+This file lists the most important changes in the mandoc.bsd.lv distribution.
+
+Changes in version 1.14.6, released on XXX XXX, 2019
+
+ --- MAJOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * man(1) -T ascii: slowly start implementing tagging support for man(7)
+ pages: tag alphabetic arguments of .IP, .TP, and .TQ macros
+ * -T html: wrap text and phrasing elements in paragraphs unless
+ already contained in flow containers; never put them directly
+ into sections. This helps to format paragraphs with the CSS
+ class selector .Pp.
+ --- MINOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * roff(7): implement the .break request (break out of a .while loop)
+ * if messages are shown and output is printed without a pager,
+ display a heads-up on stderr at the end because otherwise, users
+ may easily miss the messages
+ * mandoc.css: support prefers-color-scheme: dark
+ --- RELIABILITY BUGFIXES ---
+ * man(1): do not segfault if /tmp/ is not writeable
+ * tbl(7): fix a crash when the last column is only reached by spans
+ * tbl(7) -T ascii: fix a NULL pointer access on empty data cells
+ * tbl(7) -T ascii: fix a NULL pointer access on a line next to a short row
+ * -T html: fix an assertion failure caused by .ft in rare situations
+ * roff(7): fix a rare case of writing one byte past the end of the input buffer
+ --- MINOR FUNCTIONAL IMPROVEMENTS ---
+ * man(1) -h: for pages lacking a SYNOPSIS, show the NAME section
+ * man(1): when the first argument starts with a digit, optionally
+ followed by a letter, and at least one more argument follows,
+ interpret the first argument as a section name even when additional
+ characters follow after the digit and letter
+ * man(1): with a specific section requested, try harder to find
+ the best match; use this order of preference:
+ 1. The section in both the directory name and the file name matches exactly.
+ 2. The section in the file name matches exactly.
+ 3. The section in the directory name matches exactly.
+ 4. Neither of them matches exactly.
+ * man(1): if no tags were generated at all, unlink(2) the empty
+ tags file as soon the condition can be detected and do not pass
+ it to less(1)
+ * makewhatis(8): handle both dangling symlinks and .so links
+ in manual page directories more gracefully
+ * man.cgi(8): for invalid queries and for valid queries returning
+ no result, return the appropriate 40x status code rather than 200
+ * tbl(7) -T utf8: improved rendering of horizontal lines
+ * mdoc(7) -T html: format .Nd with <span> rather than <div>
+ * mdoc(7) -T lint: do not warn about $Mdocdate: October 13 2019 $ without an actual date
+ * mdoc(7) -T lint: do not complain about function types of the
+ form "ret_type (fname)(args)", but otherwise check names more strictly
+ --- MINOR BUGFIXES ---
+ * man(1): do the search for each name independently, and show the
+ results in the order of the command line argument
+ * man(1): when asking for a single manual page by name, prefer
+ file name matches over .Dt/.TH matches over first NAME matches
+ over later NAME matches, but do not change the ordering for
+ apropos(1) nor for man -a
+ * roff(7): when calling an empty macro, do not clobber existing arguments
+ * mdoc(7) .Bl -column: parse Macro in .It "word<tab>word" Ta word Macro<eol>
+ * -T html: remove some spurious line breaks, in particular inside <pre>
+ --- STRUCTURAL IMPROVEMENTS ---
+ * move some code out of the giant main() into separate functions
+ doing one well-defined task each
+ * clearly separate parser state (struct curparse) and formatter state
+ (struct outstate), don't mix them in the same struct
+ * in the HTML formatter, assert(3) that no HTML nesting violation occurs
+ * let html_close_paragraph() close any phrasing context
+ --- THANKS TO ---
+ * Marc Espie (OpenBSD) for a patch and for suggesting a feature impovement
+ * Anton Lindqvist (OpenBSD) for a patch
+ * Armin Besirovic for a contribution to mandoc.css

+
+Changes in version 1.14.4, released on August 8, 2018
+
+ --- MAJOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * In ASCII output, render mathematical symbols and greek letters
+ as transliterations conveying the characters' meanings rather
+ than trying to imitate their shape. Consequently, such characters
+ can now be used in portable manual pages. All the same, please
+ limit their use to contexts where they really matter, for example
+ when showing complicated mathematical formulae.
+ * First steps towards better support for small screens in HTML
+ output (responsive design): avoid most style= attributes, in
+ particular all hard-coded indentations and column widths, and
+ provide a better mandoc.css style sheet with a @media query,
+ using em units throughout, and avoiding redundancy in selectors.
+ * Better HTML output with some more fitting HTML elements, eliminating
+ needless class= attributes, and avoiding various HTML syntax errors
+ (element nesting, URL-fragment syntax, duplicate id= attributes).
+ --- MINOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * When a man(1) argument contains a slash, imply -l like in man-db.
+ * Use TIOCGWINSZ to reduce the default -Owidth and -Oindent during
+ interactive use on terminals narrower than 79 columns.
+ * Generated PostScript files are now more than 50% smaller.
+ * Terminal rendering of eqn(7) is improved in several respects.
+ * Simplified and nicer output from the mdoc(7) .Lk macro, formatting
+ all links in-line, even long ones.
+ * roff(7) \n+ and \n- numerical register auto-increment and -decrement
+ * roff(7) .nr optional third argument (auto-increment step size)
+ * Autodetect in ./configure whether the compiler can use -W and -static,
+ allowing to build on Solaris 10 and 11 without any configure.local.
+ --- RELIABILITY BUGFIXES ---
+ * Only activate UTF-8 output when the user really selected UTF-8,
+ not some other multibyte character encoding.
+ * Prevent excessive .ll arguments from generating infinite output.
+ * Fix out of bounds accesses to parse buffers that could happen when
+ using renamed or user defined macros after roff(7) conditionals.
+ * Avoid an assertion failure in certain .Bl -column lists.
+ * Avoid a NULL pointer access on deroff() failure after '.SS ""'.
+ * Fix a segfault that could be triggered by two invalid .Dt macros.
+ * Fix two syntax errors in generated PDF files.
+ * Properly state the page size in generated PostScript files.
+ * Close a memory leak caused by missing gzclose(3).
+ * Fix misformatting of man(7) documents lacking .SH macros
+ in PostScript and PDF output.
+ * And many minor bugfixes.
+ --- THANKS TO ---
+ * Marc Espie (OpenBSD) for implementing the size reduction of
+ PostScript files, one additional patch for code simplification,
+ and two bug reports.
+ * Theo Buehler (OpenBSD) for a bugfix patch,
+ and Theo de Raadt (OpenBSD) for checking it.
+ * John Gardner for more than a dozen suggestions regarding HTML output.
+ * Mike Williams for teaching me how to use %%DocumentMedia and
+ setpagedevice in PostScript files.
+ * Werner Lemberg (groff) for feedback on mdoc(7) language changes.

+ * Leah Neukirchen (Void Linux) for suggesting a new style message,
+ five bug reports, and release testing.
+ * Anthony Bentley (OpenBSD) for reporting multiple bugs and missing
+ features.
+ * Paul Irofti (OpenBSD) and Nate Bargmann for suggesting new features.
+ * Michael Stapelberg (Debian) for bug reports and release testing.
+ * Christian Weisgerber, Jonathan Gray, Stuart Henderson,
+ Ted Unangst (OpenBSD), Takeshi Nakayama (NetBSD),
+ Anton Lazarov, Jakub Klinkovsky, Jan Stary, Jesper Wallin,
+ Will Backmam, and Wolfgang Mueller for bug reports.
+ * Sevan Janiyan (NetBSD) for additions to lib.in.
+ * George Brown for suggesting code simplifications.
+ * David Coppa, Igor Sobrado (OpenBSD), and Alexander Kuleshov
+ for documentation improvements.
+ * Laura Morales and Raf Czlonka for questions resulting in better
+ documentation.

+
+Changes in version 1.14.3, released on August 5, 2017
+
+ --- BUG FIXES ---
+ * man(7): Do not crash with out-of-bounds read access to a constant
+ array if .sp or a blank line immediately precedes .SS or .SH.
+ * mdoc(7): Do not crash with out-of-bounds read access to a constant
+ array if .sp or a blank line precede the first .Sh macro.
+ * tbl(7): Ignore explicitly specified negative column widths rather than
+ wrapping around to huge numbers and risking memory exhaustion.
+ * man(1): No longer use names that only occur in the SYNOPSIS section.
+ Gets rid of some surprising behaviour and bogus warnings.
+ --- THANKS TO ---
+ Leah Neukirchen (Void Linux), Markus Waldeck (Debian),
+ Peter Bui (nd.edu), and Yuri Pankov (illumos) for bug reports.
+
+Changes in version 1.14.2, released on July 28, 2017
+
+ --- MAJOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * New mdoc(7) -Tmarkdown output mode.
+ * For -Thtml, implement internal hyperlinks pointing to authoritative
+ definitions of various syntax elements, similar to the ctags(1)-like
+ less(1) :t internal searching in terminal mode.
+ * Provide a superset of the functionality of the former mdoclint(1)
+ utility and a new -Wstyle message level with several new messages,
+ including validity checking of .Xr cross references.
+ * tbl(7): Implement automatic line breaking inside individual table
+ cells, and several other formatting improvements.
+ * eqn(7): Complete rewrite of the lexer, resulting in several bugfixes.
+ * Continue parser unification, in particular allowing generation
+ of syntax tree nodes on the roff(7) level, allowing implementation
+ of many additional roff requests.
+ --- REMOVED FUNCTIONALITY ---
+ * Delete the manpage(1) utility. It was never enabled in any release.
+ * Delete the -Txhtml command line option. It has been an obsolete
+ alias for the -Thtml output mode for more than two years.
+ --- MINOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * -Tlint now puts parser messages on stdout instead of stderr,
+ making commands like "man -l -Tlint *.1" useful.
+ * mdoc(7): Various .Lk formatting improvements.
+ * mdoc(7) -Thtml: Better CSS for .Bl lists.
+ * man(7): Implement the .MT/.ME block macro (mailto hyperlink).

+ * eqn(7): Much improved font selection, including recognition of
+ well-known function names, and a few other formatting improvements.
+ * eqn(7) -Thtml: Use <mn> and <mo> in addition to <mi>.
+ * roff(7): Implement the .ce (centering), .mc (margin character),
+ .rj (right justify), .ta (define tab stops), .ti (temporary indent),
+ .als (macro alias), .ec and .eo (escape character control),
+ .po (page offset), and .rn (macro rename) requests.
+ * roff(7) .am: Implement appending to mdoc(7) and man(7) macros.
+ * roff(7): implement the \h (horizontol motion), \l (horizontal
+ line drawing), and \p (break output line) escape sequences,
+ and also several additional character escape sequences.
+ * roff(7): Implement the 'd' conditional (macro or string defined).
+ * man.cgi(8) now uses pledge(2), too.
+ * regress.pl(1): simpler user interface, better summary output,
+ simpler code, and no more recursion.
+ --- THANKS TO ---
+ * Anthony Bentley (OpenBSD) for the implementation of .MT/.ME,
+ reports of many bugs and missing features, and suggestions

+
+Changes in version 1.14.1, released on February 21, 2017
+
+ --- MAJOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * apropos(1): Reimplement complete semantic search functionality
+ without the dependency on SQLite3, using only POSIX APIs.
+ This comes with a completely new mandoc.db(5) file format.
+ * man(1): Support more than one tag entry for the same search term,
+ plus some minor improvements to the less(1) :t support.
+ * -Thtml: Use real macro names for CSS classes.
+ Systematic cleanup of and many improvements to mandoc.css.
+ * -Thtml: Produce human readable HTML code by using indentation
+ and better line breaks. Improve various HTML elements,
+ and trim several useless ones.
+ * New catman(8) utility, still somewhat experimental.
+ * Now includes a portable version of the OpenBSD mandoc regression
+ suite, see regress/regress.pl.1 for details.
+ --- REMOVED FUNCTIONALITY ---
+ * Operating systems that don't provide mmap(3) are no longer supported.
+ * Drop support for manpath(1). Even if your system has manpath(1),
+ it is simpler to use MANPATH_DEFAULT in configure.local for
+ operating system defaults, man.conf(5) for machine-specific
+ modifications, and ${MANPATH}, -m, and -M for user preferences
+ than to bother with the complexity of manpath(1).
+ * makewhatis(8) -p: No longer warn about missing MLINKS since these
+ are no longer needed for anything.
+ --- MINOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * mdoc(7): Warn about invalid punctuation and content below NAME.
+ * mdoc(7): Warn about .Xr lacking the second argument (section).
+ * mdoc(7): Warn about violations of the rule "new sentence, new line".
+ * roff(7): Warn about trailing whitespace at the end of comments.
+ * mdoc(7): Improve rendering of double quotes.

+ formatters. Cleaner, simpler, shorter, helps NetBSD apropos(1)
+ and also makes -Ttree output more useful.
+ * -Ttree: Show metadata and some additional node flags.
+ New -Onoval output option to show the unvalidated tree.
+ --- RELIABILITY BUGFIXES ---
+ * man(1): Make "man -l" work with standard input from a pipe or file,
+ as long as standard output is a terminal.
+ * man(7): Fix out of bounds read access if a text node immediately
+ preceded the first .SH header.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix out of bounds read access for .Bl without a type
+ but with a width.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix out of bounds read access for .Bl -column starting
+ with a tab character instead of a child .It macro.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix syntax tree corruption leading to segfaults caused
+ by stray block end macros in nested blocks of mismatching type.
+ * man(1): Fix NULL dereference when the first of multiple pages
+ shown was preformatted.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix syntax tree corruption leading to NULL dereference
+ caused by partial implicit macros inside .Bl -column table cells.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix syntax tree corruption leading to NULL dereference
+ for macro sequences like .Bl .Bl .It Bo .El .It.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix syntax tree corruption leading to NULL dereference
+ caused by .Ta following a nested .Bl -column breaking another block.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix syntax tree corruption sometimes leading to NULL
+ dereference caused by indirectly broken .Nd or .Nm blocks.
+ * mdoc(7) -Thtml: Fix a NULL dereference for .Bl -column with 0 columns.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix NULL dereference in some specific cases of a
+ block-end macro calling another block-end macro.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix NULL dereference if the only child of the head
+ of the first .Sh was an empty in-line macro.
+ * eqn(7): Fix NULL dereference in the terminal formatter
+ for empty matrices and empty square roots.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix an assertion failure for a .Bd without a type that
+ breaks another block.
+ * mdoc(7): Fix an assertion failure that happened for some .Bl -column
+ lists containing a column width of "-4n", "-3n", or "-2n".
+ * mdoc(7): Fix an assertion failure caused by .Bl -column without .It
+ but containing eqn(7) or tbl(7) code.
+ * roff(7): Fix an assertion failure caused by \z\[u00FF] with -Tps/-Tpdf.
+ * roff(7): Fix an assertion failures caused by whitespace inside \o''
+ (overstrike) sequences.
+ * -Thtml: Fix an assertion failure caused by -Oman or -Oincludes of
+ excessive length.
+ --- PORTABILITY IMPROVEMENTS ---
+ * man(1): Do not mix stdio narrow and wide stream orientation
+ on stdout, which could cause output corruption on glibc.
+ * mandoc(1): Autodetect a suitable locale for -Tutf8 mode.
+ * ./configure: Autodetect whether PATH_MAX and O_DIRECTORY are defined.
+ * ./configure: Autodetect if nanosleep(3) needs -lrt.

+ * ./configure: Put compiler arguments that may contain -l at the end.
+ --- MINOR BUGFIXES ---
+ * mdoc(7): Fix SYNOPSIS output if the first child of .Nm is a macro.
+ * mdoc(7) -Thtml: Improve formatting of .Bl -tag with short tags.
+ * man(7) -Thtml: Preserve whitespace in .nf (nofill) mode.
+ * mandoc(1): Error out on invalid output options on the command line.
+ --- STRUCTURAL CHANGES, no functional change ---
+ * Redesign part of the mandoc_html(3) interfaces, making them much
+ easier to use and reducing the amount of code by a few hundred lines.

+ * Theo Buehler (OpenBSD) for almost twenty important bug reports,
+ most of them found by systematic afl(1) fuzzing.
+ * Benny Lofgren, David Dahlberg, and in particular Vadim Zhukov
+ for crucial help in getting .Bl -tag CSS formatting fixed.
+ * Svyatoslav Mishyn (Crux Linux) for an initial version of the
+ patch to autodetect a suitable locale for -Tutf8 mode

+ --- MINOR NEW FEATURES ---
+ * The roff(7) parser now supports the .ami (append to macro with
+ indirectly specified name), .as (append to user-defined

+ expression) and partially supports the \w (measure text width)
+ escape sequences.

+ involving indirect references.
+ * The roff(7) parser now handles some pre-defined read-only
+ number registers that occur in the pod2man(1) preamble.

+ now support the obsolete macros .En, .Es, .Fr, and .Ot.
+ * The mdoc(7) formatter non partially supports .Bd -centered.
+ * tbl(7) now handles leading and trailing vertical lines.
+ * The build system now provides fallback versions of strcasestr(3)
+ and strsep(3) for systems lacking them.
+ * The mdoc(7) manual now explains how various standards
+ supported by the .St macro are related to each other.
+ --- BUGFIXES ---
+ * In the roff(7) parser, several bugs were fixed with respect
+ to closing conditional blocks on macro lines.

+ in multiple respects.
+ * In the mdoc(7) parser, the handling of defective document
+ prologues was improved in multiple ways.

+ header, and it no longer deletes non-.% content from .Rs blocks.
+ * In the mdoc(7) parser, a crash was fixed related to weird .Sh headers.
+ * In the mdoc(7) parser, handling of .Sm with missing or invalid
+ arguments was corrected.
+ * In the mdoc(7) parser, trailing punctuation at the end of partial
+ implicit macros no longer triggers end-of-sentence spacing.

+ excessive indentation and another by excessively long .Nm arguments.
+ * In the terminal formatter, a floating point rounding bug was
+ fixed that sometimes caused an off-by-one error in indentation.
+ * In the UTF-8 formatter, rendering of accents, breakable hyphens,
+ and non-breakable spaces was corrected.
+ * In the HTML formatter, encoding of special characters was
+ corrected in multiple respects.
+ * In the mdoc(7) formatter, rendering of .Ex and .Rv was
+ improved for various edge cases.
+ * In the mdoc(7) formatter, handling of empty .Bl -inset item
+ heads was improved.

+ to same-line detection in the context of .TP and .nf macros,
+ and the indentation of .IP and .TP blocks was improved.
+ * The mandoc(3) library no longer prints to stderr.

+ * The roff(7) parser now supports the alternative escape sequence
+ syntax \C'uXXXX' for Unicode characters.
+ * The roff(7) parser now parses and ignores the .fam (font family)
