[groff] 21/32: doc/meref.me.in: Fix documentation errors.


From: G. Branden Robinson
Subject: [groff] 21/32: doc/meref.me.in: Fix documentation errors.
Date: Thu, 6 Oct 2022 09:11:24 -0400 (EDT)

gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 1728f9229ae408e7e1600fb8a76bb7387420aed2
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Wed Oct 5 16:47:09 2022 -0500

    doc/meref.me.in: Fix documentation errors.
    
    (Preprocessor Support) <PS>: Swap argument order (width comes first),
    note empty defaults, and (vaguely) describe their purpose.  DWB and GNU
    pic semantics evidently diverge here.
    
    (Summary) <\_>: Describe as "underrule", not "underscore".  These are
    distinct: the latter is a glyph; the former is drawn by typesetters and
    rendered with SGR attributes on terminals.
