I've also found scdoc to be a quite pleasant and very lightweight alternative
I've noticed that the bullet points in man pages produced by scdoc are
"off" compared to those produced by "pod2man". For example compare
https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/scdoc/scdoc.5.en.html#LISTS
to
https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/debhelper/debhelper.7.en.html#Substitutions_in_debhelper_config_files
The scdoc-produced lists are typeset with small dots, and have no spaces
between the bullet points and the text. The pod2man lists have instead
large dots and contain a space between the bullet points and the text.
Perhaps is it just a bug in the man-to-html conversion? Or is scdoc
producing wrong roff markup?
