|Hello,
|I got the "UNIX Text Processing" book in groff format, link "groff and
|PostScript files--Beta" at [1] and built the default "utp_book.ps"
|target.
|The resulting PostScript file and its conversion to PDF via ps2pdf
|have no outline.
|
|I see the Makefile is doing… something to generate the ToC and in fact
|it has toc.t as dependency of utp_book.ps target, this file is not
|used anymore when building utp_book.ps .
|
|I am very new to groff, I am in the process of reading the groff
|chapter of the book now, can anyone enlighten me about what's
|happening with the ToC there, if it is supposed to be available and
|browseable from PS/PDF viewer or if it is an "incomplete feature" of
|the groff port of the book?
In private i have pointed Andrea to the pdfmark macros, which
could be used to extend the UTP header macros (seem to be Se and
Ah) to gain PDF support.
