Dear groff users and developers, I normally use OpenBSD in my desktop, which still comes with groff 1.22.4. Today I booted an old laptop with Debian testing (Devuan to be more precise) and, after updating it, I could finally test groff 1.23.
Lately, as I mentioned in this same list months ago, instead of the conventional hyphenation method (my documents are in UTF-8 Spanish), I've been using an application I wrote myself to generate a file with entries like this: .hw a-ba-co .hw ár-bol .hw ca-ba-ña [...] Also UTF-8 encoded. I save those entries to a file called "hyphen.tr" and I source it from my groff document: .mso hyphen.tr 1.23 output (under Debian) seems to be identical to 1.22 (under OpenBSD), I see no issue in the PDF, both have the same words broken in the same syllables, that's why I don't understand why 1.23 throws me hundreds of lines of error like the following: troff:/home/morlock/Documents/Roquesor/Groff/tmac/hyphen.tr:8777: error: expected ordinary or special character, got an escaped '%' I took a look to the hyphen.tr file and didn't find no '%' character. Someone have any idea what happens here? -- Walter
