[BUG] gropdf: Hardcoded (spaces) indentation in .EX/.EE is ignored

[Alejandro Colomar]

Hi Deri,

I think I already talked about this a long time ago with Branden.

In the Linux man-pages, the exmaple programs are written almost as if they were 
C programs; that is, we don't use .RS for indenting, or stuff like that.  We 
just dump the programs from the .c file, and do the minimal adaptations to make 
it work (e.g., transform - into \-).  That makes them very maintainable.

However, when the examples are transformed into PDF (and don't remember about 
HTML, but chances are high it's also buggy) the indentation is broken:

Please have a look at it.


Cheers,

Alex
