Jani was mentioning how much he loved editing troff, so I decided to dust off these patches, which as a side effect convert (some of) the man pages to pod.
As I write this, I realized that the second commit message is sort of a lie, I now use a quick and dirty perl script [1] to do the conversion. I have also updated the converted pages to take into account man page edits since April. Since this is a semi-manual process, I don't want to convert (and therefore have to update) all of the man pages at this stage. An earlier version of the series is at mid:[email protected] [1]: #!/usr/bin/perl open(POD,"groff -e -mandoc -Tascii -rHY=0 | rman -f POD|") || die; LINE: while(<POD>){ my $blank=0; while (m/^\s*$/) { $_=<POD>; $blank++; } print "\n" if ($blank); while(s/^(=head1 .*)B[<]/\1/){}; while(s/^(=head1 .*)[>]/\1/){}; s/ */ /g; print; } _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list [email protected] http://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
