However, in /usr/share/tmac, there is only tmac.m instead of tmac.mm. While it is slightly more convenient to invoke groff -mm, it would be more consistent to move tmac.m to tmac.mm so that groff will honor mm macros in the manner documented. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: mv /usr/share/tmac/m.tmac /usr/share/tmac/mm.tmac or amend groff_mm(7) possibly kludge groff to honor -mm as -mmm in case there is some legacy system out there assuming groff -mm as correct. thanks! dan >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
