#! /bin/sh # # Fix a problem with HTML output produced by makeinfo 4.8. # # groff.texinfo uses (after macro expansion) something like # # @deffn ... # @XXindex ... # @deffnx ... # # which has worked with earlier versions (using an undocumented feature # of the implementation of @deffn and @deffnx). Version 4.8 has new # code for generating HTML, and the above construction produces wrong # HTML output: It starts a new
without closing it properly. # The very problem is that, according to the documentation, the @deffnx # must immediately follow the @deffn line, making it impossible to add # entries into user-defined indices if supplied with macro wrappers around # @deffn and @deffnx. # # Note that this script is a quick hack and tightly bound to the current # groff.texinfo macro code. Hopefully, a new texinfo version makes it # unnecessary. t=${TMPDIR-.}/gro$$.tmp cat $1 | sed ' 1 { N N } :b $b N /^\n.*\n\n \—/ { s/^
