This file lists the most important changes in the mdocml.bsd.lv distribution.
-Changes in version 1.12.2, released on Oktober 1, 2013
+Changes in version 1.12.3, released on December 31, 2013
+
+ * In the mdoc(7) SYNOPSIS, line breaks and hanging indentation
+ now work correctly for .Fo/.Fa/.Fc and .Fn blocks.
+ Thanks to Franco Fichtner for doing part of the work.
+ * The mdoc(7) .Bk macro got some addititonal bugfixes.
+ * In mdoc(7) macro arguments, double quotes can now be quoted
+ by doubling them, just like in man(7).
+ Thanks to Tsugutomo ENAMI for the patch.
+ * At the end of man(7) macro lines, end-of-sentence spacing
+ now works. Thanks to Franco Fichtner for the patch.
+ * For backward compatibility, the man(7) parser now supports the
+ man-ext .UR/.UE (uniform resource identifier) block macros.
+ * The man(7) parser now handles closing blocks that are not open
+ more gracefully.
+ * The man(7) parser now ignores blank lines right after .SH and .SS.
+ * In the man(7) formatter, reset indentation when leaving a block,
+ not just when entering the next one.
+ * The roff(7) .nr request now supports incrementing and decrementing
+ number registers and stops parsing the number right before the
+ first non-digit character.
+ * 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)
+ and .hw (hyphenation points) requests and the \d and \u escape
+ sequences.
+ * The roff(7) manual got a new ESCAPE SEQUENCE REFERENCE.
+
+Changes in version 1.12.2, released on Oktober 5, 2013
* The mdoc(7) to man(7) converter, to be called as mandoc -Tman,
is now fully functional.
* For mandoc developers, we now provide a tbl(3) library manual and
gmdiff, a very small, very simplistic groff-versus-mandoc output
comparison tool.
+ * Provide this NEWS file.
Changes in version 1.12.1, released on March 23, 2012
* The earlier libroff, libmdoc, and libman soup have been merged into
a single library, libmandoc, which manages all aspects of parsing
real manuals, from line-handling to tbl(7) parsing.
- * Beyond this structural change, initial eqn(7) functionality is in
- place. For the time being, this is limited to the recognition of
- equation blocks; future version of mdocml will expand upon this
- framework.
* As usual, many general fixes and improvements have also occurred.
In particular, a great deal of redundancy and superfluous code has
been removed with the merging of the backend libraries.
+ * see also the changes in 1.10.10

Changes in version 1.10.8, released on December 24, 2010
- * Significant improvements merged from OpenBSD downstream, including

- - in-line implementation of troff's soelim(1),
- - broken-block handling,
- - overhauled error classifications, and
- - cleaned up handling of error conditions.
- * Also overhauled the -Thtml and -Txhtml output modes. They now display
+ * Overhauled the -Thtml and -Txhtml output modes. They now display
readable output in arbitrary browsers, including text-based ones like
lynx(1). See HTML and XHTML manuals in the DOCUMENTATION section
for examples. Attention: available style-sheet classes have been
considerably changed! See the example.style.css file for details.
Lastly, libmdoc and libman have been cleaned up and reduced in size
and complexity.
+ * see also the changes in 1.10.7
