+Changes in version 1.14.1, released on February 21, 2017
--- MAJOR NEW FEATURES ---
* apropos(1): Reimplement complete semantic search functionality
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),
* 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.
* mdoc(7): Always do text production in the validator, never in the
formatters. Cleaner, simpler, shorter, helps NetBSD apropos(1)
and also makes -Ttree output more useful.
- * mdoc(7), man(7): Show metadata in -Ttree output.
+ * -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
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
+ * 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.
* 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.
- * Autodetect whether PATH_MAX is defined.
- * Autodetect if nanosleep(3) needs -lrt.
- * Put compiler arguments that may contain -l at the end.
+ * ./configure: Autodetect whether PATH_MAX and O_DIRECTORY are defined.
+ * ./configure: Autodetect if nanosleep(3) needs -lrt.
+ * ./configure: Provide an ${LN} configuration variable.
+ * ./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.
easier to use and reducing the amount of code by a few hundred lines.
