The POSIX.1 man pages (sections 0p, 1p, 3p) have been moved out
|
|
|
|
|
of this package into the separate man-pages-posix package.
|
|
|
|
|
This made sense because those pages are seldom changed (only formatting
|
|
|
|
|
fixes, etc.) so that it was unnecessary to redistribute them with each
|
|
|
|
|
man-pages release.

s/`/\`/ for backquotes used in command substitution, for
|
|
|
|
|
proper rendering in UTF-8.

|
|
|
|
|
|
Various pages
|
|
|
|
|
mtk, after a note from Stuart Brady
|
|
|
|
|
Using /'x'/ to denote a character (string) renders poorly in UTF-8,
|
|
|
|
|
where the two ' characters render as closing single quotes. On the
|
|
|
|
|
other hand, using /`x'/ renders nicely on UTF-8, where proper
|
|
|
|
|
opening and closing single quotes are produced by groff, but looks
|
2008-06-09 16:00:05 +00:00
|
|
|
ugly when rendered in ASCII. Using the sequence /\\aqx\\aq/
|
|
|
|
|
produces a reasonable rendering ('\\aq' is a vertical "apostrophe
|
|
|
|
|
quote") in both UTF-8 and ASCII. So that change is made in a
|
|
|
|
|
number of pages.

Replace form /`string'/ by /"string"/, since the former renders
|
|
|
|
|
poorly in ASCII.
