[Not currently handled.] +# +# Troff input spells them as \-, -, \[en], \[em] respectively. (See the +# groff_char.7 man page for a full list of such punctuation characters.) If +# you run `man' with your LC_CTYPE indicating a rich character set like unicode +# (UTF-8 encoding), then it uses different output characters for each of the +# above. +# +# In particular, if your man page source has plain `-' when giving an example +# of a flag or command or other program input, then users won't be able to use +# mouse copy&paste from the formatted man page. + +# This script is something of a hack: it is only big enough to handle a few man +# pages of interest (produced by pod2man). You should manually check the +# changes it makes. + +# Approach: we handle each line a word at a time, and typically make the same +# hyphen-vs-ASCII decision throughout the word. We're a bit haphazard about +# word-splitting, but it's hard to find an example of where we'd be hurt by +# that, and by luck we would do the right thing for many gcc options like +# `-fconstant-string-class=\fICLASS-NAME\fR' (where CLASS-NAME should use a +# hyphen and the others should be ASCII hyphen-minus). +# +# Perl's /e (execute) flag for substitutions does just what we want +# for preserving non-word bits while transforming "words". +# +# We don't currently handle special things like `apt-get' that look like +# hyphenated english words but are actually program names. In general the +# problem is AI complete, e.g. `apt-gettable' could be either hyphen (gettable +# by apt) or ASCII hyphen-minus (able to be processed by the `apt-get' +# program). +# +# We don't currently take hints from font choice. (E.g. text in CR font should +# probably use ASCII hyphen-minus.) +# +# We currently only handle a couple troff requests and escapes (see groff.7). + +sub frob ($); + +my $yearRE = qr/(?:19[6-9]|20[013])[0-9]/; + +sub frob ($) { + my ($x) = @_; + + # Consider splitting into two words. + if ($x =~ m{\A(.*?)(\\(?:[&/,~:d]|f[BRI]|s-?[0-9]+))(.*)\z}) { + my ($before, $s, $after) = ($1, $2, $3); + return frob($before) . $s . frob($after); + } + + if ($x =~ m{\A(.*?)(\.+)\z}) { + my $d = $2; + return frob($1) . $d; + } + + # `32-bit', `5-page'. + if ($x =~ m{\A[0-9]+-[a-z]+\z}) { + return $x; + } + + # Year range: `(C) 1998-2003'. + if ($x =~ m{\A$yearRE\\?-$yearRE\z}) { + $x =~ s{\\?-}{\\[en]}; + return $x; + } + + # ISO date. + if ($x =~ m{\A$yearRE-[01][0-9]-[0-3][0-9]\z}) { + return $x; + } + + # Things likely to be computer input. + if ($x =~ m{[0-9]|\.[a-zA-Z]|\A(?:[-/.]|\\-|\[.*\]\z)}) { + $x =~ s/\\?-/\\-/g; + return $x; + } + + $x =~ s/\\?-/-/g; + return $x; +} + +while(<>) { + if ($_ eq '.tr \(*W-|\(bv\*(Tr' .
