gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 626c83438be23e4b3908fef01357ac9f3794caac
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Thu Apr 7 11:26:55 2022 +1000

    [man pages]: Document tty-char.tmac in nroff(1).
    
    ...primarily.  Drop it entirely from groff_tmac(5) since it is so
    specialized, and discuss it only briefly in grotty(1).  The objective of
    Savannah #61958 is to document all shipping tmac files _somewhere_.
