Hi folks,
The spark for this was comments on the ML about using BROWSER=cygstart man -H to
render pages in the browser, finding that other pages with tables work okay on
all devices/encodings/file formats, except strftime, which is an area of
interest to me, renders its table only on tty devices/encodings/file formats.
Following up on the groff list, found out that other -T devices/file formats
also fail to render that page's table, where others are okay, due to known
conflicts and deficiencies in man/tbl/groff processing of long tables > page size.
Please let me know if you want more docs, comments, code, etc. to progress this.
