Various pages: Remove explicit blank lines, replacing them with .PP when appropriate Rationale: $ man 7 man-pages 2>/dev/null | sed -n /Paragraphs/,/^$/p Paragraphs should be separated by suitable markers (usually either .PP or .IP). Do not separate paragraphs using blank lines, as this results in poor rendering in some output formats (such as PostScript and PDF). Fix: $ sed -i -e '1,/^\.EX/s/^$/.PP/' -e '/^\.EE/,/^\.EX/s/^$/.PP/' man?/* And then some manual adjustments.

Various pages: Simplify mark-up for Feature Test Macro requirements Different source styles are used in different pages to achieve the same formatted output, and in some cases the source mark-up is a rather convoluted combination of .RS/.RE/.TP/.PD macros. Simplify this greatly, and unify all of the pages to use more or less the same source code style. This makes the source code rather easier to read, and may simplify future scripted global changes. The feature test macro info is currently bracketed by .nf/.fi pairs. This is not strictly necessary (i.e., it makes no difference to the rendered output), but for the moment we keep these "brackets" in case they may be replaced with something else.

You can get away with "\\" in a context where no macro expansion is taking place, but try to spell a literal backslash this way in the argument to a macro and you will likely be unhappy with results. Try viewing the attached file with "man -l". "\e" is the preferred and portable way to get a portable "escape literal" going back to CSTR #54, the original Bell Labs troff paper. groff(7) discusses the issue: \\ reduces to a single backslash; useful to delay its interpretation as escape character in copy mode. For a printable backslash, use \e, or even better \[rs], to be independent from the current escape character. As of groff 1.22.4, groff_man(7) does as well: \e Widely used in man pages to represent a backslash output glyph. It works reliably as long as the .ec request is not used, which should never happen in man pages, and it is slightly more portable than the more exact ‘\(rs’ (“reverse solidus”) escape sequence. People not concerned with portability to extremely old troffs should probably just use \(rs (or \[rs]), as it means "the backslash glyph", not "the glyph corresponding to whatever the current escape character is".

You can get away with "\\" in a context where no macro expansion is taking place, but try to spell a literal backslash this way in the argument to a macro and you will likely be unhappy with results. Try viewing the attached file with "man -l". "\e" is the preferred and portable way to get a portable "escape literal" going back to CSTR #54, the original Bell Labs troff paper. groff(7) discusses the issue: \\ reduces to a single backslash; useful to delay its interpretation as escape character in copy mode. For a printable backslash, use \e, or even better \[rs], to be independent from the current escape character. As of groff 1.22.4, groff_man(7) does as well: \e Widely used in man pages to represent a backslash output glyph. It works reliably as long as the .ec request is not used, which should never happen in man pages, and it is slightly more portable than the more exact ‘\(rs’ (“reverse solidus”) escape sequence. People not concerned with portability to extremely old troffs should probably just use \(rs (or \[rs]), as it means "the backslash glyph", not "the glyph corresponding to whatever the current escape character is".

To rectify this the following changes were made in these pages: Replace 'zero byte' with 'null byte'. Replace 'null character' with 'null byte'. Replace 'nulls' with 'null bytes'. Replace 'NUL-terminated' by 'null-terminated'. Replace 'NUL' by 'null byte'. Replace 'terminating NUL' by 'terminating null byte'. Replace 'final NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.

The use of the letter
.B a
for this purpose was problematic, since
.B a
is also specified by the ISO C standard as a synonym for
.B f
(floating-point input).
POSIX.1-2008 instead specifies the
.B m
modifier for assignment allocation (as documented in DESCRIPTION, above).

.SH BUGS
All functions are fully C89 conformant, but provide the
additional specifiers
.B q
and
.B a
as well as an additional behavior of the
.B L
and
.B l
specifiers.
The latter may be considered to be a bug, as it changes the
behavior of specifiers defined in C89.
.PP
Some combinations of the type modifiers and conversion
specifiers defined by ANSI C do not make sense

While they may have a well-defined behavior on Linux, this need not
to be so on other architectures.
Therefore it usually is better to use
modifiers that are not defined by ANSI C at all, that is, use
.B q
instead of
.B L
in combination with
\fBd\fP, \fBi\fP, \fBo\fP, \fBu\fP, \fBx\fP, and \fBX\fP

The usage of
.B q
is not the same as on 4.4BSD,
as it may be used in float conversions equivalently to
.BR L .

You can get away with "\\" in a context where no macro expansion is taking place, but try to spell a literal backslash this way in the argument to a macro and you will likely be unhappy with results. Try viewing the attached file with "man -l". "\e" is the preferred and portable way to get a portable "escape literal" going back to CSTR #54, the original Bell Labs troff paper. groff(7) discusses the issue: \\ reduces to a single backslash; useful to delay its interpretation as escape character in copy mode. For a printable backslash, use \e, or even better \[rs], to be independent from the current escape character. As of groff 1.22.4, groff_man(7) does as well: \e Widely used in man pages to represent a backslash output glyph. It works reliably as long as the .ec request is not used, which should never happen in man pages, and it is slightly more portable than the more exact ‘\(rs’ (“reverse solidus”) escape sequence. People not concerned with portability to extremely old troffs should probably just use \(rs (or \[rs]), as it means "the backslash glyph", not "the glyph corresponding to whatever the current escape character is".

You can get away with "\\" in a context where no macro expansion is taking place, but try to spell a literal backslash this way in the argument to a macro and you will likely be unhappy with results. Try viewing the attached file with "man -l". "\e" is the preferred and portable way to get a portable "escape literal" going back to CSTR #54, the original Bell Labs troff paper. groff(7) discusses the issue: \\ reduces to a single backslash; useful to delay its interpretation as escape character in copy mode. For a printable backslash, use \e, or even better \[rs], to be independent from the current escape character. As of groff 1.22.4, groff_man(7) does as well: \e Widely used in man pages to represent a backslash output glyph. It works reliably as long as the .ec request is not used, which should never happen in man pages, and it is slightly more portable than the more exact ‘\(rs’ (“reverse solidus”) escape sequence. People not concerned with portability to extremely old troffs should probably just use \(rs (or \[rs]), as it means "the backslash glyph", not "the glyph corresponding to whatever the current escape character is".
