In "nroff" mode, italic font renders as an underlined text, which
makes it indistinguishable from the bold text on color monitors
(cons25 terminal type), yet it requires the less(1)'s -R option.
(Refer to the new grotty(1) manpage for details.)
So turn off the color support for now (when generating catpages),
until we figure out what do we do with this new feature. I have
a patch for grotty(1) that tells it to use the "reverse video"
attribute to render the italic font. Once this is accepted, we
can turn color support back on (if there won't be any objections
from the community).
and `maninstall' targets. This fixes the issue where each subdir
was descended into twice during "make all", and also resurrects
the standardization of `maninstall'.
Urged by: bde
Ensure all standard targets honor SUBDIR. Now `make obj' descends into
SUBDIRs even if NOOBJ is set (some descendants may still need an object
directory, but we do not have such precedents). Now `make install' in
non-bsd.subdir.mk makefiles runs `afterinstall' target _after_ `install'
in SUBDIRs, like we do in bsd.subdir.mk. Nothing depended on the wrong
order anyway.
Fixed `distribute' targets (except for the bsd.subdir.mk version) so that
they do not depend on _SUBDIR; `distribute' calls `install' which already
depends on _SUBDIR.
De-standardize `maninstall', otherwise manpages would be installed twice.
(To be revised later.)
to use ``.if defined()'' inside bsd.own.mk to test for defines
in individual makefiles. For example, setting DEBUG_FLAGS in
Makefile didn't take the desired effect on the STRIP assignment.
Added bsd.init.mk (like in NetBSD) that handles the inclusion
of ../Makefile.inc and bsd.own.mk from all bsd.*.mk files that
"build something".
Back out bsd.own.mk,v 1.15: moved OBJFORMAT initialization back
to sys.mk (several source tree makefiles want to check it early)
and removed MACHINE_ARCH initialization (it's hard to see from
looking at the commitlogs what the problem was at the time, but
now it serves no purpose).
Prohibit the direct inclusion of bsd.man.mk and bsd.libnames.mk.
Protect bsd.obj.mk from repetitive inclusion. Prohibiting the
direct inclusion of bsd.obj.mk might be a good idea too.
when certain .mk files include other .mk files. This will remove the
need for multiple include protection in some other makefiles around the
tree (and helps some elf conditionals).
bsd.doc.mk:
rename GZIPCMD to DCOMPRESS_CMD, add DCOMPRESS_EXT
bsd.info.mk:
rename GZIPCMD to ICOMPRESS_CMD, add ICOMPRESS_EXT
set INFOTMPL to ${INFODIR}/dir-tmpl
bsd.man.mk
rename ZEXTENSION to MCOMPRESS_EXT, MCOMPRESS to MCOMPRESS_CMD
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
man pages (eg: named/bind/etc). In order to get (say) dig.1 to pass
through the filter and produce a new dig.1 for installing, I used an
intermediate file at build time, similar to the way the .gz man pages are
built.
I've not extensively tested this, but it seems to work for the known
cases where it was failing, and it only affects the NOMANCOMPRESS case
which was already broken.

pipe the man page source through before compressing or installing.
This can be used to do do (eg) sed substitution on man pages from
3rd party packages (in particular, ncurses and bind-4.9.4)
This should not affect anything already in the source tree.
