Problem is, hardly anybody knows this, because you configure this by … drumroll … overwriting TERMCAP entries of
less in your ~/.bashrc:export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\e[38;5;3m' # Bold export LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\e[0m' # End Bold
export LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\e[4;38;5;6m' # Underline export LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\e[0m' # End Underline
export GROFF_NO_SGR=1 # Needed since groff 1.23=

The README should hopefully provide a crude introduction. The example configuration file is documented fairly well, I believe (but maybe not). You probably still have to consult and maybe also modify the source code to fit your needs.
Let me know if you run into issues, have questions, wishes etc.

Doesn't sound bad, I like it. The synth reminded me of some song by Beast in Black.
"Anteprojeto passa a determinar que o trabalho flexível, para pais com filhos com menos de 12 anos, terá em conta trabalho prestado “habitualmente” aos fins de semana ou feriados. Alteração contraria decisão do Supremo."

HTML output is a bit broken in GNU groff, though (OpenBSD on the left, GNU on the right):

🤔
Still, I’m inclined to convert my manpages to mandoc.
The first tomato of the year
The outlook is poor, rain all the way until maybe the last day of summer camp. Definitely bringing my gummies, they are well needed, the weather report announces several days with up to 14 liters per square meter.

429: Too Many Requests on my GitHub hosted images, breaking my tutorials etc... *Not good!*July will be gone and my escape to Codeberg.org has not even started (I have to finish my PhD...)
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/4w548u/what_is_up_with_the_x11_security_extension/
This is what could have (eventually) solved the security issues that we’re currently seeing with X11. Those issues are cited as one of the reasons for switching to Wayland.
That extension never took off. The person on reddit wonders why – I think it’s simple: Containers and sandboxes weren’t a thing in 1996. It hardly mattered if X11 was “insecure”. If you could run an X11 client, you probably already had access to the machine and could just do all kinds of other nasty things.
*Today*, sandboxing is a thing. *Today*, this matters.
I’ve heard so many times that “X11 is beyond fixable, it’s hopeless.” I don’t believe that. I believe that these problems are solveable with X11 and some devs have said “yeah, we could have kept working on it”. It’s that people don’t *want* to do it:
> Why not extend the X server?
>
> Because for the first time we have a realistic chance of not having to do that.

I’m not in a position to judge the devs. Maybe the X.Org code really is so bad that you want to run away, screaming in horror. I don’t know.
But all this was a choice. I don’t buy the argument that we never would have gotten rid of things like core fonts.
All the toolkits and programs had to be ported to Wayland. A huge, still unfinished effort. If that was an acceptable thing to do, then it would have been acceptable to make an “X12” that keeps all the good things about X11, remains compatible where feasible, eliminates the problems, and requires some clients to be adjusted. (You could have still made “X11X12” like “XWayland” for actual legacy programs.)

Reducing the overall screen time is desireable, that's right. I should do the same.
But apparently, this whole thing is a heated debate in the Wayland world. 🤔
My goodness, what assholes. Reacting based on the User-Agent might just work. For now.
