groff_diff.man: Some ortho- and typographic changes in the groff_diff(7)


From: Bjarni Ingi Gislason
Subject: groff_diff.man: Some ortho- and typographic changes in the groff_diff(7) manual
Date: Sun, 16 Dec 2012 21:56:51 +0000
User-agent: Mutt/1.5.20 (2009-06-14)

GROFF VERSION: groff-current from 3 Dec 2012 (based on version 1.21)

MACHINE: SunFire T5220

OS: SunOS 5.10

COMPILER: None

INPUT FILES: man/groff_diff.man

COMMAND LINE: None

DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:

  inludes -> includes

  color -> font family


  Some typographical changes:

  Remove excessive \f[R]

  Add \& after a dot in abbreviations

  1-9 -> 1\-9  as a substitute for the word "to"

  a-x -> a\(enx looks better than a\-x as the minus lies to high (in troff)

  Excessive space between words reduced to one


SUGGESTED FIX:
