Release 1.1.4 ------------- ***SIGNIFICANT CHANGE*** .IX is now deprecated, although it will continue to work as before. The new form is .IQ (Indent Quit). Groff will emit a message advising users to update their docs. ***NEW*** Four new inlines to deal with horizontal and vertical movements: o \*[FWD n] o \*[BCK n] o \*[UP n] o \*[DOWN n] All four require a unit of measure after n. These inlines are similar to the older \*[FPn], \*[BPn], \*[ALDn] and \*[RLDn], however they're not restricted to points, and any value can be entered for n (the older forms -- which still work -- were restricted to 1 - 36). ***CHANGED*** Inline kerning can now be accomplished with \*[BU n] and \*[FU n], where n, after the space, is the desired number of kern units. The older forms \*[BUn] and \*[FUn] still work, up to 36 units. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Release 1.1.3c -------------- ***NEW*** A new macro -- ENDNOTES_HDRFTR_CENTER -- added so that mom's default behaviour of not printing the header center string when DOCTYPE is CHAPTER can be disabled (i.e. she will print the center string). The macro is user-called with ENDNOTES_HEADER_CENTER or ENDNOTES_FOOTER_CENTER. ***FIXES*** PAD now works as advertised when fill mode is on. ENDNOTES no longer disables printing of footnotes on last page of document body. Release 1.1.3 ------------- ***SIGNIFICANT CHANGE -- PLEASE TAKE NOTE*** As of 1.1.3, groff must be >= 1.18. ***NEW*** Added endnotes functionality to mom, along with a slew of macros to control how mom prints endnotes pages. See the html documentation. ***NEW*** Added inline \*[RULE], which draws a rule to the full measure of the current line length ( to be used in place of \h'\n(.lu' ). Weight of the rule is dependent on the point size of type when \#[RULE] is called. ***FIXES*** PAD -- works more intuitively now when the pad string contains inline escapes for font, point size, etc. UNDERLINE -- fixed character translations of digraphs so they get underlined properly. Also fixed a bug that was causing some footnotes to get underlined when UNDERLINE was on in the body of the document. ***UPDATES*** Html documentation elvis_syn Release 1.1.2a -------------- ***SIGNIFICANT CHANGE -- PLEASE TAKE NOTE*** In order to help mom toward full groffship, the macro .PS has been renamed to .PT_SIZE, and the alias .TS (for .TAB_SET) has been removed. .PS and .TS are keywords used by pic and tbl respectively, and the mom macros of the same name were in conflict. Release 1.1.2 ------------- ***IT'S OFFICIAL!*** mom is now an official part of the groff. New releases will be incorporated into the groff package. I'll still be posting each new release on the mom homepage, so there's no need to download all of the most recent version of groff just to get a newer mom. :) ***CHANGES*** Fixed default footer separator rule adjustment so that it's closer to the advertised "4 points above the tallest ascender in the footer." Added more stuff to the elvis_syn file. Still wouldn't mind someone contributing some vim/emacs syntax highlighting. Added .cflags 4 /\(em to om.tmac. By default, mom now obligingly breaks after / and \(en. ***NEW*** Macro(s): HEADER_RECTO HEADER_VERSO With these macros, users can now define single-string recto/verso headers/footers. HEADER_RECTO (or FOOTER_RECTO) can be used to create a one-part header/footer (instead of mom's default three-parters) that appears on every page if RECTO_VERSO is OFF or, if RECTO_VERSO is on, if no HEADER_VERSO (or FOOTER_VERSO) has been defined. If a HEADER_VERSO (or FOOTER_VERSO) is defined and RECTO_VERSO is on, _RECTO prints on even pages and _VERSO on odd pages. Added macro DRAFT_WITH_PAGENUMBER so user can have draft/revision info attached to the pagenumber in COPYSTYLE DRAFT, instead of having it HEADER center. Always having it HEADER center was creating problems with long doc titles, esp. with PRINTSTYLE TYPEWRITE (which is when COPYSTYLE DRAFT is most likely to be used). ***FIXES*** No more "can't break line" warnings in DOCTYPE LETTER. If no REVISION number is given, Rev. 0 no longer appears HEADER_CENTER in COPYSTYLE DRAFT PAGENUM_STYLE now works as advertised. Release 1.1.1 ------------- ***CHANGES*** Main macro file renamed to om.tmac, in keeping with current groff policy. Now okay to use groff mailing list for mom-related posts ***NEW*** Toggle macro -- BR_AT_LINE_KERN. When on, automatically deposits a break whenever .RW or .EW are invoked. Very useful when kerning whole lines of rag copy. ***NEW*** Toggle macro -- PAGENUM_ON_FIRST_PAGE. Normally, when FOOTERS are being used instead of HEADERS, mom doesn't print the page number at the top of the first page of a doc, or the first page of collated docs. PAGENUM_ON_FIRST_PAGE allows user to get mom to put the page number on "first" pages if that's desired. ***NEW*** Macro -- BREAK_QUOTE -- to deal with problem of footnoted quotes and blockquotes that cross a page or column. ***NEW*** New argument to AUTOLEAD -- FACTOR. With FACTOR, you can, if you wish, enter a factor by which AUTOLEAD multiplies the point size when calculating lead automatically. Improvements ------------ PAPER now has a much larger selection of common paper sizes. \*[ALD], \*[RLD], \*[FP] and \*[BP] now accept increments of quarter points (expressed as decimal fractions). \*[RLD1.75], for example, reverses 1-3/4 points up on the line. HEADER_SIZE now available to PRINTSTYLE TYPEWRITE. This was necessary to deal with the problem of excessively long HEADER_LEFT, _CENTER or _RIGHT strings. Fixes ----- T_MARGIN -- can be set before or after LS or AUTOLEAD SS -- remains constant regardless of WS WS -- no longer affects SS TI -- now works as expected even when called while another indent type is in effect COLLATE -- small fixes Broken .RW and .EW fixed. String tabs now behave properly when set from within tabs. UNDERLINE_QUOTES (for PRINTSTYLE TYPEWRITE) are now, in fact, on by default as the docs state.
