All man page authoring tools suck so I wrote my own

git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/scdoc

Syntax inspired by markdown, ONLY generates man pages, implemented in 581 lines of C, 60K statically linked with musl libc, only dependency is a C99 compiler and a reasonabe subset of POSIX

@sir Can you write scdoc man page so that there's an example of Markdown source file?

@sir I usually use emacs for writing manpages, but this might be worth a burl

@sir what's wrong with BSD mandoc? it's semantic and BY FAR cleaner than GNU's groff crap

@calvin I don't want to write mdoc macros about as much as I don't want to write roff macros
