These options control the layout that WoMan uses to format the man page.
woman-fill-column ¶ An integer specifying the right margin for formatted text. Default is 65.
woman-fill-frame ¶ A boolean value. If non-nil then most of the frame width is used,
overriding the value of woman-fill-column. Default is nil.
woman-default-indent ¶ An integer specifying the default prevailing indent for the -man
macros. Default is 5. Set this variable to 7 to emulate GNU/Linux man
formatting.
woman-bold-headings ¶ A boolean value. If non-nil then embolden section and subsection
headings. Default is t. [Heading emboldening is not standard
man behavior.]
woman-ignore ¶ A boolean value. If non-nil then unrecognized requests etc. are
ignored. Default is t. This gives the standard roff behavior.
If nil then they are left in the buffer, which may aid debugging.
woman-preserve-ascii ¶ A boolean value. If non-nil then preserve ASCII characters in the
WoMan buffer. Otherwise, non-ASCII characters (that display as
ASCII) may remain, which is irrelevant unless the buffer is to be
saved to a file. Default is nil.
woman-emulation ¶ WoMan emulation, currently either nroff or troff. Default
is nroff. troff emulation is experimental and largely
untested.
