Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: groff-1.22.2-2
Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2014 06:20:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <announce.20140115061600.GA4669@ednor.casa.cgf.cx> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120422184814.GA14593@ednor.casa.cgf.cx>

I've made a new version of groff available for installation.  This is a
refresh from ftp.gnu.org.  groff pretty much builds straight out of the
box.

This release contains an extra "groff-perl" package, as promised here:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-01/msg00117.html

So this should eliminate the dependency that pulls in perl in a base
installation.

I decided not to follow Fedora's packaging exactly since Fedora also
splits out a few more groff packages and that would have potential
dependency consequences.

Groff is a document formatting system.  Groff takes standard text and
formatting commands as input and produces formatted output.  The created
documents can be shown on a display or printed on a printer.  Groff's
formatting commands allow you to specify font type and size, bold type,
italic type, the number and size of columns on a page, and more.

Groff is available in the "Text" category under setup.exe.
