gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.
commit 7ca66dd2987146f597f29ffdbc00dcd3084fecb4
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date: Sun Nov 5 08:03:46 2017 -0500
man pages: Rationalize author sections.
Part 1 of a man page author and copyright information overhaul; see
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2017-11/msg00013.html et seq.
Thanks to Werner Lemberg, Ingo Schwarze, and Ralph Corderoy for their
feedback and support.
* Stop defining page-local "au" macros to store author information.
* Instead, move it directly inline in the page, as is common practice
elsewhere.
I made several cleanups along the way, but only to material in the
AUTHORS section:
* Researched (insofar as I was able) and added program and macro package
author information. Something seems slightly wrong to me to have a
man page that documents some other work and then identify only the
authors of the man page itself. (By contrast, some section 5 and 7
man pages are sui generis.)
* Where the page documented a GNU reimplementation of a historical roff
work (program or macro package), clarify the point.
* Don't refer to the original Berkeley grn as @address@hidden; it'll be
wrong if
anyone sets the program prefix.
* Discuss "this document" or a program rather than "this file".
* Changed inline email addresses to use MT/ME macros.
* Escaped hyphens in arguments to MT and UR macros.
* Dropped unnecessary quotation marks from the argument to SH.
* Call the section AUTHORS even if there is only one author, for
consistency and future-proofing. This is what the man-pages project
folks call it, too, even though they discourage its use.
* Added discretionary hyphenless breakpoints to MT and UR macros (not
comprehensively, though).
* Set the page's own name in bold where this was not already done.
* Set references to software tools and systems in italics where they
were not (1) man page cross references; or (2) the topic of the
immediate page.
* Relocate AUTHORS section to immediately precede SEE ALSO section.
