Add a PROLOG section:

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ
2007-09-20 18:07:29 +00:00
(consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details
of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented
on Linux.

spaces before "," in formatted output.

Many many pages

I noticed useless use of macros with alternating formatting
2007-09-20 18:07:29 +00:00
(".IR" instead ".I" which suffices, ".BR" instead ".B", etc.)
because there is only one element. For example in ldconfig.8:
2007-09-20 17:56:48 +00:00
-.BR /sbin/ldconfig
+.B /sbin/ldconfig
2007-09-20 17:56:48 +00:00
This is not very important, it only makes the sources more tidy.
To find these I used:
egrep '^\.(B[RI]|R[IB]|I[RB]) ([^ ]+|\"[^\"]\+\")$'
2007-09-20 17:56:48 +00:00
And if you want to make these changes, you can use:
sed 's/^\(\.[BRI]\)[BRI]\( \([^ ]\+\|\"[^\"]\+\"\)\)$/\1\2/g'
