Hi folks,
I've updated the groff home page. Yesterday, to reflect the release;
today, to update the online copies of our Texinfo manual and to add the
collected groff man pages.
You can have a look at:
https://www.gnu.org/software/groff/manual/
The groff home page is managed in CVS; dealing with CVS consistently
reminds me how much more pleasant Git is to work with. Here's a
condensed digest of changes.
---
groff online manual: Update and revamp.
* Do less by hand.
- Add Makefile.
- Create index.html from index.html.in.
- Get file sizes from system.
* Drop PostScript version of manual; groff 1.23.0 doesn't generate it.
* Rename "groff.html_node.tar.gz" to "groff.html.node.tar.gz" to match
current practice in the groff build.
* Replace "groff.texi.tar.gz" with "groff.texi.gz"; there's no point
having a single-file tape archive.
* Provide our Texinfo in source form as well (plain and compressed).
* Update descriptions of documentation files. Most importantly,
describe plain texi version of our Texinfo manual as encoded in "ISO
Latin-1" instead of "ASCII", which was incorrect.

manual: Add groff man page collection.

manual/index.html*: Fix ugly markup.
