What is the purpose of adding '\&' (zero width space) at the end of line? In other words, what output will be produced for the previous file (which does not have '\&') and the new file (which has tailing '\&'), and are they same or not? If output is totally different (not cosmetic change), I will understand that mdoc(7)NG is not backward compatible to old mdoc(7). If output is basically same, it is OK for me. I saw trailing '\&' is added in at least pax.1 and wargames.6, and I was afraid that mdoc(7)NG will change trailing puctuation treatment. In pax.1, .Ar ... is replaced with .Ar ...\& and in src/games/wargames/wargames.6, .Dq Shall we play a game? is replaced with .Dq Shall we play a game?\& I am translating FreeBSD manpages into Japanese (which are stored in doc/ja_JP.eucJP/man). These manuals are formatted by ports ja-groff (/usr/ports/japanese/groff), which uses FreeBSD's tmac.mdoc. I am trying to continue to add changes which are applied to src tree manpages (RELENG_4) in order to sync up with src. So, I would like to know whether any impact exists or not once mdoc(7)NG macro is incorporated into FreeBSD tree. I think new functionality such as ".Ar -nosplit" is cool and I do not intend to discourage your tasks.
