Hello alls,

For my last mail about Utmac, it appears that all I wanted to say
can be summarized in a few lines:

  - Utmac comes with two files – u-en and u-fr – which are used
    to localize strings and typographic details.
  - Utmac populates the internal pdf table of contents, and
    creates internal links everywhere that makes sense.
  - Thanks to nroff, Utmac documents can also be exported to
    markdown, plain text, and man formats.

That makes a lot of features, much more than I use on a daily
life.  Yet, I needed each of them at least once, and it is when I
realized the work I had done to fulfill my needs that I thought
about publishing it. The publication itself forced me to organize
things and write documentation, which is great. It is very
unlikely people use Utmac as is, but I believe its existence
makes sense nonetheless as a proof of concept: Troff can fulfill
21th century needs.

Kind Regards,
Pierre-Jean.
