Gaius,


here my report on the usual test of man.1 :-)


As usual, I've used the command line

  zcat /usr/man/man1/man.1.gz | groff -Thtml -man -t > man.html

.) Images are called

     grohtml-x-xxxxx.png

   But I've suggested

     man-1.png, man-2.png etc.

   Something unexpectedly has happened here...

.) There is still the `-w, --where, --location' link (at the top of
   man.html) which shouldn't be there.

.) The word `on-line' will be correctly translated to `on­line',
   but `pre-defined' appears as `pre­ line' (note the space
   character after the soft hyphen).  Something in the code makes
   problems here...

   (IIRC, I've sent you this man.1 file a few weeks ago).

.) The formatting of the paragraph after the first table is completely
   wrong.  It appears that the first few words are set in two columns;
   additionally, the indentation is incorrect.

.) Similarly, the description of `-l' in the OPTIONS section is
   idented incorrectly.  Wrong indentations happen still quite
   frequently.

.) In the description of the `-D' option, there is a blank line in the
   middle of a paragraph.



     Werner
