more MAN2TXT follow-up
Following a commit for Issue #1153, g-branden-robinson commented: > Mac OS X stayed on _groff_ 1.19.2 for over a decade (presumably due to > _groff_ 1.20 adopting to GNU GPLv3), until finally dropping _groff_ > altogether for macOS Ventura (2022). > > There _has_ been an interface change in that time. The [`-P` option I > advised about is new to _groff_ 1.23.0 (July 2023)] > (https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/groff.git/tree/NEWS?h=1.23.0#n86). > [...] > > There is a significant number of _groff_ users via Homebrew (enough that > we hear from them occasionally via bug reports). Some of these have > upgraded to 1.23.0 via that mechanism. > [...] > > `nroff -` is not necessary with any _nroff_ known to me; like many other > Bell Labs Unix programs, it reads from the standard input stream by default > if not given any operands. Action taken: 1. Remove the unnecessary ' -' from the nroff command in Makefile.doc. 2. In the misc.370 file containing make snippets to include, test whether groff >= 1.23, and only insert the -P option for 1.23 or greater.
