Follow-up Comment #2, bug #64602 (project groff):
[comment #1 comment #1:] > The only output I see in the ps-file is "foobar". > > How is the code supposed to alter the output? > > Comments to explain the code are missing. Comment #0 was written mainly as a note to myself because I have repeatedly wondered whether the `fl` request does anything at all in GNU _troff_. I filed this because it does. I don't have an answer to your question yet. Long story short, I shall play an old notorious card. /* You are not expected to understand this. */ And [https://9p.io/who/dmr/odd.html like Ritchie], at the time of writing, I don't understand it either. That's the bug. `fl`'s behavior needs to be understood by _groff_ developers and documented so that users can understand it too. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?64602> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
