Hi everyone, I'd like to hear your opinion on mdoc(7). I've already started converting the sbase manpages to the mdoc language. As an example compare the converted grep[0] to the older grep[1].
The mandoc(1) tool also has the ability to convert from mdoc(7) to man(7) by doing mandoc -Tman grep.1. I found this paper[2] to be a very good introduction to the mdoc language and the implementation of mandoc(1) on OpenBSD. Of course mdoc has been around for 2 decades or so I think it makes formatting more intuitive, simpler and flexible. I am planning to convert the st manpage to mdoc as a first step. Any objections or thoughts?
