%description
The doclifter program translates documents written in troff macros to
DocBook.  Lifting documents from presentation level to semantic level
is difficult, and a really good job requires human polishing, but this
tool does about 95% of the work.  It aims to do everything that can be
mechanized, and to preserve in XML comments any troff-level
information that might have structural implications.  Also includes
manlifter, a driver script that can be used to convert entire
manual-page hierarchies.

%changelog
* Mon Dec 25 2006 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 2.3-1
- Work around a bug in db2man.xsl.  Implement Markus Hoenicka's
  requested behavior for multiple-file conversions. Implement
  translation of groff extended .cc and .c2 requests.  Ignore
  the .TA macro that occurs duplicatively with .ta in X.org 
  manual pages.  Cope with unresolved .Sx refererences in mdoc.
  Handle .Ex and .Ee.  Cope with X consortium macro preamble better.
  .RS/.RE is now fully handled, no more spurious warnings.

* Sat Jan 15 2005 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 2.2-1
- Have manlifter create subdirectories and the xslfragment 
  only in batch mode.  Use current list indent on block start/end.

* Fri Jan 14 2005 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 2.1-1
- Interrupt handlers are refactored so manlifter can be aborted with
  a single ^C; as a result, exit values 4 and 5 have swapped places.
  In manlifter, don't remove the result file unless we're in batchmode.
  Lifts 96% of 11121 pages in a full Fedora Core 3 install.

* Fri Dec 24 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 2.0-1
- Added manlifter to the distribution. doclifter no longer strips off file 
  extensions before appending .xml. Major improvement in parsing of
  displays; C function prototypes are now recognized in them.

* Sat Nov 20 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 1.15-1
- Fix logic for flushing mdoc namediv.  Handle tables within mdoc lists better.
  Strip out some pod2man-generated cliches.

* Thu Sep 2 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 1.14-1
- Added -e option to set encoding in the output XML.  Documented 
  required file extensions for mm, me, ms.  Now lift some trivial uses
  of eqn(1) markup.  Better handling of mm header markup.  Interpret
  the X source distribution's local macros as a secondary markup.
  Nuke &hairsp; it's documented but apparently not actually defined.

* Fri Aug 13 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 1.13-1
- Manual date now goes in refentryinfo, as Steve Cheng suggested.
  Restored correct parsing of multicommand synopses.

* Tue Jul 27 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@golux.thyrsus.com> - 1.12-1

  multiple Synopsis headers.

* Mon Jul 26 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 1.11-1
- Speed optimizations.  Improved pod2man detection.  Close <anchor/> properly.
  .UN before .SH or .SS sets the XML ID of the generated section.
  Boldfaced lines immediately before tables are interpreted as titles. .UR now
  generates <link> for local links.  Improved .RE handling that fixes
  a couple of edge cases.  Multiline table entries are now interpreted as full
  blocks, so commands work normally there.

* Tue Jul  6 2004 Eric S. Raymond <esr@snark.thyrsus.com> - 1.10-1

  doesn't get screwed up.  Don't generate invalid class attribute for
  <programlisting> and <symbol>.  The .RS command no longer ends a
  .IP or .TP entry.  Correct .Ql so it doesn't generate spurious 
  line breaks. Fix a bug in <group> syntax processing.  Declare <envar>
