commit 954230c53b7bb79d2962510c3d00bb55e059e243
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Thu Sep 17 18:22:57 2026 -0500
[man,mdoc]: Break line before any table region.
* tmac/an.tmac (TS): Unconditionally break the line.
* tmac/doc.tmac (TS): New macro unconditionally breaks the line.
Handle erroneous input better: even if a tbl(1) table region is
malformed and renders nothing, the user (likely) still expects a line
break where the table _would_ have been.
See <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?68696>. Thanks to Ingo Schwarze for
the discussion.
