commit 48a546f8a6e0e6ed759a6b15ea1b1cf159cc7516
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date:   Mon Sep 2 01:48:09 2019 +1000

    grotty.1.man: Make editorial fixes.
    
    * Loosen the specificity of the advice regarding less(1)'s options for
      interpreting SGR escape sequences.  "-R" is sufficient mention, but
      there are at least three others (counting long option synonyms), and
      this is not the place to analyze their relative advantages.  Thanks to
      Ingo Schwarze for the discussion.
    * Use \[aq] character escapes in code example so its ASCII apostrophes
      are rendered as neutral glyphs in PostScript and PDF output.
