gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.
commit 7e3799362a57db2f5b9ab6c79e7f2a3f2bdcb667
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date: Sun Jun 17 08:34:53 2018 -0400
man pages: Add "\&" after abbreviation periods.
This is a style fix to prevent undesired end-of-sentence detection in
the event text reflow ends up with an abbreviation at the end of a line.
