.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In sys/queue.h
.In stdio.h
.In lowdown.h
.Ft int
.Fo lowdown_nroff_rndr
.Fa "struct lowdown_buf *out"
.Fa "void *arg"
.Fa "const struct lowdown_node *n"
.Fc
.Sh DESCRIPTION
Renders a node tree
.Fa n
created by
.Xr lowdown_doc_parse 3
or
.Xr lowdown_diff 3
using the roff renderer
.Fa arg
as returned by
.Xr lowdown_nroff_new 3 .
The output is written into
.Fa out ,
which must be initialised and freed by the caller.
.Pp
The output consists of roff output using the
.Ar ms
or
.Ar man
macro packages.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Returns zero on failure to allocate memory, non-zero on success.
.Sh EXAMPLES
The following parses
.Va b
of length
.Va bsz
and outputs in
.Xr groff_ms 7
format.
.Bd -literal -offset indent
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_nroff_new(NULL)) == NULL)
	err(1, NULL);
if (!lowdown_nroff_rndr(out, rndr, n))
	err(1, NULL);

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

.Pp
This uses both the original troff
.Ar man
macros for
.At v7 ,
defined in
.Xr man 7 ,
and the
.Ar man-ext
groff extensions.
Both are implemented in mandoc.
.Pp
The troff
.Ar ms
macros are defined in
.Xr groff_ms 7 ,
with the
.Ar mspdf
groff extensions described in
.Qq Portable Document Format Publishing with GNU Troff
by Keith Marshall.
Neither are implemented in mandoc.
