Logged In: YES user_id=79902 OK, should be fixed now. (Wow, this code is crufty...) mistachkin added on 2004-07-06 16:44:20: File Added - 93009: bug983146.diff Logged In: YES user_id=113501 Ok, this patch fixes both remaining problems to the best of my ability and knowledge. Please review and commit to HEAD (and maybe 8.4?) when satisfied. mistachkin added on 2004-07-06 16:43:19: File Deleted - 93007: mistachkin added on 2004-07-06 16:02:02: File Added - 93007: bug983146.diff mistachkin added on 2004-07-06 15:39:11: File Deleted - 93006: mistachkin added on 2004-07-06 15:36:23: File Added - 93006: bug983146.diff mistachkin added on 2004-07-06 13:02:37: Logged In: YES user_id=113501 Unless I'm reading it wrong, the man2html tools don't support the dynamic width calculation either (see setTabs in "tools/man2html2.tcl"). mistachkin added on 2004-07-01 15:43:42: Logged In: YES user_id=113501 It appears that the "\(bu" construct is handled, but not when it appears after an ".IP" ? The "bad distance" stems from the fact that getTwips has no capability to dynamically calculate the width of a string (it currently knows nothing about "\w"). mistachkin added on 2004-07-01 15:23:28: Logged In: YES

bind.n
The "Unknown sequence: \(" error and "bad distance" errors
come from the formattedText and getTwips procs
in "tools/man2help2.tcl".
dkf added on 2004-07-01 15:10:48: Logged In: YES user_id=79902 Thanks for reporting these. Fixed in HEAD. BTW, the faults you reported for the bind manpage are not faults in the manpage formatting. They're faults in the software that you are using to analyse the manpage. In all *roff versions I can find documented, \(bu is expanded to the current system bullet character (which in turn depends on all sorts of factors) and \w'...'u is a sequence for measuring some text instead of hard-coding a (probably wrong) width. :^) | |||
