The contents of each type are a logical block that is indented as a block. They are not separate paragraphs that happen to be indented separately, but a set of continuous paragraphs, all at the same level, indented as a block from the list entry--the name of the type--. Therefore, it makes more sense to use block indentation, represented by .RS/.RE, rather than indenting each paragraph separately. That way it's also easier to further indent a separate paragraph inside a block, which happens for example in the case of float_t & double_t. It's simply much easier now to use .IP specifically in those cases where you want to indent just a single paragraph. Also added an ending separator comment line just after the last type.

README
This package contains Linux man pages for sections 1 through 8. Some more information is given in the 'man-pages-x.y.Announce' file. Homepage ======== For information about the Linux man-pages project, see http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/index.html. Bug reports and contributing ============================ If you have corrections and additions to suggest, see http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/contributing.html (Although there is a mirror of this repository on GitHub, please don't report issues via the GitHub issue tracker!) For further information on contributing, see the CONTRIBUTING file. Installing and uninstalling =========================== "make install" will copy these man pages to /usr/share/man/man[1-8]. To install to a path different from /usr, use "make install prefix=/install/path". "make remove" or "make uninstall" will remove any man page in this distribution from its destination. Use with caution, and remember to use "prefix" if desired, as with the "install" target. "make" or "make all" will perform "make uninstall" followed by "make install". Copyrights ========== See the 'man-pages-x.y.Announce' file.
