Update of bug #60477 (project groff):
Status: In Progress => Fixed
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
Planned Release: None => 1.23.0
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
Fixed. Also attaching updated screenshot showing improved behavior, and,
since I don't have a regression test for this (because doing so would require
parsing/scraping groff -Z output or, worse, terminal output with embedded
escape sequences), a demonstrator document.

[ms]: Support .BX better in nroff mode.
* tmac/s.tmac (BX): Add alternative implementation for terminal (nroff)
devices. Store width of boxed text, adding .4m only on troff devices
(to make room for the vertical box lines). Break long input line in
troff implementation. If not in troff mode, use ISO 6429 color
escapes to render boxed text in black on white. Use the \Z escape to
match breaking semantics of macro in troff mode.
* doc/groff.texi (Highlighting in ms) <BX>:
* doc/ms.ms (Highlighting) <BX>:
* tmac/groff_ms.7.man (Usage/Highlighting) <BX>: Document it.
