problem with nroff output

[rachel_11]

After upgrading from 4.0f to 5.1A I see nroff problem.

when nroff run on the following two lines:
.so /usr/share/lib/tmac/sml
\*Lls\*O \- Lists and generates statistics for files

it produces:
^[[1mls ^[[22m- Lists and generates statistics for files

Instead of:
l^Hls^Hs - Lists and generates statistics for files

any idea why ?

Thanks

Hello,

I've not seen any problems with nroff under v5.1a that would account for this problem.
The latest available patch kit, PK4, has a new nroff utility that includes a security fix - nothing else documented on it.

If this is reproducible, can you post the exact steps used to attempt and reproduce this?

Maybe look at using /usr/bin/checknr against the file(s) involved.

Thanks Dave,

There is realy no problem with nroff this version.
for some reason nroff was not replaced when upgrading.
We put nroff from another v5.1a and everything works ok
