URL: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54213> Summary: grodvi: broken ^ and ~ Project: GNU troff Submitted by: None Submitted on: Sat 30 Jun 2018 03:33:14 PM UTC Category: Device - others Severity: 3 - Normal Item Group: Incorrect behaviour Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Planned Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: grodvi replaces ascii ^ (U+005E) by ˆ (U+02C6) and ~ (U+007E) by ˜ (U+02DC). Test case: $ cat test.man .TH test 1 .BI "perl example: " "$str =~ m/^[a-z]$/;" $ man -Tdvi ./test.man | dvipdfmx > test.pdf $ pdftotext test.pdf - And check that there is correct output: $str =~ m/^[a-z]$/; Currently there is ˆ and ˜. Werner LEMBERG wrote on mailing list that there are already macros for textual representation form: \(ha and \(ti. So they should be used for ^ and ~ by default. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54213> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
