gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit acd5ee62714c224db1aff3280c2ce2a2314cb92f
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Sun Nov 21 10:24:30 2021 +1100

    grotty(1): Fix content, style, and markup nits.
    
    Content:
    * Document "negative image" as a synonym for "reverse video" since the
      former is the name by which one will find it in ECMA-48.
    
    Style:
    * Stop hyphenating "reverse video"--it's another ice cream cone.
    * Fix missing comma in list.
    * Recast descriptions of legacy-mode-only options -[bBuU].
    
    Markup:
    * Break input lines after commas and semicolons.
    * Add non-printing break point to 32-character hexadecimal sequence in
      URI since I don't know when I will get back to the "James K. Lowden
      aggressive pre-URI breaking tagged paragraph nested diversion
      challenge".  (You, too, can try!  Enter and win!  Prizes and fame
      await!)
