[PATCH 6/9] man/clear.1: Revise formatting (2/4).


From: G. Branden Robinson
Subject: [PATCH 6/9] man/clear.1: Revise formatting (2/4).
Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2023 15:01:01 -0500

Set "ncurses", "termcap", and "terminfo" in italics, not bold or roman.

Exception: Leave "X/Open Curses" as-is, since that's how it appears in
the standard's title page (if cited like any other 400+ page book, this
entire phrase would be in italics).
