VERSION 1.22.1
==============

(Version 1.22 has not been released.)

Groff
-----

o A new option `-j' has been added to call the `chem' preprocessor.

Tbl
---

o Improved line numbering support.

Macro Packages
--------------

o Support for the `refer' preprocessor has been added to the -mm macro
  package.

o In -me, the `TH' macro was changed for compatibility with line number
  support in tables.

  `bl' now works inside of blocks.

  The behaviour of centered blocks has been improved.

  Line numbering support has been improved.

o The -mom macro package has reached version 2.0, focusing on PDF output
  with gropdf (using the new `pdfmom' wrapper script).  See the file
  `version-2.html' of the -mom documentation for a list of the many changes.

o Some generic Unicode fallback characters (mainly Roman numerals) have been
  added.

Gropdf
------

o A new driver for generating PDF output directly, contributed by Deri James
  <deri@chuzzlewit.myzen.co.uk>.  Note that this driver is written in Perl,
  thus you need a working Perl installation to run this output device.

Pdfmom
------

o A new wrapper around groff that facilitates the production of PDF
  documents from files formatted with the -mom macros.
