Update of bug #67252 (group groff): Status: Need Info => Rejected Assigned to: None => gbranden Summary: groff_char.7: some tables too wide in ascii or latin1 output => groff_char(7): some tables too wide on 'ascii' or 'latin1' output devices
_______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #17: There's been no feedback from Bjarni despite his activity in other _groff_ tickets, so I conclude that we're not going to hear from him. [comment #13 comment #13:] >>> while some tty-char.tmac fallbacks are useful outside >>> terminal output, the current infrastructure effectively >>> supports them only when running nroff. >> >> Join me in welcoming bug #67356 to the world. > > Excellent. The proposal there is (I paraphrase) "let users of any output > driver opt in to semantic fallbacks". > > Separate issue #1: There may be some fallbacks in "tty-char.tmac" that should > remain confined to the _grotty_ output driver's supporting macro file. > That's essentially bug #62814. > > Separate issue #2: We should warn (or be configurably able to) when unfilled > lines are overset. That's bug #66977. > > Separate issue #3: _groff_char_(7) should be revised to present glyph tables > that don't overset when semantic fallbacks are used. If that's all that > remains of this ticket, I am inclined to close it as "Rejected". > > Is the foregoing a fair redrawing of the multifarious issues arising from > comment #0? Dave and I think so. Closing this ticket as "Rejected".
