gbranden pushed a commit to branch master

commit 4aeeb20c12c4599d4f00811c69493469ea22c8d5

    doc/groff.texi: Tighten wording.
    
    * Stop tracking the number of strings used to configure ms document
      settings, since I keep finding more.
    * Delete paragraph that redundantly reminds users of FAM that it's a
      string.  It already gets string interpolation notation and a
      "[String]" annotation at the right margin.  If people can't see those,
      they won't see this.
