gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 0b1a8093dbf6e8171a5756f55485fc1254e7d174
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Sun Jan 30 06:32:08 2022 +1100

    groff_man*(7): Fix style nits.
    
    * Rename subsection "Paragraph macros" -> "Paragraphing macros".
      Paragraphing is a gerundic thing, like sectioning.
    * Rename "indent" metastyntactic variable to "indentation"; it is a noun
      (standing for a horizontal measurement), whereas "indent" could be
      interpreted as a verb.
    * Migrate terminology: say "font selection escape sequence" instead of
      "font style escape sequence".
