Would this fix anything? Is there a terminal sequence which hints that some text is a URL? Do any man viewers take advantage of such a sequence?

Also, need to figure out if that's part of standard roff, or mdoc, or gnu roff, which is not always easy to determine.

Yes there is a terminal escape sequence for this: https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda

I need to dig a little bit more to check if man viewers support it.

link/cross reference stuff is mdoc from what I can tell. sad this won't be supported as a result. makes it painful to expose a webpage version of scdoc generated pages. I assume there is 0 interest in used the mdoc version for generated pages?

~sircmpwn 1 year, 11 months ago

No, there is no plan to support mdoc.

link/corss reference stuff is not mdoc.

.MR would be useful as well for referencing another man page.
