Re: Not predefined Extended Latin character needed, interesting solution found

Hi Deri, I just attempted to follow your advice and compile groff from scratch. I downloaded 1.22.4 and ran ./configure. I am a bit confused because ./configure warns me that I do not have URW fonts, but /usr/share/fonts/urw-base35/ is definitely not empty. ./configure does not respond well when

Re: Adding macro for code listings title to the mm macros.

Hi, I must confess that I've never perceived the issue from this perspective. "Back then" (which is anything before the 2000s) I found browsing contrib directories a rewarding experience. Best regards, Oliver. On 18/05/2021 18:13, Ingo Schwarze wrote: Hi, Oliver Corff wrote on Tue, May 18,

Re: Adding macro for code listings title to the mm macros.

Hi Dave, there used to be a good tradition to collect these things in a dedicated directory aptly named contrib. Wouldn't it be a good idea to collect macros of this kind (and previous contributions to this list) in a contrib directory? Then they could be made available to everybody without caus

RE: Is decreasing top margin with mm macros broken?

35 years later and it is still there. Groff is great, much easier and more coherent than Latex. There is almost no need to google "How to {anything}". However, the path from the users feedback to the updates is extremely winding. If fixing bugs or updating was as simple as making a PR on the GitHu
