Nicolas:
I pulled the latest git code and ran my regression test suite (for lack
of a better phrase) to test the groff exporter. There were no unsolvable
issues, but you might want to know that I found:
- No changes were needed to org-export.el or org-elements.el All the
tests were run with the code from git. These two files did not
cause any problems during the test. Therefore, those can be left as
they are.
- The change with the largest imapct on my code had to do with
the BEGIN_GROFF/END_GROFF pairs in which now invokes the special
block function and process the enclosed text through the plain-text
function. Originally these were passed through without the
invocation of the plain text function.
I had to remove all the text pre-processing being that it was causing
problems in the execution of GROFF macros. I do not think that
doing this will hurt (much) because of the GROFF markup syntax.
For instance:
TeX/LaTeX looks like this:
\begin{center}
Blah
\end
while GROFF looks like this.
.DS C
Blah
.DE
French quotations are not supported now because of this change, quotes are
significant in GROFF for many things and I cannot translate those
because GROFF will fail with a syntax error.
- There were some other issues found, but those were my doing :). These
were resolved and pushed into the repository.
