groff 1.23.0 added .MR to its -man macro package. The NEWS file states
that the inclusion of the macro "was prompted by its introduction to
Plan 9 from User Space's troff in August 2020." From d32deab it seems
that the name for Plan 9 from User Space's implementation was suggested
by groff maintainer G. Brandon Robinson.
Not sure if the intention was to make these definitions compatible, but
it would be nice if they were.
Currently, Plan 9 from User Space's .MR expects its second argument to
be parenthesized. groff's .MR does not. This results in extra
parentheses appearing in manual references when viewing Plan 9 from User
Space's manual pages on a system using groff.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I Getsnarf

access the window system's snarf (cut and paste) buffer.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Getsnarf
|
|
returns a copy of the current buffer;
|
|
the returned pointer should be freed with
|
|
.I free
|
|
(see
|
|
.MR malloc 3 )
|
|
when no longer needed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Putsnarf
|

sets the buffer to the text string
|
|
.IR text .
|
|
.PP
|

Callers should assume that the snarf buffer is UTF.
|
|
If the window system does not keep the buffer in UTF,
|
|
.I getsnarf
|
|
and
|
|
.I putsnarf
|
|
will convert as necessary.
