The mandoc manual page parser and formatter contains:
* complete validating parsers for the mdoc and man languages
* a slightly incomplete parser handling most of the tbl language
* a very incomplete parser handling a part of the eqn language
* support for a few selected roff requests that often occur in manuals
* complete ASCII, UTF8, HTML and XHTML text output formatters
* simple PostScript and PDF output formatters
* output formatters producing indented mdoc and man parse trees
To format manuals for console display, it can be used as a smaller
and faster drop-in replacement for nroff -mandoc. Some rare manuals
using lots of uncommon low-level roff requests may not work with
mandoc but require a full roff implementation.
