Groff Bug Report
GROFF VERSION: 1.22.2
'current-groff' from 12th October 2013
MACHINE: laptop i586
OS: Linux 3.2.46-1-rt67-1 (Debian)
COMPILER: gcc (Debian 4.7.2-5) 4.7.2
INPUT FILES:
.../groff-current/contrib/mom/groff_mom.man
COMMAND LINE:
groff -ww -b -mandoc -z <input file>
DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:
Output:
groff:<standard input>:85: backtrace: while loop
groff:<standard input>:87: backtrace: macro `FONT'
groff:<standard input>:302: warning: missing closing delimiter
[ and more lines of this]
groff:<standard input>:3074: a space character is not allowed in an escape name
groff:<standard input>:3078: warning: macro `TAB' not defined
groff:<standard input>:3256: warning: macro `TN' not defined
SUGGESTED FIX [optional]:
Changes (besides warning):
Mentioned man pages are to be shown in boldface, see man-pages(7)
String "Ellipsis" had four full stops instead of three
String 'Ellipsis' used instead of '.\|.\|.'
Right single quote (\[aq]) used instead of acute (\[aa]), an accent (a
diacritic)
- changed to \- if it is a part of an option
Word 'extrended' changed to 'extended'
Space at the end of lines removed
The groff character for a right single quotation mark (\[cq]) used
instead of an UTF-8 code (u2019)
A full stop, that is a part of a string, protected with \& at the end
(start) of it.
" used in examples instead of \[rq] as it is used to quote arguments
The string '2-or' changed to '2- or'
The number of word spaces conserved in examples by using "
Spaces conserved when using an IR macro
Groff characters \[lq] and \[rq] used instead of UTF-8 code (u201c
and u201d) for left|right double quotations mark
\(12 used instead of '-1/2' (example 8\(12 instead of 8-1/2)
\ used instead of a - if it means minus
