Hello, Today's mandoc update in CURRENT [0] comes with two changes for writing library manuals: The library macro, Lb, is now to be used in SYONPSIS for brevity, where it renders as a C-style comment. The LIBRARY section is now deprecated for new manuals. The function type macro, Ft, has been overhauled, allowing for multiple arguments. It can, but should not be quoted. Both changes are reflected in the mdoc(7) manual and should produce no change in existing manuals. [0]: 4c07abdbacf4 (mandoc: Vendor import of upstream at 2025-06-13) Best, Alex
