gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.
commit 9f8752809bf6290e3e08433816dd315f8569a0b2
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date: Thu Nov 2 20:16:59 2017 -0400
groff(7): Clean up miscellaneous style problems.
* Use groff-style character escapes, e.g. for the copyright symbol.
* Use an en-dash in copyright year and character class ranges.
* Use \- instead of - in email addresses, URLs, and other syntax
literals (including where a mathematical minus sign is intended), so
cut and paste works.
* Use two-font macro for doclifter(1) cross reference.
* Remove stray backslash from example macro definition.
* Remove useless trailing whitespace from input lines.
* Style: "output-lines" -> "output lines" (noun phrase)
* Style: "vice-versa" -> "vice versa"
* Add Vim modeline.
