  10 .Sh DESCRIPTION
  11 In an old version of
  12 .Xr mandoc 1 ,
  13 .Xr mdoc 7
  14 file format autodetection failed when the end of an
  15 .Ic if
  16 block stood on its own line before the initial
  17 .Xr mdoc 7
  18 .Ic Dd
  19 macro.
  20 The file was mishandled as
  21 .Xr man 7
  22 and parsing failed with unknown macro errors.
  23 .Pp
  24 If the present document looks like a proper
  25 .Xr mdoc 7
  26 document and the following display reads
  27 .Dq mytext ,
  28 then the problem did not come back:
  29 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
  30 \*[mystring]
