Update of bug#56015 (group groff): Item Group: Incorrect behaviour => Rendering/Cosmetics Status: Need Info => Confirmed
_______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #6: Branden put this bug in Need Info status with comment #2, presumably based on his stated need to research the history of the change cited in that comment. That history was unveiled a couple months later in comment #3, and if any further info is required, it's not clear what it is. As comment #5 notes, the two ".if c" statements are useless in tty.tmac. But these long predate the comment #2-referenced commit: the first dates back to James Clark's creation of the file in [http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/groff.git/commit/?id=b04d345ed commit b04d345ed] in 1992, and the second to Werner's [http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/groff.git/commit/?id=fbd6cbb8a commit fbd6cbb8a] in Apr 2000. The comment #2-referenced commit merely wrapped these conditionals in a further test for non-UTF8 terminals, the purpose of which I think is clear from the associated email thread linked in comment #3. But this additional test is not the source of the issue Jeff Conrad is reporting; if anything, this additional test keeps that issue from being more widespread. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?56015> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
