Dear list,
well - I sure am glad that groff is maintained again! I was feeling
lonely out there using groff all by myself. Thanks new
maintainers!
Here's my first problem:
if you pipe \n(dy/\n(mo/\n(yr here's what you get today:
20/1/100
This is due to the fact that \n(yr is initialized using the struct tm->year
field, which counts years from 1900. A backward-compatible solution
(one that gives back '00') would be the best, but I don't know how
to realize it...
ciao and thanks again
Nicola

with pictures.
