- xx-xx-2011: version 1.12.1
- </P>
- <P>
- 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 and in line with other manpage systems. A <A HREF="whatis.1.html">whatis</A> implementation is now
- handled as an <A HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> mode.

- </P>
- <P>
- This version features a new, work-in-progress <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A> output mode: -<B>Tman</B>. This mode
- allows a system maintainer to distribute <A HREF="man.7.html">man</A> media for older systems that may not natively
- support <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc</A>, such as old Solaris systems.
- The -<B>Ofragment</B> option was added to <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc</A>'s -<B>Thtml</B> and -<B>Txhtml</B> modes.
- </P>
- <P>
- While adding features, an <A HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> utility has been merged from the mandoc-tools sandbox.
- This interfaces with <A HREF="mandocdb.8.html">mandocdb</A> for semantic search of manual content. <A
- HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> is different from the traditional <B>apropos</B> primarily in allowing keyword search
- (such as for functions, utilities, etc.) and regular expressions.
- Note that the calling syntax for <B>apropos</B> is likely to change as it settles down.
