lowdown_roff_free(void *arg);

DESCRIPTION
Frees the roff renderer created with lowdown_roff_new(3). If arg is NULL, the function does nothing.

This function used to be called lowdown_nroff_free().

EXAMPLES
The following parses b of length bsz and outputs in groff_ms(7) format.

    struct lowdown_buf *out;
    struct lowdown_doc *doc;
    struct lowdown_node *n;
    void *rndr;

    if ((doc = lowdown_doc_new(NULL)) == NULL)
    	err(1, NULL);
    if ((n = lowdown_doc_parse(doc, NULL, b, bsz, NULL)) == NULL)
    	err(1, NULL);
    if ((out = lowdown_buf_new(256)) == NULL)
    	err(1, NULL);
    if ((rndr = lowdown_roff_new(NULL)) == NULL)
    	err(1, NULL);
    if (!lowdown_roff_rndr(out, rndr, n))
    	err(1, NULL);

    fwrite(out->data, 1, out->size, stdout);

    lowdown_roff_free(rndr);
    lowdown_buf_free(out);
    lowdown_node_free(n);
    lowdown_doc_free(doc);

This uses both the original troff man macros for AT&T UNIX, defined in man(7), and the man-ext groff extensions. Both are implemented in mandoc.

The mdoc macros are defined in mdoc(7).

The troff ms macros are defined in groff_ms(7), with the mspdf groff extensions described in "Portable Document Format Publishing with GNU Troff" by Keith Marshall. Neither are implemented in mandoc.
