You originally reported an issue of "$ in nroff table causes spurious TeX-related failure". John pointed out (among other things) that (at least never releases) supports telling pandoc explicitly to parse as man page. I have trouble understanding what you are saying above: Do you argue that when explicitly telling pandoc to use man, you get the issue that you originally reported? Seems to me you have a different issue on being unable to parse as man. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
