Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |MOVED --- Comment #9 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> --- podlators 2.1.0 (2008-06-01) Add a new utf8 option to Pod::Man. If set, do not convert non-ASCII characters to *roff escapes or X, and instead output literal UTF-8 characters. Add a new --utf8 option to pod2man. [Pod::Man] Match text between \f(CW and \fP or \fR in headings non-greedily to get the fonts right with multiple C<> formatting codes. [Pod::Man] Protect .Sh text against leading *roff control characters since some *roff implementations apparently "look through" font escapes at the beginning of lines. [Pod::Man] Escape backslashes separately from processing non-ASCII characters and do that, dash escaping, and underscore adjustment before processing non-ASCII characters. Otherwise, we escape the hyphen in eth characters. This was a bug in pod2man which was fixed in 2008 I think. Anyways I can't reproduce the original bug with the even the original .texi code back in which is why I am suspecting it was a pod2man issue.
