- Groff Bug Report
-
- Please read the PROBLEMS file before sending in a bug report.
-
- Please fill in all fields, even if you think they are not relevant.
-
- Please delete the text in brackets before sending it in.
-
- Please report separate bugs separately.
-
- Send the completed form to bug-groff@gnu.org
-
- GROFF VERSION:
- [The version of groff you are using. For example, `1.05']
-
- MACHINE:
- [The machine you are using. For example, `Sun SPARCstation 2']
-
- OS:
- [The operating system you are using. For example, `SunOS 4.1.1']
-
- COMPILER:
- [The compiler you are used to compile groff. For example, `g++ 1.40.3']
-
- INPUT FILES:
- [Include all the files necessary to reproduce the problem that are not
- part of the standard groff distribution. This includes font
- description files, DESC files and macro files (with the exception of
- the -ms and -mm macros: we have them). Send them as a shell archive or
- as a uuencoded, compressed tar file.
-
- It's easier for us if you can provide an example that doesn't depend on
- any macro package, but obviously if you're reporting a problem with a
- macro package that won't be possible. Also a short example is more
- convenient than a long one, but don't worry if you can't find a short
- example. Don't say something like ``any file that X'': Always send a
- definite example.]
-
- COMMAND LINE:
- [The command line that we should run in order to observe the bug. For
- example, `gtroff -Tps bug.tr'. If the command line uses -ms or -mm,
- say whether these refer to the groff versions or the Unix versions of
- the macros.]
-
- DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:
- [What goes wrong when that command line is run? For example, `gtroff
- gets a segmentation fault', or `The output looks bad because the bar
- over the x is too long and is too far over to the left.' If you get an
- error message, include it here without modification: Don't edit it to
- make it more readable.]
-
- SUGGESTED FIX [optional]:
- [If you can suggest a fix for the problem, include a context diff here.
- But don't delay sending in a bug report in the hope of finding a fix.
- Guesses about the cause of the bug are not usually helpful.]
