 257      These examples were constructed to demonstrate many tbl features in a
 258      compact way.  In real manual pages, keep tables as simple as possible:
 259      Like that, they usually look better, are less fragile, and more portable.
 260 
 261 COMPATIBILITY
 262      The mandoc(1) implementation of tbl doesn't support mdoc(5) and man(5)
 263      macros and eqn(5) equations inside tables.

 270 HISTORY
 271      The tbl utility, a preprocessor for troff, was originally written by M.
 272      E. Lesk at Bell Labs in 1975.  The GNU reimplementation of tbl, part of
 273      the groff package, was released in 1990 by James Clark.  A standalone tbl
 274      implementation was written by Kristaps Dzonsons in 2010.  This formed the
 275      basis of the implementation that is part of the mandoc(1) utility.
