Hello Branden Recently I noticed groff's bug tracker on savannah.gnu.org lists groff's preprocessors in alphabetic order. The man page of groff (as provided by with package 1.23.0-10 in Debian 14/forky, testing), section `Preprocessors` (about 40% in to the document) does not follow this sequence.
Is this discrepancy because the former is a sort by a computer, the later by priority how frequently a typical user of groff likely engages one of them? If not -- would it matter much if the two were in sync, i.e. both in alphabetic order? Second, since groff initially was / is more about technical communication / documentation, could `chem` and again explicitly appear among the preprocessors in the pull-down menu, too? Maybe an entry for each of the preprocessors the man page mentions, to the result the entry `Preprocessors others/general` on the menu to become `Preprocessors, general` alone? I don't consider either one as a bug and maybe there are reasons for the current state I'm not (yet) aware. Norwid
