Features: - Consider using the `shoop' package (OOP for `sh'). - Revise option handling of `grog'. - `gxditview' needs a complete shower. Revision: - Should there be a native implementation for `--apropos'? - Revise the `--all' feature to better reflect GNU man. - The debug function stack is buggy (no effect on normal operation). Documentation: - Write a README file. - Improve the documentation of the search algorithm for man pages in both the groffer script and the man page `groffer.man'. - In `groff.man', add more documentation for parts that were taken over from GNU `man'. - The documentation in the headers for some function definitions in `groffer.sh' needs to be updated.
