See file COPYING, for copying permissions, +and warranty disclaimer. + +This is a preview release of a proposed pdfmark.tmac macro package, +for use with GNU troff (groff). It is not yet complete, and should +be considered as an alpha release; there are a few problems to be +resolved (see file PROBLEMS). + +Partial documentation is provided, in groff-ms format. To convert +this to PDF format, you will require a working groff installation, +a working ghostscript installation, with the gs command in your PATH, +and a GNU-compatible make. The tarball should be unpacked in the +top directory of your groff source tree, then: + + cd <groff-current>/contrib/pdfmark + make pdfmark + +where <groff-current> is the top directory of your current groff +source tree. + +Included in this package, are: + + pdfmark.tmac -- the core pdfmark macro set + spdf.tmac -- a rudimentary set of bindings for ms macros + pdfmark.ms -- preliminary documentation + cover.ms -- a template for the documentation cover sheet + gnu.eps -- the groff logo, copied from the groff distribution + Makefile -- makefile, for formatting the documentation + README -- this file + PROBLEMS -- a list of known problems + TODO -- a list of planned features, not yet implemented + +To make the pdfmark macros generally usable, copy pdfmark.tmac to the +'site-tmac' directory appropriate to your groff installation; (ms users +may also wish to copy spdf.tmac). The macros may then be accessed, by +including the '-mpdfmark' option on the groff command line; (for ms +users, '-mspdf' is equivalent to '-ms -mpdfmark', with some extra +macros 'thrown in'). + +Comments, and bug reports are welcomed. Please post to the groff +mailing list, groff@gnu.org; (you must be subscribed to this list to +post mails). To subscribe, visit + + http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff |
