Hi folks,

Thanks for this great and useful tool. I did notice a bug however in mandoc when using HTML output. It seems to insert <br> tags inside <pre> sections, which causes there to be double newlines since <pre> already preserves newlines. You can see it in this example which has many code samples in it:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apple-oss-distributions/tcl/tcl-134.121.2/tcl_ext/expect/expect/expect.man | mandoc -T html >example.html
