Identifying cross references in man(7) code is hard. Many different forms are used in practice for writing such references, so having mandoc -T lint inspect them would cause significant effort. We don't even generate <a href> elements from cross-references in man(7) documents for HTML output yet, even though that would no doubt be useful. Also, man(7) pages are always legacy documents, so checking them is low-priority in the first place. > and a whole host of other things. Indeed, though again, checks are intentionally *much* stricter for mdoc(7) input than for man(7) input, also regarding other things. Yours, Ingo
