Hi, On systems that have mandoc installed but are missing an nroff binary, the configure script will fall back to pre-formatted manual pages despite the fact that mandoc could be used. The proposed patch adds mandoc as a valid formatter to configure.ac. As mandoc supports the -mdoc flag, it can simply be added to the list of nroff-like binaries. Wolfgang
