Excellent! Good to hear from you.

I still read the list.

It seems that \: does more than I expected, and I'm wondering if that's
my fault or groff's fault.
Consider the following:
.pl 1v
.ll 1u
.hy 4
http://metathesis.com/foobar.html
.sp 1v
\%http://metathesis.com/foobar.html
.sp 1v
\%http
Sorry for the somewhat loud subject line, but we don't often see Werner
or Bertrand on this list anymore and to my recollection, I've never seen
Vaibhaw[1].
Can we have a Savannah bug category for "Macro - me", please?
I'd do it myself, but even as a "manager" for the tracker, ah cain't.

I don't understand how empty lines at the end can be related
to making things bold (which is what "b" is
hello roffers,
i wrote this filter
sed '

tab(:);\
lB l l l.
$a.TE
' | tbl |groff -kTutf8 | sed '/^$/q'
so i can get readable tables as stdout of my shell scripts. i wrote it
as a hack but now i'm wondering ...

To implement .index as a macro one could consider using .substring
together with the Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm. I've done simpler
things eg the equivalent of The C library substr().

Denis: he's not referring to *content* indexing, but a Heirloom Troff
request named `.index` which should arguably be named `.indexof` instead.
It simply returns the index of a substring if found within a larger string,
presumably returning -1 to indicate nothing
I have an indexing package which uses 'makeindex', and the results are
good. Indexing is quite complicated. If you care to look at the source
it is in Index,pkg part of

In any case, handling line-wrapping isn't the responsibility of the
hyperlink macro. Mono is more of a general-purpose utility-belt for
low-level Roff programming than a high-level document preparation package
(in the sense of ms, mm, mom, mdoc, etc).
No need to implement the Boyer-Moore algorithm
