Here are some things that would be useful additions to groff:
ideal preprocessor - Bernd Warken <groff-bernd.warken-72@web.de> I
started the programming of `ideal' language and `gideal'
preprocessor, which will eventually be added to the groff
distribution.
refer: `refer' database directory under /usr/local/share.
There maybe create a default database `Ind' or others for
storing books and documents for `groff' man pages.
Write the following `groff' programs from Heirloom and
`refer' history:
- addbib
- roffbib
- sortbib
-mv macros (for typesetting viewgraphs and slides)
a deroff that understands long names
a page-makeup postprocessor and associated macro package
(like pm and -mpm)
If you want to work on one of these, you should probably post to
gnu.groff.bug (or send email to groff@gnu.org) to see if anyone else
has gotten there first.
