[bug #62814] [PATCH] consolidate or distinguish tty.tmac and tty-char.tmac

[Dave]

Update of bug #62814 (project groff):

 Summary: consolidate or distinguish tty.tmac and
tty-char.tmac => [PATCH] consolidate or distinguish tty.tmac and tty-char.tmac

___

Follow-up Comment #7:

Attached is a patch which implements the fix proposed in comment #6.

I tweaked some of Ingo's wording from comment #1 to include in comments at the
top of tty-char.tmac.  (Some of the points he covered were already in comments
there.)

I did not include Ingo's instructions from comment #5 concerning how to
locally edit system tmac files if one lacks root access.  As he points out,
this is documented elsewhere, but if developers think it's worth providing a
pointer to that information in a place users might need it as a courtesy, I'll
modify the patch.

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #64421 (project groff):

Nothing yet.  The om.tmac that ships with Arch's groff 1.23 isn't the culprit.
 We're going to have to wait on this to see if it crops up elsewhere.

Any word on this?  I can't reproduce it either.

[bug #61450] Add warning for extraneous arguments to requests

[Dave]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #61450 (project groff):

In a similar case, the fix for bug #64438 chose to ignore extraneous arguments
to an -ms macro.  (While the use case cited in comment 4 there doesn't apply
to troff requests, it is a case of deliberately continuing the historical
leniency in parameter validation.)

[bug #64438] [ms] validation of `PS` macro arguments too strict

[Deri James]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #64438 (project groff):

One use for the extra parameters may be for captioning, i.e.

.PS "An example"

The user could then use .am PS to add captioning code to the picture and a pdf
bookmark. I'm in favour of silently ignoring excess parameters.
