- <SPAN CLASS="nm">mdocml</SPAN> is a suite of tools compiling <Q>-mdoc</Q>, the roff macro package
- of choice for BSD manual pages, and <Q>-man</Q>, the predominant historical package for UNIX
- manuals. The mission of <SPAN CLASS="nm">mdocml</SPAN> is to deprecate <A
- HREF="http://www.gnu.org/software/groff/" CLASS="external">groff</A>, the GNU roff implementation, for
- displaying -mdoc pages whilst providing token support for -man.
- </P>
-
- <P>
- Why? groff amounts to over 5 MB of source code, most of which is C++ and all of which is GPL. It runs
- slowly, produces uncertain output, and varies in operation from system to system. mdocml strives to fix
- this (respectively small, C, ISC-licensed, fast and regular).
- </P>
-
- <P>
- The core of <SPAN CLASS="nm">mdocml</SPAN> is composed of the <A HREF="mdoc.3.html">libmdoc</A>, <A
- HREF="man.3.html">libman</A>, and <A HREF="roff.3.html">libroff</A> validating compiler libraries. All
- are simple, fast libraries operating on memory buffers, so they may be used for a variety of front-ends
- (terminal-based, CGI and so on). The front-end is <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A>, which formats
- manuals for display.

- CLASS="flag">-Owidth=width</SPAN> output option has been added to <SPAN
- CLASS="flag">-Tascii</SPAN> (see <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A>). Lastly, initial
- PostScript output has been added with the <SPAN CLASS="flag">-Tps</SPAN> option to <A

+ Significant work on <A HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> and <A HREF="mandocdb.8.html">mandocdb</A>. These tools are
+ now much more robust.
+ A <A HREF="whatis.1.html">whatis</A> implementation is now handled as an <A HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> mode.
+ These tools are also able to minimally handle pre-formatted pages, that is, those already formatted by another utility
+ such as GNU troff.

+ <P>
+ The <A HREF="man.cgi.7.html">man.cgi</A> script is also now available for wider testing. It interfaces with <A
+ HREF="mandocdb.8.html">mandocdb</A> manuals cached by <A HREF="catman.8.html">catman</A>. HTML output is generated
+ on-the-fly by <A HREF="mandoc.3.html">libmandoc</A> or internal methods to convert pre-formatted pages.
