gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit bdafa155d5c4d16818761de16d0b5e424c6c3c0c
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date:   Sun Nov 4 01:13:58 2018 -0500

    Note that .tm and .tm1 write to stderr.
    
        * man/groff.7.man: Fix thinko in descriptions of .tm and .tm1
        requests; they write to standard error, not standard output.
        Thanks to Dave Kemper for catching and patching this error,
        which is at least 16 years old.
    
        Also correct missing-word typo introduced by me in
        bc256347015f3793f929fdb218ecc07f1052bedd, also caught and fixed
        by Dave, but fortunately only one year old.
    
        Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?54897>.
