All releases of doclifter


Release Notes: An improvement was made for lynxprep handling.


Release Notes: This release cleans up glitches revealed by pychecker. It fixes buggy interpretation of the ms .AI macro. It maps the TBL "box" attribute to Docbook frame="border".


Release Notes: The groff \m color extension is now handled. Manpages generated by reStructeredText are dealt with gracefully. Groff-style \F font escapes are coped with better. A partial interpretation of troff \h was added.


Release Notes: eqn markup is now handled if the eqn -TMathml switch produces results. A -w option was added for strict portability checking. All troff glyphs are now mapped - bracket-pile characters, yogh, hooked-o, and underdot were added. You are now warned of sequences that look like glyphs but can't be mapped. Table handling for mdoc pages has been much improved. Tests for requests that can't be turned into structures are stricter.


Release Notes: A bug in db2man.xsl was worked around. Markus Hoenicka's requested behavior for multiple-file conversions was implemented. Translation of groff extended .cc and .c2 requests was implemented. The .TA macro that occurs duplicatively with .ta in X.org manual pages is now ignored. The program can cope with unresolved .Sx refererences in mdoc. .Ex and .Ee are handled. The X consortium macro preamble is now handled better. .RS/.RE is now fully handled, with no more spurious warnings.


Release Notes: Interrupt handlers were refactored so that manlifter can be aborted with a single ^C. As a result, exit values 4 and 5 were swapped. In manlifter the result file is no longer removed unless running in batch mode. This release lifts 96% of the 11121 pages in a full Fedora Core 3 install.


Release Notes: manlifter was added to the distribution. doclifter no longer strips off file extensions before appending .xml. Major improvements were made in the parsing of displays, and C function prototypes are now recognized in them.


Release Notes: The manual date now goes in refentryinfo. Correct parsing of multi-command synopses has been restored.


Release Notes: Handling of the mdoc .Brq macro was implemented. Code no longer chokes on multiple Synopsis headers.
