<para>If non-zero, hyphenation is enabled.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<note>
|
||
|
<para>The default value for this parameter is zero because groff is
|
||
|
not particularly smart about how it does hyphenation; it can end up
|
||
|
hyphenating a lot of things that you don't want hyphenated. To
|
||
|
mitigate that, the default behavior of the stylesheets is to suppress
|
||
|
hyphenation of computer inlines, filenames, and URLs. (You can
|
||
|
override the default behavior by setting non-zero values for the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.hyphenate.urls</parameter>,
|
||
|
<parameter>man.hyphenate.filenames</parameter>, and
|
||
|
<parameter>man.hyphenate.computer.inlines</parameter> parameters.) But
|
||
|
the best way is still to just globally disable hyphenation, as the
|
||
|
stylesheets do by default.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>The only good reason to enabled hyphenation is if you have also
|
||
|
enabled justification (which is disabled by default). The reason is
|
||
|
that justified text can look very bad unless you also hyphenate it; to
|
||
|
quote the <quote>Hypenation</quote> node from the groff info page:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
<para><emphasis>Since the odds are not great for finding a set of
|
||
|
words, for every output line, which fit nicely on a line without
|
||
|
inserting excessive amounts of space between words, 'gtroff'
|
||
|
hyphenates words so that it can justify lines without inserting too
|
||
|
much space between words.</emphasis></para>
|
||
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
||
|
So, if you set a non-zero value for the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.justify</parameter> parameter (to enable
|
||
|
justification), then you should probably also set a non-zero value for
|
||
|
<parameter>man.hyphenate</parameter> (to enable hyphenation).</para>

<para>If non-zero, text is justified to both the right and left

"ragged-right" text.</para>

<note>
|

|
<para>The default value for this parameter is zero because justified

text looks good only when it is also hyphenated. Without hyphenation,

excessive amounts of space often end up getting between words, in
|

order to "pad" lines out to align on the right margin.</para>
|

|
|

|
<para>The problem is that groff is not particularly smart about how it
|
||
|
does hyphenation; it can end up hyphenating a lot of things that you
|
||
|
don't want hyphenated. So, disabling both justification and
|
||
|
hyphenation ensures that hyphens won't get inserted where you don't
|
||
|
want to them, and you don't end up with lines containing excessive
|
||
|
amounts of space between words.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>However, if do you decide to set a non-zero value for the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.justify</parameter> parameter (to enable
|
||
|
justification), then you should probably also set a non-zero value for
|
||
|
<parameter>man.hyphenate</parameter> (to enable hyphenation).</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>Yes, these default settings run counter to how most existing man
|
||
|
pages are formatted. But there are some notable exceptions, such as
|
||
|
the <literal>perl</literal> man pages.</para>

effect of sometimes causing relatively short URLs and pathnames to be

<para>If zero (the default), line-breaking after slashes is

formats it to indicate that the formatted text is

|
good reason to apply font formatting to links. However, if

|
<parameter>man.endnotes.are.numbered</parameter> is non-zero, having
|
||
|
font formatting for links (arguably) serves a purpose: It provides

||
|
“context” information about exactly what part of the text
|
||
|
is being “annotated” by the link. Depending on how you
|
||
|
mark up your content, that context information may or may not
|

have value.</para></footnote>.</para>

<para>If the value of <parameter>man.endnotes.list.enabled</parameter> is
|
||
|
non-zero (the default), then an endnotes list is added to the end of

the output man page.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>If the value of <parameter>man.endnotes.list.enabled</parameter> is
|
||
|
zero, the list is suppressed — unless link numbering is enabled (that
|
||
|
is, if <parameter>man.endnotes.are.numbered</parameter> is non-zero), in
|
||
|
which case, that setting overrides the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.endnotes.list.enabled</parameter> setting, and the
|
||
|
endnotes list is still displayed. The reason is that inline
|
||
|
numbering of notesources associated with endnotes only makes sense
|
||
|
if a (numbered) list of endnotes is also generated.</para>
|

<note>
|
||
|
<para>Leaving
|
||
|
<parameter>man.endnotes.list.enabled</parameter> at its default
|
||
|
(non-zero) value ensures that no “out of line” information (such
|
||
|
as the URLs for hyperlinks and images) gets lost in your
|
||
|
man-page output. It just gets “rearranged”.</para>
|
||
|
<para>So if you’re thinking about disabling endnotes listing by
|
||
|
setting the value of
|
||
|
<parameter>man.endnotes.list.enabled</parameter> to zero:
|
||
|
Before you do so, first take some time to carefully consider
|
||
|
the information needs and experiences of your users. The “out
|
||
|
of line” information has value even if the presentation of it
|
||
|
in text output is not as interactive as it may be in other
|
||
|
output formats.</para>
|
||
|
<para>As far as the specific case of URLs: Even though the URLs
|
||
|
displayed in text output may not be “real” (clickable)
|
||
|
hyperlinks, many X terminals have convenience features for
|
||
|
recognizing URLs and can, for example, present users with
|
||
|
an options to open a URL in a browser with the user clicks on
|
||
|
the URL is a terminal window. And short of those, users with X
|
||
|
terminals can always manually cut and paste the URLs into a web
|
||
|
browser.</para>
|
||
|
<para>Also, note that various “man to html” tools, such as the
|
||
|
widely used <command><link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="http://users.actrix.gen.nz/michael/vhman2html.html">man2html</link></command> (<literal>VH-Man2html</literal>)
|
||
|
application, automatically mark up URLs with <literal>a@href</literal> markup
|
||
|
during conversion — resulting in “real” hyperlinks in HTML
|
||
|
output from those tools.</para>
|
||
|
</note>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>To “turn off” numbering of endnotes in the
|
||
|
endnotes list, set <parameter>man.endnotes.are.numbered</parameter>
|
||
|
to zero. The endnotes list will
|
||
|
still be displayed; it will just be displayed without the
|
||
|
numbers<footnote><para>It can still make sense to have
|
||
|
the list of endnotes displayed even if you have endnotes numbering turned
|
||
|
off. In that case, your endnotes list basically becomes a “list
|
||
|
of references” without any association with specific text in
|
||
|
your document. This is probably the best option if you find the inline
|
||
|
endnotes numbering obtrusive. Your users will still have access to all the “out of line”
|
||
|
such as URLs for hyperlinks.</para></footnote>
|
||
|
</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>The default heading for the endnotes list is
|
||
|
<literal>NOTES</literal>. To change that, set a non-empty
|
||
|
value for the <parameter>man.endnotes.list.heading</parameter>
|
||
|
parameter.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>In the case of notesources that are links: Along with the
|
||
|
URL for each link, the endnotes list includes the contents of the
|
||
|
link. The list thus includes only non-empty<footnote>

</para></footnote> links.
|
||
|

||
|
Empty links are never included, and never numbered. They are simply
|
||
|
displayed inline, without any numbering.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>In addition, if there are multiple instances of links in a
|
||
|
<tag>refentry</tag> that have the same URL, the URL is listed only
|
||
|
once. The contents listed for that link in the endnotes list are
|
||
|
the contents of the first link which has that URL.</para>
|
||
|
|
||

<para>If you disable endnotes listing, you should probably also set

link underlining).</para>

<para>If you are thinking about disabling endnote numbering by setting

before you do so, first take some time to carefully

square-bracketed numbers displayed inline after notesources may seem

obstrusive and aesthetically unpleasing<footnote><para>As far as notesources that are links, ytou might
|

think it would be better to just display URLs for non-empty

links inline, after their content, rather than displaying
|

|
square-bracketed numbers all over the place. But it's not better. In
|
||
|
fact, it's not even practical, because many (most) URLs for links
|
||
|
are too long to be displayed inline. They end up overflowing the
|
||
|
right margin. You can set a non-zero value for
|
||
|
<parameter>man.break.after.slash</parameter> parameter to deal with
|
||
|
that, but it could be argued that what you end up with is at least

as ugly, and definitely more obstrusive, then having short
|
||
|
square-bracketed numbers displayed inline.</para></footnote>,
|
||
|
|
||
|
but in a text-only output format, the
|
||
|
numbered-notesources/endnotes-listing mechanism is the only
|

|
practical way to handle this kind of content.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>Also, users of “text based” browsers such as

the widely used <command><link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="http://users.actrix.gen.nz/michael/vhman2html.html">man2html</link></command> (<literal>VH-Man2html</literal>)
|

|
application, can automatically turn URLs into "real" HTML hyperlinks
|
||
|
in output. So leaving <parameter>man.endnotes.are.numbered</parameter>
|
||

at its default (non-zero) value ensures that no information is

lost in your man-page output. It just gets

<para>The handling of empty links is not affected by this

increase the time needed to process your documents. Or it may

not. For example, if you set it and run it with xsltproc, it seems

to dramatically increase processing time; on the other hand, if you

set it and run it with Saxon, it does not seem to increase

is evaluated as an XPath expression at run-time to select a portion of

the roff character map to use. You can tune the subset used by adding

or removing parts. For example, if you need to use a wide range of
|

|
mathematical operators in a document, and you want to have them
|
||
|
converted into roff markup properly, you might add the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<literallayout class="monospaced"> @*[local-name() = 'block'] ='MathematicalOperators' </literallayout>
|

characters to be converted into roff markup. </para>

<note>
|

<para>Depending on which XSLT engine you use, either the EXSLT

<function>dyn:evaluate</function> extension function (for xsltproc or

|
Xalan) or <function>saxon:evaluate</function> extension function (for
|

Saxon) are used to dynamically evaluate the value of
|

|
<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter> at run-time. If you
|
||
|
don't use xsltproc, Saxon, Xalan -- or some other XSLT engine that
|
||
|
supports <function>dyn:evaluate</function> -- you must either set the
|
||
|
value of the <parameter>man.charmap.use.subset</parameter> parameter
|
||
|
to zero and process your documents using the full character map
|
||
|
instead, or set the value of the

<parameter>man.charmap.enabled</parameter> parameter to zero instead
|

(so that character-map processing is disabled completely.</para>

</note>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>An alternative to using
|

<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter> is to create your
|
||
|
own custom character map, and set the value of
|
||
|
<parameter>man.charmap.uri</parameter> to the URI/filename for
|
||
|
that. If you use a custom character map, you will probably want to
|
||
|
include in it just the characters you want to use, and so you will
|
||
|
most likely also want to set the value of
|
||
|
<parameter>man.charmap.use.subset</parameter> to zero.</para>
|
||
|
<para>You can create a
|
||
|
custom character map by making a copy of the <link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/snapshot/xsl/manpages/charmap.groff.xsl">standard roff character map</link> provided in the distribution, and

then adding to, changing, and/or deleting from that.</para>

|
<caution>
|
||
|
<para>If you author your DocBook XML source in UTF-8 or UTF-16
|

|
encoding and aren't sure what OSes or environments your man-page
|
||
|
output might end up being viewed on, and not sure what version of
|
||
|
nroff/groff those environments might have, you should be careful about
|
||
|
what Unicode symbols and special characters you use in your source and
|
||
|
what parts you add to the value of
|
||
|
<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter>.</para>
|
||
|
<para>Many of the escape codes used are specific to groff and using
|
||
|
them may not provide the expected output on an OS or environment that
|
||
|
uses nroff instead of groff.</para>
|
||
|
<para>On the other hand, if you intend for your man-page output to be
|
||
|
viewed only on modern systems (for example, GNU/Linux systems, FreeBSD
|
||
|
systems, or Cygwin environments) that have a good, up-to-date groff,
|
||
|
then you can safely include a wide range of Unicode symbols and
|
||
|
special characters in your UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded DocBook XML source
|
||
|
and add any of the supported Unicode block names to the value of

<para>The <parameter>man.string.subst.map</parameter> parameter

contains <link linkend="map">a map</link> that specifies a set of

|
string substitutions to perform over the entire roff source for each

man page, either just before generating final man-page output (that

is, before writing man-page files to disk) or, if the value of the

<parameter>man.charmap.enabled</parameter> parameter is non-zero,

before applying the roff character map.</para>
|

<para>You can use <parameter>man.string.subst.map</parameter> as a

“lightweight” character map to perform “essential” substitutions --

|
that is, substitutions that are <emphasis>always</emphasis> performed,
|
||

even if the value of the <parameter>man.charmap.enabled</parameter>

marks or other special characters that are generated by the DocBook
|

XSL stylesheets for a particular locale setting (as opposed to those

particular customization of the DocBook XSL stylesheets.</para>

|
||
|
<para>Do you not change value of the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.string.subst.map</parameter> parameter unless you are
|
||
|
sure what you are doing. First consider adding your
|
||
|
string-substitution mappings to either or both of the following
|
||
|
parameters:
|
||
|
<variablelist>
|
||
|
<varlistentry>
|
||
|
<term><parameter>man.string.subst.map.local.pre</parameter></term>

</varlistentry>
|

</variablelist>
|

By default, both of those parameters contain no
|
||
|
string substitutions. They are intended as a means for you to
|
||
|
specify your own local string-substitution mappings.</para>
|
||
|
|

<para>If you remove any of default mappings from the value of the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.string.subst.map</parameter> parameter, you are
|
||
|
likely to end up with broken output. And be very careful about adding
|
||
|
anything to it; it’s used for doing string substitution over the
|
||
|
entire roff source of each man page – it causes target strings to be
|
||
|
replaced in roff requests and escapes, not just in the visible
|

<para>A "source name" is one part of a (potentially) two-part

"source" field. In man pages, it is usually displayed in the left

footer of the page. It typically indicates the software system or
|
||
|
product that the item documented in the man page belongs to. The

||
|
<literal>man(7)</literal> man page describes it as "the source of

<itemizedlist>

<para>In practice, there are many pages that simply have a Version
|
||
|
number in the "source" field. So, it looks like what we have is a
|
||
|
two-part field,
|
||
|
<replaceable>Name</replaceable> <replaceable>Version</replaceable>,
|
||
|
where:
|

<variablelist>
|

<varlistentry>
|

<term>Name</term>
|

<listitem>

|

|
<varlistentry>
|

<term>Version</term>

<para>version number</para>
|

</listitem>
|

</varlistentry>
|
||
|
</variablelist>
|
||
|
Each part is optional. If the <replaceable>Name</replaceable> is a
|
||
|
product name, then the <replaceable>Version</replaceable> is probably
|
||
|
the version of the product. Or there may be no
|
||
|
<replaceable>Name</replaceable>, in which case, if there is a
|
||
|
<replaceable>Version</replaceable>, it is probably the version
|
||
|
of the item itself, not the product it is part of. Or, if the
|
||
|
<replaceable>Name</replaceable> is an organization name, then there
|
||
|
probably will be no <replaceable>Version</replaceable>.</para>

<para>Every man page generated using the DocBook stylesheets has a
|
||
|
title line, specified using the <literal>TH</literal> roff
|
||
|
macro. Within that title line, there is always, at a minimum, a title,
|
||
|
followed by a section value (representing a man "section" -- usually
|
||
|
just a number).</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>The title and section are displayed, together, in the visible
|
||
|
header of each page. Where in the header they are displayed depends on
|
||
|
OS the man page is viewed on, and on what version of nroff/groff/man
|
||
|
is used for viewing the page. But, at a minimum and across all
|
||
|
systems, the title and section are displayed on the right-hand column
|
||
|
of the header. On many systems -- those with a modern groff, including
|
||
|
Linux systems -- they are displayed twice: both in the left and right
|
||
|
columns of the header.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>So if the length of the title exceeds a certain percentage of
|
||
|
the column width in which the page is viewed, the left and right
|
||
|
titles can end up overlapping, making them unreadable, or breaking to
|
||
|
another line, which doesn't look particularly good.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>So the stylesheets provide the
|
||
|
<parameter>man.th.title.max.length</parameter> parameter as a means
|
||
|
for truncating titles that exceed the maximum length that can be
|
||
|
viewing properly in a page header.</para>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<para>The default value is reasonable but somewhat arbitrary. If you
|
||
|
have pages with long titles, you may want to experiment with changing
|
||
|
the value in order to achieve the correct aesthetic results.</para>
