Sadly I don’t know how to futz about with traps, I just haven’t gotten
to that point yet in my use of groff. First I would point you to the manpage, but, we all know that manpages are a mess, so it might not be there.
I will however point you, perhaps not /super/ helpful, but alas, I know not of any better solution.
If you go to
/usr/share/groff/current/tmac/s.tmac
and search for «module fn», that should be the code for the footnotes.
Aside, the -ms name comes from this, -m means macro, and whatever letter comes after it is the macro set, hence why -man will be called an.tmac in groff source code, or in this case, s.tmac. I am not sure where documentation is on traps in groff, but I assume it’s buried withing some manpage or info document somewhere.
Software is crap, eh? :D Of course, you could ask in the groff mailing list[1], they are usually pretty helpful in these matters.
Which course of action you chose is of course up to you, I will investigate for myself as well to educate myself more on traps. [1]: mailto:groff@gnu.org |
