Subject: Groff difference: punctuation following Lk
Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2017 03:29:52 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <80788.1491038992@cathet.us> (raw)
Hi,
Consider the following mdoc(7) source:
.Lk https://www.example.com/ .
In mandoc(1), this gets rendered as:
https://www.example.com/.
Doing the same with groff-1.22.3's nroff(1) yields:
.: https://www.example.com/
It (unexpectedly, to me at least) treats the period as the text of the
link, rather than punctuation that trails the macro.
I guess mandoc's behavior is wrong, even though it makes more sense...
