gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 8367785a19d19f9608b4bae57b240448bdc1a039
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Sat Nov 13 07:05:12 2021 +1100

    doc/groff.texi: Fix content, style, markup nits.
    
    Content:
    * Rename node "Escape Index" to "Escape Sequence Index".
    * Revise introduction to that index: an "escape sequence...not in the
      list below" is not an escape sequence, but merely an input token.
      Further, the two items \\ and \. are not escape sequences either, but
      _do_ receive special handling, so they warrant placement here.
    
    Style:
    * Use Texinfo @xref command instead of "See @ref"; that's what it's for.
    
    Markup:
    * Set "(unary)" in roman in the index when applied to operators.
