Differences between scdoc and mancia

Although mancia is designed to support the scdoc format and tries to to create man pages which are rendered the same as the ones created by the scdoc utility, there are some difference between the two.

Nested lists

mancia resets the item counter for nested lists, while scdoc does not.

Example:

. Item 1
. Item 2
    . Subitem 1
    . Subitem 2
. Item 3

In scdoc, the output is:

1. Item 1
2. Item 2
   3. Subitem 1
   4. Subitem 2
5. Item 3

In mancia, the output is:

1. Item 1
2. Item 2
   1. Subitem 1
   2. Subitem 2
3. Item 3
