The IRC bouncer Soju uses scdoc and this has been personally annoying, as I refuse to install it just to build semantically less expressive documentation than when using the very well documented (https://mandoc.bsd.lv/man/mdoc.7.html https://mandoc.bsd.lv/man/mdoc.7.html) mdoc format. I asked the maintainer if they were interested in a contribution to translate it, and they just dismissed it out of the box.
- packetlost 2y agoWho cares how expressive it is? It hits all the core pieces of formatting you can realistically do in a terminal using syntax that is familiar to a much wider range of developers. The output is completely usable and reasonable. I'd rather use something closer to markdown than roff macro gunk that is largely irrelevant anywhere else.
