subtlety
+ that escaped my notice because the first footnotes in our
+ "meref" and "meintro" documents are not numeric, but symbolic,
+ and their markers occurred on lines with vertical space above
+ and below. (The bug was further masked by an otherwise
+ redundant redefinition of the `*` string inside the `)f` macro.)
+
+ * tmac/e.tmac ()f, +c): Stop redefining footnote marker string
+ `*` after updating the automatic footnote number; its
+ interpolation is already backslash-protected.
+ ()d, pd): Stop redefining delayed text marker string `#` for an
+ analogous reason.
+ (initialization): Drop unneeded `_*` and `_#` strings.
+
+ Thanks to Robert Goulding for his feedback and patience. See

+
+ [me]: Revise `n1` and `n2` interface and behavior.
+
+ There were several bugs in the previous implementation.
+
+ * tmac/e.tmac (po): Issue diagnostic if an attempt is made to
+ set the page offset to a negative value.
+
+ (n1): Accept new optional "C" argument to behave more (but not
+ exactly) like roff(1), as the formerly-recognized "c" argument
+ to `n2` did. If present, the line length is reduced by the same
+ amount (in new interface register `no`) as the line number field
+ to preserve the overall line length. Save the previous line
+ length in internal register `_l` and set a flag, stored in `?N`,
+ indicating this reduction. Otherwise, the macro expects to be
+ able to reduce the page offset to accommodate the line number.
+ If it cannot (for example, with the zero page offset default
+ used by nroff output devices), see above re: the `po` macro.
+
+ (n2): Cache the last line number that may have been output,
+ instead of the current one, so that we can operate on it
+ consistently with user expectations. Do this earlier, and
+ rename this macro-local variable from `_ln` to `_n` so that we
+ don't need groff's `do` request to operate on it. Drop
+ recognition of "c" as an optional second argument. If turning
+ off line numbering: if the line length was shortened (`?N`)
+ restore the saved value and delete `_l` register; otherwise,
+ reverse the change to the page offset. Delete `_n` register.
+
+ (initialization): Assign `\w'0000'u` to `no` register; this was
+ previously hard-coded in `n1` and `n2`. Initialize `?N` with 0.
+
+ * doc/meref.me.in (roff Support): Update to reflect interface
+ changes and describe behavior more accurately.
+
+ * doc/meref.me.in (Summary):
+ * tmac/groff_me.7.in (Registers): Document new `no` register and

+
+ * tmac/e.tmac: Ease localization and customization by exposing

+ initialization since the latter don't involve natural languages.
+ ($c): Interpolate these strings in chapter and appendix headings
+ and in calls to `$C` hook macro. Set "Chapter" and "Appendix"
+ in mixed case instead of full capitals, and set one
+ adjustable nonbreaking word space `\~` between them and the
+ chapter number instead of two unadjustable nonbreaking spaces.

+
+ [tbl]: Slightly refactor table format column modifier `p` and
+ `v` validation.
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/main.cpp (process_format): Make code terser by
+ introducing references to `list->point_size` and
+ `list->vertical_spacing`. Doing this requires a new scope
+ {because a switch case isn't one} so add it, without updating

+
+2021-11-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [tbl]: Improve diagnostic messages.
+
+ Revise diagnostic messages generally to use terminology
+ consistent with the recent rewrite of tbl(1), identify a
+ contextual token when possible, and communicate more helpfully.
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/main.cpp (process_options): Tell the user
+ which region option is missing a closing parenthesis or cannot
+ accept an empty argument. Refer to region options as such, not
+ simply "options" (so they can't be confused with command-line
+ options). Say that input is "invalid" instead of "bad".
+ (process_format): Say "table format specification" instead of
+ just "format". Say "column classifier" instead of "format".
+ When a column modifier is missing an argument or a closing
+ parenthesis, identify it and refer to it as a "column modifier"
+ instead of omitting context. Inform user that arguments to `p`
+ and `v` column modifiers must be "(optionally signed) integer"s,
+ not "numbers", lower these diagnostics' levels from error to
+ warning, and indicate that the modifier is ignored. Clarify
+ diagnostic when extra characters trail `.` at the end of a table
+ format line.
+ (process_data): Say "table entry" instead of "data entry" when
+ discarding an excess one.
+ (process_table): Say we're giving up on "this table region", not
+ this "table", particularly since any table continuations (.T&)
+ are ignored.

+ [tbl]: If "nowarn", suppress table row warning.
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp (table::init_output): Bracket the

+ overruns a page location trap (usually, is too long to
+ vertically fit on the page) in a test for whether the "nowarn"
+ region option was given, so that this warning is suppressed as

+ * src/preproc/tbl/tbl.1.man (Region options): Document new
+ "nowarn" behavior.
+
+ {"nokeep" also suppresses this warning, for a different reason;
+ no diversion is created to hold the table row, so its vertical

+
+2021-11-13 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/preproc/tbl/table.cpp (table::do_vspan): Fix code style

+
+ [m4]: Clean up test(1) usage.
+
+ Get rid of string (non-)nullity tests and comparisons involving
+ concatenation with garbage (usually "x"). Even the GNU Autoconf

+ must be either a bodge cooked up by shell programmers who
+ couldn't remember to quote variable expansions, or a workaround
+ for shells of such poor quality that they defied the odds and
+ decayed out of usage or got fixed.
+
+ Instead, use double quotes (only where necessary). Test for
+ non-empty strings with "test -n" and empty strings with "test
+ -z". Stop quoting literal comparands that obviously have no

+
+2021-11-12 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_TEXI2DVI): Add dependency on
+ `GROFF_MAKEINFO` macro. Rewrite to also test `MAKEINFO`
+ variable, which is empty if the `makeinfo` command is not
+ installed or too old. Consequently ignore `texi2dvi` if is too
+ old without having to do a version check (since it and
+ `makeinfo` are distributed together, both being part of GNU
+ Texinfo).
+
+ * doc/doc.am (.texi.dvi, .texi.pdf): Update error message to

+
+2021-11-12 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_MAKEINFO): Stop throwing a warning if the

+ up to date. This is not a configure-time problem; the user will
+ be notified when they run 'make' if they modify doc/groff.texi,
+ or if they run 'make doc' (which has required a TeX installation
+ for years). Empty the `MAKEINFO` variable immediately if a

+
+2021-11-12 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_HTML_PROGRAMS): Clarify message; it is only

+
+2021-11-11 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+ * Makefile.am (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Initialize.
+ (MOSTLYCLEANADD): Drop unused variable.
+ * configure.ac: Drop `AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_INFODOC]...`.
+ * doc/doc.am (EXTRA_DIST): Rearrange shipment of our Texinfo
+ manual source files to precede all of the generated forms, for
+ clarity. Drop all `BUILD_INFODOC` conditionals. Make
+ `build_infodoc` phony target depend on plain text, GNU Info, and
+ HTML forms of Texinfo manual unconditionally. Also drop unused
+ variables `groffinfodir`, `groffpdfdir`, and `texi2dvi_missing`.
+ (EXTRA_DIST, MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add Info form of manual.
+ Drop glob pattern attempting to match the segments that
+ `makeinfo` breaks it into. It isn't necessary for
+ MAINTAINERCLEANFILES.
+ (EXTRA_DIST, MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add text form of manual.
+ (EXTRA_DIST, MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Add HTML form of manual.
+ (dist-hook): Depend on new (phony) target `dist-info-bits`.
+ (dist-info-bits): Look for the info document in the build
+ directory, then the source directory. (It could be in either
+ place depending on whether the build from a Git working tree is
+ being done in or out of a separate build directory.) When
+ found, copy the segments to the assembly area for the
+ distribution archive.
+ (install_infodoc): Refactor. Remove any groff info files from
+ the destination info directory using a shell glob directly
+ instead of a partly redundant ls(1) command substitution.
+ Similarly, use a shell glob to cp(1) the info files (including
+ any matched segments) to the destination info directory before
+ running `install-info`. (In this process I learned that
+ `install-info` doesn't "install" anything; instead, it
+ {de-}registers info files with their top-level catalog.)
+
+2021-11-11 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * doc/doc.am (.texi.txt, .texi.html): Reorder pattern rules to

+
+ * src/devices/grops/ps.cpp: Explicitly preprocessor-include

+
+ * src/include/lib.h: Add inclusion guard. Wrap only `extern "C"

+ section as an alias, report the glyph name.
+ - Identify the token for the unnamed character if an attempt
+ is made to alias it.
+ - When an out-of-range character type is applied to a glyph,
+ name the glyph.
+ (font::load_desc): Same.
+ - Drop redundant zero initialization of `res`.
+ - Check all directives that take basic units for positive
+ values, adding `res`, `unitwidth`, `paperwidth`, and
+ `paperlength`. Update this diagnostic to demand positive,
+ not nonnegative, values.
+ - When the font count is long in a `fonts` directive, report
+ how many font names were declared (and thus expected). (If
+ the count is short, the next line is read for a font name,
+ like 'tcommand' in our devutf8/DESC.)
+ - When interpreting a `papersize` directive, throw an error
+ and return false if `res` has not yet been encountered,
+ since it is used in subsequent computations.
+ - When a paper format cannot be determined, report the
+ original declared value from the DESC file. Use `strdup()`
+ to save it since it gets clobbered by the resolving process.
+ `free()` the saved string when we're done, regardless of
+ error condition.

+ [troff]: Handle special character escape sequences that map to
+ basic Latin glyphs in device control escape sequences
+ consistently among output devices.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (encode_char): Rearrange
+ conditionals. This is the logic that puts the "whatever" within
+ a \X'whatever' escape sequence into GNU troff's intermediate
+ output. Handle adjustable and nonadjustable space escape
+ sequences ("\~" and \ ") first. Then, if the token is a special
+ character escape sequence, retrieve its "contents" (glyph name).
+ Move the basic Latin mapping for the seven glyph names '-',
+ 'aq', 'dq', 'ga', 'ha', 'rs', and 'ti' here, before checking
+ whether the device description issued the
+ 'use_charnames_in_special' directive. This way, the 'html' and
+ 'xhtml' output devices can straightforwardly embed these basic
+ Latin characters in device control escapes (notably, "html:",
+ for which the present convention is to follow the this tag
+ immediately with a literal HTML URI, complete with `<a href>`
+ element syntax). If the special character is none of these and
+ we should 'use_charnames_in_special', proceed as groff 1.22.4
+ and earlier did. This is a behavior change, as was my addition

+ (.texi.dvi, .texi.pdf): Prefix directory creation with
+ `$(AM_V_at)` and `makeinfo` command with `$(AM_V_GEN)`. Send
+ diagnostic message to standard error if `texi2dvi` is

+ (.texi.html): Prefix directory creation with

+
+ (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): The `mostlyclean` target was leaving a file,

+ [nroff]: Support groff's -R flag to run refer(1).
+
+ There's no reason not to support calling `refer` with nroff-mode

+ GNU troff(1) supports an incompatible `-R` flag to suppress the
+ reading of troffrc{,-end} files, but this is likely not the `-R`
+ that users will want--it is most useful for troubleshooting

+
+ Include <config.h> before any standard headers.
+
+ Gnulib requires that files that might use Gnulib features (which

+ [ms]: Support user-defined TOC leader style.
+
+ * tmac/s.tmac (toc*leader-char): Rename it as...
+ (TC-LEADER): ...this; within PX, leave it unchanged, if
+ predefined.
+ (TC-MARGIN): New numeric register; if predefined, leave it
+ unchanged, otherwise define as \w'000'; use it instead of
+ hard-wired definition, within PX; see
+ <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61157>.
+

+ [pic]: Update input file name correctly.
+
+ * src/preproc/pic/troff.cpp (troff_output::set_location): Copy
+ the inbound file name argument with `strdup()` and store pointer
+ to this copy in `last_filename` instead of aliasing argument.
+ (troff_output::~troff_output): `free()` the memory allocated by
+ `strdup()` in destructor.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61206>. Pointer
+ assignment instead of a string copy was being performed, which
+ means that after its initial assignment, `last_filename` always
+ shared its value ultimately with the `current_filename` pointer
+ {a libgroff symbol}, so `strcmp()` was always being performed on
+ identical pointers. Problem appears to date back 30+ years, to
+ the dawn of our repo history.

+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load): Throw error if a font
+ description file is missing a `spacewidth` directive, since it
+ is now re-documented as mandatory. Atypically, we don't return

+ documentation said that the `name` directive was mandatory but
+ we didn't actually enforce this. Also be more specific in our

+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load): Add local Boolean
+ variable `saw_name_directive`. Rename `had_charset` to
+ `saw_charset_directive` for symmetry. Emit distinct diagnostics

+ non-numeric, or out-of-range argument. Emit diagnostic if the

+
+ [libgroff]: Slightly refactor.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (struct text_file): Rename member
+ variable `size` to `linebufsize` for clarity (it's certainly not
+ the size of the text file).
+ (text_file::text_file): Initialize `linebufsize` in constructor.
+ (text_file::next_line): Allocate new `buf` using `linebufsize`
+ instead of magic number (which was also stored to `size`, making
+ it only semi-magic, I guess). Rename local variable `i` to
+ `length` since it is in fact the length (in `char`s) of the
+ string stored in `buf`.

+ (fatal_with_file_and_line, error_with_file_and_line,

+
+ [libgroff]: Fix code style nits.

+ font::get_left_italic_correction,
+ font::get_subscript_correction, font::get_character_type,
+ font::get_code, font::get_special_device_encoding): These member
+ functions rely on the font being either indexed or associated
+ with an output device that uses the `unicode` directive in its
+ `DESC` file. The compiler doesn't know this, so annotate the
+ `abort()` calls that conclude them. Add an `assert()` before
+ each one to more usefully describe the violated invariant in the
+ event this unreachable code is somehow reached.
+ (font::get_width): Annotate special meaning of zero zoom factor.

+
+ [grohtml]: Fix compiler warning and dead store.
+
+ * src/devices/grohtml/post-html.cpp (html_printer::special):
+ Update call of `font::load_font()` to stop passing obsolete

+ stored to the parameter by that function was never read anyway,
+ so also get rid of the variable that contained it.

+ (load): Drop first parameter; likewise.
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load, load): As above.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (struct text_file): Rename

+ `silent` from `int` to `bool`.
+ (text_file::text_file): Use Boolean rather than integer literals
+ in constructor.
+ (text_file::next_line, font::load): Apply above renaming.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load): Rename parameter from
+ `head_only` to `load_header_only` to be more communicative.
+ Drop test of font description file name being `DESC`; this code
+ was not being reached. Stop throwing errors from this function
+ on failure to open the file; the caller will handle this when it
+ sees our false return value. Rename local variable `command` to
+ `directive` for alignment with our documentation. Replace "I
+ dont think this should happen" test and comment with `assert()`.
+ (struct table): Rename member from `command` to
+ `numeric_directive` to indicate its specificity, tracking only a
+ subset of valid `DESC` file directives.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load, font::load_desc):
+ Remove redundant assignments to the member variable formerly
+ known as `skip_comments`.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load_desc): Rename local
+ variable `directive_found` to `numeric_directive_found` to
+ clarify logic.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (mount_font_no_translate): Simplify
+ call of `font::load_font`. The `not_found` in-out parameter
+ which was so agonizingly passed up through layers of library
+ calls was never actually read. Drop code that has been `#if
+ 0`-ed out since 1993.

+
+ [grn, groff, troff]: Communicate better when device DESC file
+ can't be loaded.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/font.cpp (font::load_desc): Stop writing
+ diagnostic to standard error.
+ * src/preproc/grn/main.cpp (getres):
+ * src/roff/troff/troff.cpp (main): Replace "sorry, I can't
+ continue" fatal diagnostic with a more informative message.
+ Instead say which device's DESC file the program was trying to
+ open, which might reveal a user's logic error or typo.
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (main): Replace "invalid device" text
+ of fatal diagnostic similarly. I think it is more helpful to
+ indicate the operation that failed rather than saying the device
+ was invalid, particularly since there are other ways for a
+ device description to be invalid even if a DESC file is found
+ and loaded.
+
+2021-09-16 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Throw warning diagnostic if device DESC file attempts
+ to load unavailable fonts.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (main): Take advantage of new Boolean
+ return values of `mount_style()` and `mount_font()` to produce
+ warning diagnostics if mounting a style or font as directed by
+ the DESC file fails. Explain in a comment why, at present, this
+ style mount warning will never actually trip.
+
+2021-09-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Lift font mounting diagnostic messages to be closer to
+ their user-controlled contexts to provide more information. In
+ many cases no diagnostic was being thrown at all when an
+ unavailable font was requested by name, which is the method most
+ users prefer, and which meant that failures resulting from typos
+ in font names for many requests (`uf`, `fschar`, `rfschar`,
+ `special`, `fspecial`, `fzoom`, `bd`, `tkf`, `cs`) were going
+ unreported. Further, promote these font warnings to errors
+ because the request will utterly fail to do what was requested
+ with no reasonable fallback. Possibly, they were formerly
+ warnings because at the low level they were being emitted, they
+ could also have originated from unavailable fonts encountered in
+ device description files, and while that's bad news, it results
+ in no formatting problems if it doesn't affect fonts that an
+ input document actually uses.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (struct font_lookup_info): New struct
+ keeps the font name or position requested, and the position of
+ successful font lookup.
+ (font_lookup_info::font_lookup_info): Add constructor.
+ (font_lookup_error): New function builds error message using a
+ `font_lookup_info` struct and a message argument.
+ (get_fontno): Rename to...
+ (has_font): ...this. Add argument to take a pointer to a
+ `font_lookup_info` struct. Return a `bool` indicating whether
+ the lookup succeeded. Place former `int` return value into the
+ struct instead. Populate the other struct members with the
+ requested font name or position, as appropriate.
+ (mount_font_no_translate): Stop throwing warning diagnostic here
+ if a font cannot be loaded. Instead, throw them...
+ (font_position): ...here, and...
+ (underline_font, define_font_special_character,
+ remove_font_special_character, read_special_fonts,
+ font_special_request, font_zoom_request, bold_font, track_kern,
+ constant_space): ...here, using `font_lookup_info` structs and
+ `has_font()`.
+ (remove_font_special_character): Stop returning early if font
+ lookup fails; it's gratuitously inconsistent with other similar
+ functions (save one, which has a reason to be different).
+ (define_font_special_character): Return early if font lookup
+ fails and say why in a comment (we can't `skip_line()`).

+
+2021-09-15 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am: Add `.DELETE_ON_ERROR` special target; both GNU

+
+ Since June 1991 if not earlier, groff (technically, the refer,
+ lookbib, and lkbib programs) has trusted the header contents of
+ binary bibliographic index files (canonically generated with
+ indxbib(1)) regarding the sizes of the data structures that
+ follow in the file, a notorious class of security problem. In
+ July 2013, the Mayhem Team at Carnegie Mellon University
+ reported to the Debian Bug Tracking System a problem with

+ index file prepared by a fuzzer.
+
+ * src/libs/libbib/index.cpp (index_search_item::check_header):
+ Add new member function to validate the header of an indexed
+ bibliography file, returning a string describing in detail the

+ (index_search_item::load): Perform the foregoing check before
+ using any of the size values taken from the header; they are
+ relied upon for pointer arithmetic. If in verification mode
+ {using the undocumented `-V` flag to refer(1), lkbib(1), or
+ lookbib(1)}, report the details of the problem encountered.
+ Regardless of that mode, if there is a validity problem, report
+ corruption of the index file and abandon it, forcing fallback to

+ - `repeated` -> `is_repeating_stop`
+ Use Boolean instead of integer literals in assignments to them.

+
+ [troff]: Make `ab` request quiet if given no arguments. The
+ `tm`, `tm1`, and `tmc` requests provide ample flexibility for
+ constructing diagnostic messages prior to an error exit, and
+ it's convenient to make `ab` itself quiet instead of saying
+ "User Abort." as Unix Version 7 troff did. Further, there is no
+ standardization across troffs regarding what `ab` should emit if
+ arguments are absent.

+
+ * src/roff/troff/token.h (class token): Drop unused `title`

+ ChangeLog entry of 1990-09-06.
+
+2021-09-06 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+
+ [troff]: Boolify members of `token` class.

+
+2021-09-05 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (do_underline_special): Refactor
+ slightly.
+ - Rename `underline_spaces` -> `do_underline_spaces`.
+ - Demote it from an `int` to a `bool`.
+ - Use ternary operator and explicit character literals when
+ writing device control command instead of doing arithmetic
+ on a character literal.
+ - Update call sites to use Boolean literals.
+ - Relocate function to avoid forward reference.
+ - Mark function as static to eliminate external linkage.
+ Remove now-unnecessary prototype.
+
+2021-09-04 Keith Marshall <keith.d.marshall@ntlworld.com>
+
+ Add "ms" footnote marker placement hook.
+
+ * tmac/s.tmac (FS-MARK): New macro; define as no-op, by default.
+ (@FS): Invoke FS-MARK as first action, allowing caller to "hook" it.
+
+2021-09-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp (distribute_space): Refactor slightly.
+ - Rename `force_reverse` to `force_reverse_node_list`.
+ - Rename `reverse` to `do_reverse`.
+ - Demote both of the above from `int` to `bool`.
+ - Use Boolean literals with them.
+ - Add assertions to enforce positive values of `nspaces` and
+ `desired_space`.
+ - Remove now-redundant test for `nspaces` being positive.
+ - Add explanatory comments.
+ (environment::wrap_up_field): Update call sites of
+ `distribute_space` when non-default value of
+ `force_reverse_node_list` is supplied.
+
+2021-09-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Don't adjust nonadjustable lines. This means that the
+ direction from which an output line in adjustment mode "b" (or
+ its "n" synonym) is filled with supplemental space is not
+ changed if that output line does not require adjustment. This
+ will result in whitespace changes to documents using that
+ adjustment mode, and these changes will be plainly visible on
+ low-resolution output devices like terminals.
+
+ To illustrate, in the following "A" means an output line
+ requiring adjustment; "F" a line that is "full" and does not;
+ and "L" and "R" indicate distribution of adjustment spaces from
+ the left and right, respectively.

+
+ [libgroff]: Treat an empty $GROFF_TYPESETTER as unset.
+
+ * src/libs/libgroff/device.cpp (device_init::device_init): Test

+
+ [libgroff]: Rename font class member variable.
+

+ `defining` to `is_defining`.
+ (get_char_for_escape_name, do_define_macro): Update call sites
+ that use non-default arguments to use Boolean literals and
+ comments to document what's being requested.
+
+2021-08-17 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+
+ * src/preproc/grn/hdb.cpp: Perform more input validation.
+ Improve diagnostics by taking advantage of libgroff
+ infrastructure and tracking the line number of the input file.
+ Add global `lineno`.
+ (DBRead): Increment `lineno` after reading newlines from input.
+ Call `error_with_file_and_line()` instead of `error()`. If
+ input reports a negative length for the text (string) to follow
+ in the file, exit with a fatal diagnostic. Check for EOF while

+
+ * /src/preproc/grn/main.cpp (grnmalloc): New function takes

+
+ * src/preproc/grn/hdb.cpp (DBRead): Check return value of
+ `sscanf()` and call `fatal()` if no conversions succeeded. The
+ blithe discard of a useful return value is bad enough, but this
+ one took place inside a do-while such that it could loop
+ forever trying fruitlessly to parse two doubles out of strings
+ that didn't contain them (the loop never checked the EOF status
+ of the file stream from which it was reading, and relied on
+ `fgets()` to keep advancing the stream pointer). Discovered
+ while root-causing Savannah #61043.

+ Resolve compiler warnings relating to format string security and
+ ISO C++98 conformance.
+
+ * src/preproc/eqn/delim.cpp (define_extensible_string):

+ GCC "format-nonliteral" warning and explain why our usage is
+ safe in a comment.
+
+ * src/preproc/preconv/preconv.cpp (detect_file_encoding): Use
+ `l` modifier to `%u` `fprintf()` conversion instead of `z`, and
+ cast return values of `size_t` to unsigned long; "ISO C++98
+ does not support the ‘z’ gnu_printf length modifier" (it doesn't
+ support `ll` either). N.B. this is debugging output only.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (synopsis):

+
+ [man]: Clean up the interface between `an-footer` and `BT`, and

+ {see groff_man(7)} should have to worry about.
+
+ * tmac/an.tmac (BT): Drop test of `ps4html` register and early
+ return.
+ (an-header, an-footer): Return immediately if
+ `an-suppress-header-and-footer` is true. Remove conditional on
+ `an-is-output-html`.

+ language.
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp: Initialize `device_has_tcommand`

+ - `@macro_ms`, `@macro_man`, `@macro_man_or_ms` ->
+ `&infer_man_or_ms_package`

+ Delete unused object.
+ - `@standard_macro`
+ Add comments.
+
+2021-07-31 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.pl (do_line): When matching macro/request

+ groff_me(7) illustrate some real-world cases).
+
+2021-07-31 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.pl: Refactor macro package inference.
+ - Stop manually populating `Groff` hash. (It's itching for a
+ rename.)
+ - Stop calling now-dead subroutine `infer_macro_packages`.
+ (do_line): Always store the names of all macros called to the
+ `Groff` hash, incrementing it. Now it's a proper scoreboard.
+ Populate `inferred_main_package` from here upon encountering
+ characteristic (i.e., uniquely named) macros of each package.
+ Bug fix: drop "SP" from list of characteristic mom(7) macros;
+ it's shared with mm(7).
+ (infer_man_or_ms_package): Update comment. Return 0 (false) if
+ document appears to be "raw", using no full-service macro
+ package.
+ (infer_macro_packages): Delete; do_line() does this work.
+
+2021-07-31 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.pl: Refactor preprocessor inference.
+ - Add new list, `inferred_preprocessor`.
+ - Drop preprocessor-related keys from `Groff` hash.
+ - Drop scalar `inside_tbl_table`.
+ (do_line): Set up hash `preprocessor_for_macro`. Detect
+ preprocessor macros the way the preprocessors do, explained in a
+ comment. Respect AT&T compatibility mode when doing so. Build
+ list of inferred preprocessors. This replaces the extensive and
+ gaseous series of `if` statements that manipulated the `Groff`
+ hash.
+ (infer_preprocessors): Completely replace. Set up a hash
+ `option_for_preprocessor` mapping preprocessor names to groff
+ options (where applicable). Append to `command` and
+ `preprocessor` lists as appropriate. Sort the preprocessor
+ options so they don't move around in the argument list depending
+ on the order of their macros' appearance in the input.
+
+ * src/utils/grog/tests/smoke-test.sh: Update test cases to

+
+ [grohtml]: Fix code nit.
+

+
+2021-07-30 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Slightly refactor.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp: Add static `image_filename_len` to

+ (suppress_node::tprint): Compute image file name length only
+ when saving a new image file name. Use saved length in later

+ (min): Drop unused inline function.

+ features) caused by my commit
+ e876d4bfd193abb9a7d1fb6e76519349bded482a, 27 July. An empty
+ image file name is in fact semantically valid when writing a

+2021-07-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Refactor some internal functions.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp: Rename two functions that have only
+ one caller.
+ - get_reg_int -> get_register
+ - get_reg_str -> get_string
+ We now have:
+ (get_register, get_string): Use `assert()` aggressively because
+ these are deeply internal and validation is imperative. Get rid
+ of diagnostic messages (one of which perpetuated the dubious
+ "number register" nomenclature) accordingly.
+ (fetch_register): Also rename `prev_value`, misleadingly
+ specific and seemingly copy-and-pasted out of a context where an
+ auto-increment or -decrement might have been applied. It's just
+ the `value`.
+ (suppress_node::tprint): Update call site.
+
+2021-07-29 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Refactor `get_value` member functions. Given their
+ names and popular "getter/setter" paradigms from many OO
+ languages, the return type is misleading. Change it from `int`
+ to `bool` since it returns only a success/failure status and
+ modifies an argument (passed by reference) to deliver the
+ requested data.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/reg.h (reg, variable_reg):

+ [grohtml]: Fix Savannah #60981. Refactor device description
+ file handling and make it more robust. Make pre-grohtml's
+ -F option work as documented and honor device description file
+ semantics documented in groff_font(5).
+
+ * src/preproc/html/pre-html.cpp: Store partial filespecs of HTML
+ and PostScript device files in constant strings.
+ (get_resolution): Initialize `res` to zero. Only `free()` the
+ pointer `pathp` if `open_file()` succeeded (populating it).
+ Stop checking for valid `sscanf()` conversions of an integer to
+ store in `res`, and don't return early. Instead process the
+ whole DESC file; per our Texinfo manual and groff_font(5),
+ "Later entries in the file ... override previous values."
+ (get_image_generator): Add new function, paralleling
+ `get_resolution()`, replacing open-coded logic in `main()`.
+ Only the body of the `while` loop significantly differs.
+ Instead of using `sscanf`, process the input character by
+ character matching the keyword and {1,} spaces or tabs
+ after it. Whatever follows in `linebuf` must be the program
+ name.
+ (imageList::createPage): Add `assert()` to cause failure if an
+ empty image generator program gets this far, because it creates
+ repeated messes if it does. (Something isn't checking exit
+ statuses.)
+ (main): Condense `image_gen` collection to a function call, a
+ null pointer check, and a fatal diagnostic. Add a sanity check
+ and a fatal diagnostic if the PostScript resolution is garbage.
+ {It's initialized to -1 and `get_resolution()` will return 0 if
+ it doesn't find one.}

+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (do_suppress): Recast diagnostic
+ messages for clarity, to communicate in terms of what the
+ escape sequence _is_, and to quote literals expected as input.
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp (suppress_node::tprint): Recast
+ diagnostic to prevent misinterpretation of image "description"
+ as being HTML IMG tag alt text or something like that.
+ Unfortunately, the new language speaks in terms of internal
+ implementation details ("grohtml-info"), but at least that way
+ it's easier for a user to decide if they care about it.

+ [troff]: Avoid using sprintf() with user-controlled format
+ string.
+
+ * src/preproc/html/pre-html.cpp (makeFileName): Add comment
+ noting need for implementation synchrony between this function,
+ which generates \O5 escape sequences, and troff's
+ suppress_node::tprint member function, which interprets them.
+ * src/roff/troff/node.cpp: Rename 2 static globals for clarity.
+ - `last_image_filename` -> `image_filename`
+ - `last_image_id` -> `subimage_counter`
+ (suppress_node::tprint): Set up the buffer for image file name
+ to be written using a constant rather than an embedded literal.
+ Unconditionally initialize the buffer with a string terminator,
+ so there is no chance of a read from uninitialized storage.
+ Drop unused code involving `tem`. Drop stale comments. Clarify
+ comment: an `image_filename` doesn't _always_ contain a format
+ string, only sometimes. Replace use of `sprintf` with manual
+ construction of a new image filename string. There are two
+ cases, one where a format string {presently "%d"} is present,
+ and one where it is not. If it is present, locate it
+ {`percent`}. This means a limited/bounded image ("subimage") is
+ being processed; increment the subimage counter. Write a new
+ image file name preserving the parts before and after "%d" (the
+ "prefix" and "suffix", and replacing only the middle, using
+ `sprintf` with the subimage counter and the (string literal)
+ format. Be mindful of string bounds and memory allocation,
+ issuing diagnostics or aborting as necessary. If the image file
+ name does _not_ contain a format string, but needs only to be
+ copied, do that (`strcpy`), again instead of using `sprintf`.

+ [grohtml]: Fix Savannah #60971.
+
+ * src/preproc/html/pre-html.cpp (makeFileName): Consistently put
+ a dash at the end of `macroset_template` whether the image file
+ name stem is user-supplied or the default. Stop adding the dash
+ before the image number in `image_template` instead. This makes
+ the image file name format reliable whether the image needs to
+ be subdivided (eqn) or not (tbl).

+
+ * src/utils/hpftodit/hpftodit.cpp (show_symset): Prevent

+ Also add assert() before the sprintf() to abort if the int type
+ is even larger than that. Use "%u" conversion instead of "%d"
+ since the quantity is unsigned.

+
+ * src/roff/nroff/nroff.sh: Slightly refactor. Rename formerly

+
+2021-07-21 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/number.cpp (parse_term): Tweak diagnostic

+
+ [nroff]: Pass a supplied `-c` option to groff. While at present
+ this does little more than `-P-c` already achieves, that might
+ not be true forever. Further, there is a distinction between

+ ignoring color-related commands in device-independent output.
+ This distinction would make it unwise to adapt `-c` to any other
+ purpose in nroff in the future.
+
+ * NEWS: Update item from commit dd725dce, 10 February 2020.
+ * src/roff/nroff/nroff.sh: Pass `-c` option to groff in addition

+
+ [nroff]: Support space between option flags and their arguments.
+
+ * src/roff/nroff/nroff.sh: Add new `is_option_argument_pending`
+ flag to add an additional state to the option parser. Set it if
+ an argument-requiring option is encountered with no abutting
+ argument. If it is set when a new argument is encountered,
+ absorb the argument into the groff option list and clear the
+ flag. Modernize script in a couple of other ways.
+ - Exit with status 2 upon usage errors so that this condition
+ is easily distinguished from a groff abort (which exits with
+ status 1).
+ - Test shell variables for non-nullity with test(1) -n
+ operator instead of a string comparison.
+ * src/roff/nroff/tests/verbose_option_works.sh: Test correct
+ construction of groff command using this input form.
+ * src/roff/nroff/nroff.1.man (Options): Add spaces between

+ * src/roff/nroff/nroff.sh: Report `$prog` instead of "nroff"

+ "opt", for consistency with groff usage message. Use opposite
+ case from option letter for option argument.
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (usage): Put brackets around options.
+ Sort options in en_US lexicographic order. Drop `-v` from

+ [troff]: Refactor environment initialization, switching, and
+ copying.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/env.cpp: Rename struct `env_list` to
+ `env_list_node` since it describes a node of a singly-linked
+ list. Remove constant `NENVIRONMENTS` and array `env_table`.
+ Add static symbol `default_environment_name` to replace string
+ literal.
+ (init_environments): Stop initializing `curenv` through
+ `env_table`. Use `default_environment_name` for that
+ initialization and add the default environment to
+ `env_dictionary`.
+ (environment_switch): Simplify. Shorten "dummy environment"
+ diagnostic message. Stop creating an integer-named
+ environment inside the `env_table` array, only falling through
+ to use the `env_dictionary` if the named environment is not a
+ valid integer or if the array is full. Instead use
+ `env_dictionary` always. Drop no longer needed `pop`
+ quasi-Boolean integer with extra state to suppress environment
+ stack underflow errors. Instead report the error if underflow
+ occurs, regardless of any other circumstance.
+ (environment_copy): Simplify. Stop searching the `env_table`
+ array for an environment to copy from, only falling through to
+ use the `env_dictionary` if the named environment is not a valid
+ integer or if the array is full. Instead search
+ `env_dictionary` always. Emit "no environment specified to copy
+ from" diagnostic only if the `evc` request is given no argument.
+ If the source environment to copy from is given but not found,
+ emit a new diagnostic naming the nonexistent environment. Fix
+ bug: stop returning early if no copying could be done; instead
+ fall through to the end of the function, which calls
+ `skip_line()` and prevents anything on the remainder of the
+ {invalid} control line from being interpreted. Problem dates
+ back to commit da3b7137, 6 March 2000 (groff 1.16).

+ broad swaths of the file including portions outside of any macro
+ definition where comments were used. But comments are expressed
+ using the escape character! So we got warnings about an
+ undefined '\"' macro, and that was just the beginning of a
+ wrecking ball of trouble that smashed through the
+ implementation. Some--but not all--string definitions (and
+ appendments) needed to be bracketed with `eo` and `ec` as well,
+ to delay interpolation of embedded string names that are not
+ defined until macros interpolate them later. I did what
+ appeared necessary to pass our tests and keep -Tutf8 and -Tps
+ renderings of tmac/groff_mdoc.7 from changing from their
+ strip-influenced output. Subtle bugs might linger, but some
+ won't be the fault of the unstripping process. (For instance,

+ - Use grave accents instead of acute ones to indicate stress
+ on word-final vowels. Per the University of Wikipedia and a
+ sampling of apparently well-typeset Italian language
+ documents online, this appears to be correct. Yell at me if
+ I'm wrong.
+ - Source latin1.tmac instead of latin9.tmac; Italian doesn't
+ require any letter code points from Latin-9, unlike the
+ French file upon which this one was based, and Latin-1 is
+ less of a pain to work with.
+ - Set the hyphenation mode to 1 instead of 4 for congruence
+ with the requirements of the hyphenation patterns.
+ - Set up hyphenation codes. This (and sourcing latin1.tmac)
+ might not be necessary as the hyphenation pattern file, of a
+ more recent vintage than the others we're using, is pure
+ ASCII. However I don't understand these issues perfectly so
+ I am making the conservative choice. Again per the
+ University of Wikipedia, Italian requires only acute and
+ grave accents, in contrast to the rich French diacritical
+ bouillabaisse.
+ - Set the hyphenation language and load the pattern file.
+ - Add comments in parallel with other localization files and
+ to supply text editors with hints.

+ [grog]: Refactor input parsing.
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.pl:
+ - Add scalar `use_compatibility_mode` (see below).
+ - Add list `request` to store the names of all requests
+ recognized by groff so that they aren't confused with macro
+ names.
+ - Add scalars `have_seen_first_macro_call` (replaces
+ `before_first_command`, but at global scope),
+ `is_continued_line` and `logical_line`. The latter two
+ enable us to handle *roff input line continuation correctly.
+ (process_arguments): Set `use_compatibility_mode` if `-C`
+ option specified.
+ (process_input): Refactor to greatly simplify, to not attempt
+ to read the first line of an input file as a special case, and
+ to avoid sending `do_line` an undefined argument (when EOF is
+ reached).
+ (do_first_line): Delete.
+ (do_line): Rewrite the early stages of input parsing.
+ - Concatenate continued input lines, setting
+ `is_continued_line` and returning early as each one is seen,
+ storing the accumulating input in `logical_line`.
+ - Check the input line for the form of comment deposited by
+ Perl's Pod::Man, which uses a highly accented dialect of
+ man(7); if it's present, inflate `man_score` to compensate
+ for the page-private `IX` macro it defines but which
+ duplicates the name and function of a 4.2BSD-era ms(7)
+ extension that would otherwise deceive our scoring
+ mechanism, because Pod::Man produces `IX` calls to
+ metastatic excess. (An alternative to this kludge is
+ documented in comments: if a "standard" macro is redefined,
+ we could delete it from the relevant lists and hashes.)
+ - Strip *roff comments from input.
+ - Normalize control lines; convert the no-break control
+ character to the regular one and remove unnecessary
+ white space.
+ - Remove brace escapes.
+ - Recognize two-character macro calls when not followed by
+ white space in compatibility mode.
+ - Drop logic that erroneously attempted to infer soelim(1) use
+ from macro calls and request invocations. The grog(1) and
+ soelim(1) man pages now both explain why such an effort was
+ misguided.
+ - Recognize macro definitions created by .am and .am1 requests
+ {not just .de and .de1}.
+ - Ignore all other *roff requests.
+ - What remains must be a ("standard") macro call, so set
+ `have_seen_first_macro_call`.
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.1.man (Limitations): Document a further
+ restriction: don't change the escape character, either.
+
+ * src/utils/grog/tests/smoke-test.sh: Comment out pic-detection
+ test on soelim(1). The pic macro calls are guarded by roff
+ control structures and only worked previously by accident
+ because grog did not recognize *roff input line continuation,
+ now it does and the illusion is dispelled. (A reliable way to

+ that take an optionally whitespace-separated option argument
+ and apply the existing "delayed option" handling to them.
+ Push any groff option except `-m` as-is onto the constructed
+ groff command's argument list (`-m` handling is unchanged).
+ Match long option names exactly, not sloppily. Stop
+ recognizing `--warnings` option. Emit error diagnostic if
+ unrecognized long option encountered.
+ (infer_device): Delete subroutine and its top-level call site.
+ (help): Undocument `--warnings`.
+
+ * src/utils/grog/grog.1.man:
+ (Synopsis): Use font style macros instead of .OP. Undocument
+ `--warnings`.
+ (Options): Note that the groff arguments produced by the grog
+ `--ligatures` option are supported only by the `pdf` device.
+ Undocument `--warnings`. Undocument groff-incompatible
+ restriction on whitespace before option arguments; grog is
+ compatible now. Simplify discussion in light of simplified
+ grog logic.
+ (Details): Undocument scenario where grog infers multiple
+ main/major/full-service macro packages; this no longer
+ happens.
+ (Examples): Update to no longer illustrate inclusion of `-T
+ ps` option; this no longer happens by default.

+ options to permit optional whitespace. Rename scalar `was_T` to
+ `delayed_option`.
+ (infer_device): Stop unconditionally adding a `-T ps` argument
+ to the generated groff command. Remove logic that validates any
+ given `-T` option argument; instead, let groff fail if a bad one
+ is supplied (its own diagnostics in this scenario were improved
+ in commit 5a721a30, 27 May). This makes grog agnostic about any

+ (do_first_line): Stop emitting pseudo-diagnostic (to standard
+ output!) if we see a "groff options line" [it's not] of
+ incorrect form. The preprocessor encoding hint convention of
+ concern here is particular to man pages, disregarded by at least
+ one major implementation thereof (man-db man), and not used by
+ other types of roff documents; at this point, we don't yet know
+ if the document we're processing is a man page.
+ (construct_command): Correct comment and related logic error.

+ - Simplify determination of version number. Drop hash `at_at`
+ which only stored one key, `GROFF_VERSION`. Initialize
+ scalar `groff_version` to "DEVELOPMENT". Rename scalar
+ `before_make` to `in_source_tree` and initialize to zero.
+ Update `groff_version` with Automake-determined version
+ variable if it is defined (i.e., grog is not running outside
+ of, or in an unbuilt, groff source or binary distribution).
+ - Drop unused `Mparams` list. Replace it with new list
+ `requested_package`, which stores the arguments to any grog
+ `-m` options specified by the user.
+ - Rename many objects so that I, and others, can better
+ comprehend their purpose, and for consistent letter casing.
+ . @Command -> @command
+ . @devices -> @device

+ . &make_groff_line_rest -> &construct_command
+ - Drop many unused keys in `Groff` hash.
+ - Add new lists, `macro_ms`, `macro_man`, and
+ `macro_man_or_ms` to support new scoring technique to
+ disambiguate input documents between these two packages.
+ - Append the foregoing 3 lists to new list `standard_macro`,
+ and add these as keys to the `Groff` hash.
+ - Add new list `main_package` to keep track of full-service
+ package names.
+ - Add new scalars `man_score`, `ms_score`, and
+ `inside_tbl_table` to aid disambiguation of .TH macro calls
+ and the many macro names shared between man(7) and ms(7).
+ (process_arguments): Strip '-m' off of argument before storing
+ the remainder in `@requested_package`.
+ (do_line): Detect .TH macro call even if white space occurs
+ between the control character and the macro name.
+ (do_line): Inflate `$man_score` by 100 if .TH is the first
+ macro call seen in a document.
+ (do_line): Fix bug; clear `$before_first_command` in correct
+ scope--after any macro call, not just if we saw a .TH as the
+ first macro call.
+ (do_line): Set `$inside_tbl_table` when we see a .TS call.
+ (do_line): Clear `$inside_tbl_table` when we see a .TE call.
+ Also increment `$Groff{'tbl')' again, increasing the "score"
+ of tbl(1) usage evidence.
+ (do_line): Drop a lot of code that manually increments %Groff
+ keys corresponding to man and ms macros. This is now done
+ differently and elsewhere.
+ (do_line): Drop "P" from list of characteristic mm(7) macros.
+ (do_line): Simplify matching of mom(7) macros (match $command,
+ not $line). Extend list of characteristic mom(7) macros.
+ (do_line): Increment $Groff{$key} if $key is in
+ @standard_macro.
+ (infer_man_or_ms_package): Rewrite. Compute a score for each
+ package by counting occurrences of their characteristic
+ macros. If both have a score of zero, assume that the input
+ is a raw roff document. If the scores are equal
+ {doc/webpage.ms, startlingly, comes within 1 point of a tied
+ score}, infer ms(7) if 'TH' was never called, and if it was,
+ issue a diagnostic advising user to supply a disambiguating
+ `-m` option. Otherwise, the scores are unequal: infer the
+ package of the winner. Set scalar `inferred_main_package`
+ instead of pushing `-m` options onto `@m`.
+ (infer_macro_packages): Set scalar `inferred_main_package`
+ instead of pushing `-m` options onto `@m`. Explicitly return
+ 0 if we fall off the end of the function.
+ (construct_command): Rewrite handling of -m options. Add new
+ list `msupp` to store supplementary (non-main) macro package
+ arguments. If a full-service package was explicitly
+ requested, it had better not clash with what we inferred. If
+ it does, explicitly unset `inferred_main_package` so that the
+ -m arguments are placed in the same order that the user gave
+ them; caveat dictator. If `--run` option was given, just
+ print the command; don't preface it with __FILE__ and __LINE__
+ noise.
+ - Remove comments documenting shared variables used by
+ subroutines. These are far from useless but too tedious to
+ keep up to date while the code is in flux.
+ - Note several places for further code review or refactoring
+ with "XXX" comments.
+ - Add Vim modeline.
+
+ grog now passes all its tests and correctly infers arguments for
+ all in-tree groff documents (except for a known, and already
+ documented in grog(1), false positive detection of soelim in
+ soelim(1)). This refactor also obviates or resolves several
+ outstanding Savannah tickets.
+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?44707> by obviating it;
+ grog no longer cares about file name extensions on man pages (or
+ any other input).

+
+ Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59664>. The attached

+ Its author made the following claim for it: "With this patch,
+ all 'man', 'me', 'mom, and 'ms' files in the repository are
+ correctly identified. The only example of a 'mm'-file is
+ "letter.mm", which is not recognized correctly." As noted
+ above, the present refactor achieves correct recognition of all
+ of the files, including letter.mm.

+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Assigning Formats): Revise discussion.

+
+2021-06-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ [troff]: Clarify diagnostics.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/reg.cpp (reg::set_increment): Update diagnostic

+
+2021-06-25 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+

+
+ [ms]: Fix doc omission; .ID can take an argument.

+
+ * tmac/e.tmac-u: Rename registers for clarity. Unlike other

+ (@R): Prefix register existence test with `do`.
+ (@html_check_need_title): Define with `do` since the macro name

+ as empty.
+ (nm, n1, n2): Prefix handling of long register names `_#p` and
+ `_#f` with `do` request.
+ (top level): Prefix `mso` request with `do`.

+
+ Indent an IP paragraph based on the type size of the paragraph

+ attempted to do by simply passing the argument unevaluated down

+ right away, as appears customary in this ms implementation.
+
+ However, par@reset is called from a great number of places, and
+ these usually set the indent registers beforehand. I've left
+ this as it is, so now two ways of setting the indents exist: via
+ register and optionally via argument.
+
+ * tmac/s.tmac (par@reset): Move font-size setting stuff before

+ Refactor grog even more aggressively. Make the tedious search

+
+ * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp: Revise usage message.
+ (synopsis): Set primary synopsis on a single output line, for

+ (help): Collate option flags in English lexicographic order.
+ Include space after flag letters for options that take
+ arguments. Consistently use capitals for option arguments
+ because they are space-separated here. Illustrate longer forms
+ of -d and -r options. Update language (some, like "tmac.name",

+
+ * tmac/groff_www.7.man: Stop using the "www" macro package. The

+ without requiring explicit effort from page authors.
+ (initialization): Stop sourcing www.tmac. Stop calling .LK and

+
+ [man]: Fix stochastic vertical space loss problems in continuous
+ rendering mode by being more scrupulous about extending the page
+ length. As noted in Savannah #60611, sometimes the vertical
+ space between a header line and the first section heading
+ {"Name"} would be reduced or removed altogether, in a way that
+ was highly sensitive to circumstances. As far as I can tell,
+ the problem is that this vertical space disappeared only when we
+ were in double-secret probation no-space mode; this is the
+ special non-spacing mode {not apparent with inspection of
+ \n[.ns]} that happens when the stealth internal page location
+ trap is sprung. This trap does not appear in .ptr output but
+ can be disabled with ".vpt 0", which is an alternative fix for
+ this problem {because continuous rendering mode does not use
+ vertical position traps at all}. Another fix might have been to
+ simply call the moral equivalent of ".pl MAXINT" as soon as
+ continuous rendering mode was decided upon.
+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac (an-header): In continuous rendering mode,
+ extend the page length by one line before calling PT to output

+ [man]: Fix missing page footers when continuously rendering
+ multiple documents. Resolving this uncovered entangled header
+ and footer management bugs with batch processing even when _not_
+ continuously rendering.
+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac (an-start-new-document): New macro clears
+ header trap so it doesn't get called with stale information.
+ {The TH macro already replants a header trap with every man
+ page if not continuously rendering.} This macro also absorbs
+ the break-page and page number incrementation logic from TH.
+ (TH): Adapt semantics of "an-first" register to mean not "first
+ page rendered" (apparently) but "first page of new document".
+ If we are _not_ on the first page of a new document and the TH
+ macro is called, we must be batch processing: force the previous
+ man page to end (call an-end if continuously rendering, or
+ an-start-new-document if not). After all the header and footer
+ strings have been configured for the man page, call an-header if
+ we're on the first page of the document, not (just) if we're
+ continuously rendering. Zero an-first register at end of macro
+ here unconditionally instead of conditionally in .an-header.
+ (an-header): Drop conditional on continuous rendering.
+
+ When I batch-render our 62 man pages to the terminal, I do note
+ one cosmetic regression: the lj4_font(5) page, when continuously
+ rendered in batch processing, has no space between its header
+ line and first section heading ("Name"). Another cosmetic issue
+ in this scenario is that the footers for every rendered page but
+ the last, which had (wrongly) been absent entirely, are set with
+ no space after them and the header of the next.

+ * tmac/an-old.tmac (initialization): Key the reprocessing guard
+ {like a C language #include guard} on the existence of the TH
+ macro instead of RI. The latter seemed kind of random and TH
+ is even more guaranteed to exist; it is the macro name most
+ characteristic of the man(7) language and the andoc.tmac
+ superstructure relies on it. (TH may have been avoided because
+ of its use with tbl(1); however, neither man(7) nor mdoc(7)
+ support tbl's TH feature, and GNU tbl does not supply its own
+ empty fallback definition as it does for TS and TE. If we ever
+ want TH-like functionality in future man pages, I suggest we
+ pick a new, non-colliding name for it.)
+ (initialization): Relocate load of devtag package; we don't
+ need it before entering compatibility mode. Move assignment of
+ format of an-page-letter register from a "loose declaration"
+ amid macro definitions to within existence test of X register.
+ Stop initializing an-extra[123] strings outside of any macro;
+ they need to be reinitialized at every TH call when batch
+ rendering.
+ (TH): Call DT in a less surprising place.
+ (TH): Initialize all header/footer-related strings before
+ calling header macros, even those not needed for the default
+ header configuration.
+ (TH): Add style warnings for underspecified arguments.
+ (an-ne): Rename register from "an-need", which is pretty
+ confusing in context, to "an-amount", since (1) a (vertical)
+ amount is what it is, and (2) it's only used within this macro.
+ Also due to factor (2), remove the register after using it.

+
+ * man/groff_char.7.man (Glyph tables/Mathematical symbols): Fix

+ See Werner Lemberg's ChangeLog entry of 2003-01-05. Problem

+
+ * tmac/tty.tmac: Replace fallback glyphs for radical extension

+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac (SH): Fix apparent thinko. Pass the devtags
+ macro a literal "1" argument. Passing it \n[an-level] wasn't
+ correct (it stores the relative inset level, not a sectioning
+ level), and was useless anyway: SH has already called
+ .an-set-margin by this point, which resets \n[an-level] to 1.
+ man(7) does not support nesting of SH macros. Also call

+
+ Implement new .soquiet and .msoquiet requests.
+
+ Needed for two planned developments: {1} the i18n patch in
+ Savannah #59814 can use this to quietly attempt to open a
+ localization file. groff only supports a few locales, so people
+ with LANG=es_ES, for instance, would ordinarily see warning
+ diagnostics on every groff startup; and {2} system- or
+ site-configurable support of per-user {.,}troffrc or man.local
+ files, gracefully failing if they don't exist.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp:
+ (do_source): Add new function, taking boolean "quietly"
+ parameter and absorbing function of source(), with added
+ conditional.
+ (source): Convert into a wrapper to call do_source() unquietly.
+ (source_quietly): Wrap do_source(), quietly.
+ (do_macro_source, macro_source, macro_source_quietly): Analogous

+ Recast introductory paragraph to better distinguish the
+ automatic breaking of words and placement of hyphens at

+ automatic determination of hyphenation points within words (what
+ the pattern files and most of the hyphenation mode parameters
+ are for). Clarify that what our manual calls "automatic
+ hyphenation" pertains only to the latter.
+ <hw> Correct over-general claim; hyphenation exceptions defined
+ with the .hw request _do_ honor .hy value 2 (don't break a word
+ at the bottom of a page), but none of the others.
+ <\%> Recast description of escape to emphasize independence of
+ its two uses (e.g., "\%pseudo\%unununium" is hyphenated only
+ after "pseudo-", if at all).
+ <\:> Clarify that escape is an input word boundary.
+ <shc> Clarify that the soft hyphen glyph is applied to manual as
+ well as automatically-determined hyphenation points.
+ <hy> Recharacterize as setting the _automatic_ hyphenation mode.
+ Note that restrictions apart from value 2 are not applied to
+ words with manually-assigned hyphenation points.
+ <nh> Note that request affects only automatic hyphenation.
+
+ * man/groff.7.man (Requests/Request short reference) <.hy,.nh>:
+ Clarify that requests deal with _automatic_ hyphenation.
+ (Registers/Read-only registers) <.hy>:

+ * tmac/s.tmac: Improve diagnostic messages.
+ (@diag): New macro wraps .tm request, always prefixing it with
+ the name of the macro package, as well as file and line
+ indicators only if these are set to non-empty or non-zero
+ values, respectively.
+ (@error, @warning): Call @diag instead of .tm directly.
+ (@fatal): Retire; it had only one call site and it would have
+ greatly complicated @diag to support calling .ab instead of .tm.
+ An ugly alternative would have been to call .ab with a redundant
+ message after calling @diag.
+ (@divert): New macro wraps .di request, remembering the name of
+ the current file (\n[.F]) when a diversion is started.
+ (@error-recover): Call .ab instead of (deleted) @fatal.
+ (pg@super-eject): Tell user what the last file name seen was
+ when recovering from an unfinished diversion when processing
+ ends.

+ Fix bug where having line numbering off but the output line

+ * contrib/gperl/gperl.pl:
+ * contrib/gpinyin/gpinyin.pl:
+ * tmac/hyphenex.pl: Avoid Perl's unsafe "<>" operator.
+
+ The "<>" operator is implemented using the two-argument form of
+ "open", which interprets magic such as pipe characters, allowing
+ execution of arbitrary commands which is unlikely to be
+ expected. Perl >= 5.22 has a "<<>>" operator which avoids this,
+ but also forbids the use of "-" to mean the standard input,
+ which is a facility that the affected groff programs document.
+
+ ARGV::readonly would probably also fix this, but I fundamentally
+ dislike the approach of escaping data in preparation for a
+ language facility to unescape it, especially when the required
+ escaping is as non-obvious as it is here. (For the same reason,
+ I prefer to use subprocess invocation facilities that allow
+ passing the argument list as a list rather than as a string to
+ be interpreted by the shell.) So I've abandoned this dubious
+ convenience and changed the affected programs to iterate over
+ command-line arguments manually using the three-argument form of
+ open.

+ Document use of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and TZ.
+
+ The semantics of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to groff were not established
+ with respect to time zone selection, prompting divergent
+ interpretations; Debian and distributions derived from it have
+ for several years patched groff to implicitly use UTC as the
+ time zone when interpreting the current time (or
+ SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH) as a local time. While a convenient and
+ defensible choice for reproducible build efforts[1], it runs
+ against the grain of user expectations. Systems programmers
+ like monotonically increasing clocks; the broader user base
+ usually prefers a clock that follows an applicable civil
+ calendar. To the latter audience, a difference between
+ $ date "+%Y-%M-%d %H:%m:%S"
+ and
+ $ groff <<EOF

+ who want to go straight to "raw" troff without knowing much or
+ anything about existing macro packages. Thanks to Dave Kemper
+ and John Gardner for feedback and support.
+
+ Clarify whitespace usage. "Whitespace" is defined in this
+ manual as "spaces, tabs, and newlines". Say only "spaces and
+ tabs" when newlines should not be included.
+
+ Rename "Font Files" to "Device and Font Files".
+
+ Rename "Manipulating Filling and Adjusting" to "Manipulating
+ Filling and Adjustment".
+
+ Update discussion of "copy mode". Rename from "copy-in mode",
+ which I don't think eludicdated anything; is there a "copy-out
+ mode"? Rename nodes accordingly. Attempt to explain more
+ clearly. Recast to shift emphasis to what _isn't_ merely copied
+ in copy mode, since that is what seems to cause confusion among
+ the inexperienced.
+
+ Update "Conditionals and Loops". Add introductory paragraph.
+ Add nodes/subsections "if-then" and "Conditional Blocks". Add
+ subsection "Conditional Blocks" to explain the behavior of the
+ \{ and \} escapes much more precisely. I don't think this
+ syntactical area is well understood. Supply examples.

+ with a leading dot; this was already done in four cases.
+ (cov*first-page-init): Use temporary string to avoid multi-line

+ (@NH): Use temporary string to prevent overlength line.
+
+ A further benefit of this revision is that index information
+ produced by ms's .IX macro (which writes to the standard error

+ (PT): Save the format of %, set it to decimal, copy its value to

+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac: Drop .ll hack for LL register.
+
+ Drop the .ll hack for setting the line length on nroff devices.
+
+ Once upon a time, the only way to get man pages to render on a
+ terminal at any width other than the nroff default of 65n was to
+ put an .ll request into the page--a mortal sin against
+ portability--or your man(1) program could sneak such a request
+ into nroff's input stream.
+
+ Also, long ago, John Eaton of UT Austin wrote a man(1) program.
+ In a few years this implementation branched into two lines of
+ development, which I'll call man-db man (Wilford/Polacco/Watson)
+ and another, Brouwer/Lucifredi man, which as of this writing saw
+ its last release in 2011 (1.6g).
+
+ The man and mdoc macros of groff 1.18 (July 2002) introduced an
+ LL register to configure the line length, respecting an -rLL
+ command-line option. The source change was made by Werner
+ Lemberg on 3 May 2002 and Colin Watson updated man-db man(1)--on
+ the same day!--to synthesize the option when calling groff.
+
+ Later, in August 2005, Keith Marshall, a user of version 1.5m of
+ Brouwer/Lucifredi man(1), which did not set the LL register,
+ suggested that the existing .ll setting (technically, the value
+ of \n[.l], the only way the result of an .ll request could be
+ introspected) be honored in the absence of the LL register.
+ However, it is impossible to distinguish a user-supplied ".ll
+ 65n" request from nroff's default setting, which was in that
+ case overridden to the modern default of 78n.
+
+ And so, in what is now git commit
+ f9d5df4aebd3d834b4084ffefa52a115e00dce38 (1 September 2005), it
+ was done.
+
+ This led to (1) surprising behavior for users accustomed to old
+ methods and desirous of the nroff default and (2) lengthy
+ apologia in groff source code comments and the groff_man(7) man
+ page.
+
+ Ironically, Brouwer/Lucifredi man(1) had already added support
+ for the LL register by the time of its 1.6 release two months
+ earlier (20 June 2005). (Curiously, it did so similarly to the
+ old .ll hack, by injecting an '.nr LL' request into groff's
+ input stream, rather than using the -r command-line option.)
+ Moreover, Marshall and the groff list were already aware of
+ this, but the change was accepted anyway because version 1.6
+ was "too new"! (Distributions are slow sometimes, true...)
+
+ Let us survey the field in 2020. man-db man(1) has supported
+ the LL register for eighteen years, and Brouwer/Lucifredi man(1)
+ for fifteen. Heirloom Doctools's man macros set the line length
+ to 78n on nroff devices unconditionally. mandoc(1) similarly
+ also always formats for 78 columns on terminals. groff's
+ mdoc(7) macros grew support for LL in parallel with man(7) in
+ 2002 and never added the \n[.l] introspection at all.
+
+ There no longer seems to be any reason to preserve this hack.
+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac (initialization): Drop complex setup of LL

+ The only man page we have that doesn't turn compatibility mode

+
+ The @g@ command prefix is the main avenue for intrusion of such

+ include apostrophes, double quotes, carets, grave accents, or
+ tildes in the command prefix; some or all of these will pick
+ fights with the shell and require quoting that we don't
+ represent in man page text anyway.
+
+ On top of that, neqn is largely a stub page.
+
+ If it's a problem, a better fix than reverting this is to make
+ neqn switch out of compatibility mode like our other man pages.

+ Migrate macro packages from font CW to CR. The font name "CW"
+ {"constant-width"} is a legacy item we can dispose of (except
+ for the DVI device, which also has CWI for "constant-width
+ italic"), and much of the groff codebase already did starting
+ with commit 0de1d6d79cdb959ffa7dac3af77c2a36ef31873f {October
+ 2017}. Courier is available in the usual four styles {roman,
+ bold, italic, bold+italic}.
+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac (.EX): Set font to R, not CW. The existing
+ .ft request was somewhat redundant with the '.do fam C'
+ immediately before, which set the font family to Courier.
+ * tmac/s.tmac (.UC): Use font CR, not CW.
+
+2020-07-23 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * tmac/tty.tmac: Stop suppressing nonexistent font warning.
+ Prompted by a 2017 suggestion and patch from Bjarni Ingi

+ on terminal (nroff) devices (and -Thtml as well).

+

+ argument to .ss request, and eliminate hackish use of .nop
+ request.
+
+ * man/groff_diff.7.man (New number registers): Recast in

+ (Usage/Coding Tags): Stop manipulating line adjustment. Use
+ hyphen-minus (\- escape) characters in coding tag names, since

+
+ Implement new read-only .cp register.
+
+ Within a .do request, \n[.cp] holds the saved value of
+ compatibility mode.
+
+ The register \n[.cp] is specialized and may require a statement
+ of rationale. When writing macro packages or documents that use
+ groff features and which may be mixed with other packages or
+ documents that do not—common scenarios include serial processing
+ of man pages or use of the .so or .mso requests—you may desire
+ correct operation regardless of compatibility mode in the
+ surrounding context. It may occur to you to save the existing
+ value of \n(.C into a register, say, _C, at the beginning of
+ your file, turn compatibility mode off with “.cp 0”, then
+ restore it from that register at the end with “.cp \n(_C”. At
+ the same time, a modular design of a document or macro package
+ may lead you to multiple layers of inclusion. You cannot use
+ the same register name everywhere or you risk “clobbering” the
+ value from a preceding or enclosing context. The two‐character
+ register namespace of AT&T troff is confining and mnemonically
+ challenging; you may wish to use groff's more capacious
+ namespace. However, attempting “.nr _my_saved_C \n(.C” will not
+ work in compatibility mode; the register name is too long.
+ “This is exactly what .do is for,” you think, “.do nr
+ _my_saved_C \n(.C”. The foregoing will always save zero to your
+ register, because .do turns compatibility mode off while it
+ interprets its argument list. What you need is:
+ .do nr _my_saved_C \n[.cp]
+ .cp 0
+ at the beginning of your file, followed by
+ .cp \n[_my_saved_C]
+ at the end. As in the C language, we all have to share one big
+ namespace, so choose a register name that is unlikely to collide
+ with other uses.

+ with @GROFF_BIN_PATH_SETUP@ (enabling the rename); instead, let
+ test-groff handle that for us. Locate it and export the
+ variable GROFF_TEST_GROFF so nroff can find it. Because we
+ manipulate $PATH to run the tests, the $PATH of an installed

+
+ Make our assert() C99-conformant.
+
+ groff has its own implementation of the standard C library's

+
+ Enable backtracing across process/file boundaries when errors or
+ non-ignored warnings are encountered.
+
+ Experimentation reveals that .so, .mso, and .pso requests acted
+ as barriers to backtracing except when explicitly requested with
+ the .backtrace request. Judging by the git history, this
+ behavior dates back to June 1991 or earlier. The intention,
+ according to a source comment, was only to suppress the
+ backtrace output for the line corresponding to the outermost
+ level of the input stack (commonly, a file argument to groff).
+ Unfortunately, that wasn't its only effect.
+
+ This change does result in one additional line of output for
+ each error or (non-ignored) warning when -b is given. However,
+ I regard this as unobjectionable because {1} a backtrace was in
+ fact explicitly requested; and {2} it seems a poor tradeoff to
+ suppress most of the backtrace in some complicated and
+ frustrating cases for the sake of one fewer line of backtrace
+ output in a trivial one.
+
+ Now, backtracing behaves the same no matter what triggers it.
+
+ Fixes Savannah #58153.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (file_iterator::backtrace): Call
+ get_location() for its side effect of rewriting a filename of
+ "-" to "<standard input>", for consistency with other diagnostic
+ messages. (In this class, this member function always returns
+ 1, so ignore the return value. This fact is an essential part
+ of what led to the bug; the conditional
+ p && !p->get_location(0, &f, &n)
+ which appeared in the for loop of input_stack::backtrace() prior
+ to this change would always evaluate to false when a node of the
+ file_iterator class was encountered.)
+ (input_stack::backtrace): Replace member function body with that
+ of input_stack::backtrace_all().
+ (input_stack::backtrace_all): Delete.
+ (backtrace_request): Update the only call site of the above.
+

+ * src/roff/groff/groff.am (groff_TESTS): Run test.

+
+ Reorganize backtrace output.
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (string_iterator::backtrace):
+ Prefix the output with the program name if it is known. In a
+ deviation from the GNU Coding Standards, put the string
+ "backtrace:" immediately next instead of the file and line
+ number; this is because, particularly in cases where the
+ backtrace is most interesting or needed, it will produce
+ multiple lines of output and the common prefix aids visual
+ understanding.
+ (file_iterator::backtrace): As above; also, change prefix for
+ popened nodes in the iterator from "process" to "pipe". This
+ seemed preferable to omitting the information entirely or using
+ an inscrutable sigil like 'f' or 'p'. The advantage is that the
+ output is better aligned--better ergonomics for those who have
+ to cope with a lot of it. Furthermore, output the filename only
+ once.
+
+ Example of old and new output:
+
+ /tmp/inner:2: backtrace: file '/tmp/inner'
+ echo .so /tmp/inner:1: backtrace: process 'echo .so /tmp/inner'
+ /tmp/outer:1: backtrace: file '/tmp/outer'
+
+ troff: backtrace: file '/tmp/inner':2
+ troff: backtrace: pipe 'echo .so /tmp/inner':1
+ troff: backtrace: file '/tmp/outer':1

+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (read_size): Add units to diagnostic.
+ This function works only with device-specific basic units
+ internally; users likely think in terms of point size, so add
+ the basic unit suffix "u" to offer a hint about what's going on.
+
+ Example:
+ $ groff -ww >/dev/null
+ \s[10]A\s[-12]B
+ troff: <standard input>:1: warning: point-size escape results in
+ non-positive size -2000u; set to 1u
+
+ On a PostScript device with 1000 basic units to the point, the
+ difference is important and would be confusing without the unit
+ indication.
+
+2020-04-08 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ Correct and clarify point size documentation.
+
+ Our Texinfo manual has long documented the request '.ps 0' as
+ restoring the previous point size (just as '\s0' or '.ps' with
+ no argument does), but this is incorrect; since groff 1.02 or
+ earlier (June 1991), the request has not actually worked this
+ way. Instead, '.ps 0' sets the point size to 1 basic unit
+ {though output drivers may clamp this to a higher value}. This
+ behavior is consistent with AT&T troff, Hierloom Doctools troff
+ and, per Ingo Schwarze, Plan 9 troff. (It is, however, not
+ consistent with neatroff.)
+
+ * doc/groff.texi (Changing Type Sizes): Stop claiming that '.ps
+ 0' works like '\s0'. Note that the resulting (computed) point
+ size, not the argument, is clamped. Note that it is
+ non-positive, not negative, point sizes that are clamped to 1u.
+ Add (forward) cross-reference to section where \n[.ps] is
+ defined since it is mentioned here. Move explanation of special
+ handling of zero argument to \s escape description.
+
+ * man/groff.7.man (Request short reference): Explain .ps N
+ independently of \s. Note clamping behavior.
+

+ block.

+
+2020-04-04 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
+
+ * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (read_size): Move special-case
+ interpretation of the '\sN' form of point-size escapes when 'N'
+ is 1, 2, or 3 to compatibility mode (groff -C) only, and throw
+ error diagnostic with suggestion for remedy if encountered.
+
+ Traditionally, '\s36A' is interpreted as "set point size to 36,
+ then emit 'A'". However, only values in the range 10-39 are
+ handled specially; '\s40A' is interpreted as a four-point "0A".
+ This is unlike anything else in *roff grammar; see \*, \$, \f,
+ \F, \g, \k, \m, \M, \n, \V, \Y, and \z.
+
+ To anticipate objections: Why not throw only a warning? Because
+ there isn't a warning category for supported but ambiguous
+ syntax (this behavior of AT&T troff dates back to the mid-1970s
+ but was not documented in the Troff User's Manual until 1992).
+ Why not throw the error outside of compatibility mode too?
+ Because outside of compatibility mode we (now) have an
+ unambiguous parse.
+
+ Background: The Graphic Systems C/A/T phototypesetter (the
+ original device target for AT&T troff) only supported a few
+ discrete point sizes in the range 6..36, so Ossanna
+ special-cased the parser to do what the user must have meant.
+ Kernighan warned of this in the 1992 revision of CSTR #54
+ {§2.3}, and more recently, McIlroy referred to it as a "living
+ fossil".

+ Accept any number of arguments for .Dd in the groff_mdoc(7)
+ macros.
+
+ * tmac/doc-common-u: The .Dd macro behaved in a weird way:
+ Without arguments, it printed the string "Epoch".
+ With one, two, four, or more arguments, it ignored all arguments
+ and used the current date instead.
+ Only for exactly three arguments, it printed the arguments.
+ None of this made sense. Giving the date as "Epoch" is
+ absurd, and printing the current date is just misleading:
+ why should a document be considered up-to-date when the author
+ did not even bother to state the date of the last change?
+ Admittedly, the behaviour for 0 and 4 or more arguments
+ already appeared 4.3BSD-Reno, and the behaviour for 2 or 3
+ arguments in 4.4BSD. But it was already wrong even in those
+ days: several manual pages in 4.4BSD gave .Dd a single, quoted
+ argument, e.g. .Dd "June 9, 1993": cap_mkdb(1), id(1), sed(1),
+ err(3), getcap(3), sysctl(3), amd(8), disklabel(8), and others.
+ Consequently, simply print all the arguments, no matter how
+ many there are.

+
+ Repair .AT and .UC in the groff_man(7) macros.
+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac: Setting user-defined strings in a macro that
+ will later be called indirectly from page location traps is
+ excessively complicated. Besides, the implementation doesn't
+ work: when the trap is finally sprung, the defaults from the
+ an-init macro clobber what the author specified with .AT or .UC.
+ Instead, all that is needed is setting the strings for the
+ header before triggering the page break, such that they appear
+ right away, while setting the strings for the footer after the
+ page break, such that they don't appear on the previous page.
+
+ This bug was found by Jonathan Gray <jsg@openbsd.org> while he
+ looked at 4.xBSD manual pages.

+
+ * tmac/tests/an-old_CS_register_on.sh: Tweak flags; all the

+ "-Tutf8". (This is so that output is easy to grep from a shell
+ script.) Bring this test into line. Does not regress anything.

+ Certain pdfmark destination names caused gropdf to fail.

+
+ Use a vertical spacing of 1v between paragraphs in man page
+ examples. This looks better (on typesetter devices like
+ PostScript and PDF) with the Courier font family also used in
+ examples. Typewriter devices (like the terminal) already used
+ an inter-paragraph spacing of 1v.
+
+ * tmac/an-ext.tmac (EX): Save the value of the PD number

+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac: Move test for definitions of CS and CT

+
+ The an (man) macro package supports new CS and CT number
+ registers to control rendering of man page section headings and
+ titles, respectively, in full capitals. These default off (with
+ no visible effect on pages which already fully capitalize these
+ strings in man page sources). The rationale is to encourage man
+ page authors to preserve case distinction information in (or
+ restore it to) their titles and section headings, while giving
+ users (including system administrators, distributors,
+ integrators, and maintainers of man(1) implementations) a way to
+ view the rendered page elements in full capitals if desired.
+
+ * tmac/an-old.tmac (TH/an-init): If number register CT is
+ defined and nonzero, call .stringup on \*[an-title].
+ (SH): Store macro argument list to \*[an-section-heading]. If
+ number register CS is defined and nonzero, call .stringup on it.
+ * tmac/groff_man.7.man (OPTIONS): Document the CS and CT number
+ registers.
+ * tmac/tests/an-old_CS_register_off.sh:
+ * tmac/tests/an-old_CS_register_on.sh:

+
+ Add regression test to check behavior of case transformation
+ request on a string containing a Unicode character escape.
+ Right now, this is not supported, so it is an XFAIL test in the

+
+ devlatin1: Map \(oq to ' on output.
+
+ * font/devlatin1/R.proto: Render the output glyph \[oq]
+ {opening quote} as 0x27 (apostrophe) instead of 0x60 (grave
+ accent). A grave accent is just flat wrong for the Latin-1
+ character set, a.k.a. ISO 8859-1. The defining document ECMA-94
+ {June 1986} is freely available for perusal. The ECMA-94 Latin
+ character sets do not define any glyphs for directional
+ {"typographer's"} quotation marks, but the apostrophe is
+ depicted as a neutral (vertical) glyph, whereas the grave accent
+ 0x60 and acute accent 0xB4 are mirror-symmetric diacritical
+ marks.
+
+ Note that this change has no effect on _input_ conventions for
+ roff source documents. You can still get directional single
+ quotes on UTF-8, PostScript, PDF, and other output devices
+ supporting them by typing sequences like `this' in the input
+ {character remapping with ".char" requests and similar
+ notwithstanding}.
+
+ Patch and idea from Ingo Schwarze, who originally proposed it
+ for ASCII as well, and included Latin-1 for parallelism.
+ The groff developers could reach no consensus about the wisdom
+ of such a change for ASCII (which was designed to support
+ ambiguity for some code points, requiring the development of
+ supplementary interpretation conventions between parties).
+ ECMA-94/ISO-8859 is more strongly prescriptive.
+
+ See https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55616 and the groff mailing
+ list archives for 31 January to 23 February 2019 at
+ https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff for lengthy discussion.
+
+ * src/roff/groff/tests/on-latin1-device-oq-is-0x27.sh: Check for
+ correct output glyph.

+ * src/roff/groff/groff.am: Add test.
+
+2019-06-28 G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

+2019-01-12 Ingo Schwarze <schwarze@openbsd.org>
+
+ Correctly handle groff_mdoc(7) .Lk arguments starting with a
+ dot.
+
+ * tmac/doc.tmac-u: Each argument to the .Lk macro is printed
+ on its own roff input line. If it happens to start with a dot
+ or apostroph, it was misinterpreted as a request or macro.
+ Force it to be treated as text by adding "\&" in front of it.
+
+2018-12-31 Ingo Schwarze <schwarze@openbsd.org>
+
+ * man/groff_diff.7.man: remove two stray .RE macros
