https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D274247 Ingo Schwarze <schwarze@usta.de> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |schwarze@usta.de --- Comment #4 from Ingo Schwarze <schwarze@usta.de> --- Upstream talking here... Why do you want this? What is so special about empty input compared to other non-manual-page input that you want special handling for one but not for the other? For example, doas it matter for you what echo foo | mandoc does, and if it matters, why does that matter for you? While mandoc(1) usually strives for groff compatibility *inside manual page= s*, handling arbitrary low-level roff(7) input *outside manual pages* is not am= ong the goals of mandoc(1). I'm not saying what you are asking for is unreasonable. What i'm trying to= say is that i need to understand what you need this for before i can make up my mind whether and how your goals might be reached. Bapt@'s very ad-hoc patch does not strike me as particularly useful as far as i can see so far. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
