From f91bc2804d46b43b6d6aea876c95d6e05664fbe7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: George Koehler Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2017 23:02:30 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Tune the installed manual pages. This commit slightly improves the formatting of the manuals. My OpenBSD machine uses mandoc(1) to format manuals. I check the manuals with `mandoc -T lint` and fix most of the warnings. I also make other changes where mandoc didn't warn me. roff(7) says, "Each sentence should terminate at the end of an input line," but we often forgot this rule. I insert some newlines after sentences that had ended mid-line. roff(7) also says that blank lines "are only permitted within literal contexts." I delete blank lines. This removes some extra blank lines from mandoc's output. If I do want a blank line in the output, I call ".sp 1" to make it in man(7). If I want a blank line in the source, but not the output, I put a plain dot "." so roff ignores it. Hyphens used for command-line options, like \-a, should be escaped by a backslash. I insert a few missing backslashes. mandoc warns if the date in .TH doesn't look like a date. Our manuals had a missing date or the RCS keyword "$Revision$". Git doesn't expand RCS keywords. I put in today's date, 2017-01-18. Some manuals used tab characters in filled mode. That doesn't work. I use .nf to turn off filled mode, or I use .IP in man(7) to make the indentation without a tab character. ack(1) defined a macro .SB but never used it, so I delete the definition. I also remove a call to the missing macro .RF. mandoc warns about empty paragraphs. I deleted them. mandoc also warned about these macro pairs in anm(1): .SM .B text The .SM did nothing because the .B text is on a different line. I changed each pair to .SB for small bold text. I make a few other small changes. --- lang/b/compiler/em_b.6 | 47 ++++++++--------------- lang/m2/comp/em_m2.6 | 15 ++++---- lang/pc/comp/em_pc.6 | 22 ++++++----- util/ack/ack.1.X | 87 ++++++++++++++++++++---------------------- util/amisc/abmodules.1 | 14 +++---- util/amisc/aelflod.1 | 5 ++- util/amisc/anm.1 | 30 ++++++--------- util/amisc/ashow.1 | 6 +-- util/amisc/asize.1 | 2 +- util/amisc/aslod.1 | 4 +- util/amisc/astrip.1 | 5 ++- util/arch/aal.1 | 12 +++--- util/led/ack.out.5 | 43 ++++++++++++--------- util/led/led.6 | 22 ++++++----- util/misc/em_decode.6 | 5 +-- util/misc/esize.1 | 5 ++- util/opt/em_opt.6 | 21 +++++----- 17 files changed, 166 insertions(+), 179 deletions(-) diff --git a/lang/b/compiler/em_b.6 b/lang/b/compiler/em_b.6 index e0d1b40fe..f7030f214 100644 --- a/lang/b/compiler/em_b.6 +++ b/lang/b/compiler/em_b.6 @@ -1,68 +1,53 @@ -.TH EM_B 6 +.TH EM_B 6 2017-01-18 .ad - - .SH NAME em_b \- ACK B compiler - - .SH SYNOPSIS .B ~em/lib/ack/em_b -.RI [ options ] - - +.RI [ options ] .SH DESCRIPTION .I em_b -is a port of the ABC B compiler to the ACK.
