Re: "Groff I: Whence and Wherefore"

In: u/dozens

i found out about

— groff studio

a couple of days ago from #fpc (freepascal) chat on libera irc network.

the developer was saying it didn't build with latest newly released lazarus and that he 'fixed' something, not sure where.

so not sure you can build it right now, i hesitated to post this link in my other commett because i am not sure the project builds, but let it be here, it may be found later by someone interested in roff, when the project will be in better shape.

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!

btw i tried to build that project on linux and it built. the layout was not tested on litux so some things were under other things.

but anyway, it is not for me, i don't know how it makes groff more convenient than writing in any preferred editor and compiling with groff. (:

Sweet! Thanks for sharing. The macos binary didn't work for me, so I wasn't able to check it out myself. Sounds like a cool project if not more useful than an editor and a pdf viewer.
