s/x86/i386/ since that is the name used in 'arch' directories
|
|
in the kernel source, and previously both i386 and x86 were both
|
|
used in man pages; also nowadays 'x86' is now somewhat ambiguous,
|
|
since it is the name of the 'arch' directory for i386 and x86-64.

|
|
Format SYNOPSIS in manner consistent with other pages.
|
|
|
|
Various pages
|
|
mtk / Alain Portal
|
|
Format casts so that there is a non-breaking space after the
|
|
type, and remove unnecessary parentheses around the casted value.
|
|
Thus, for example, the following:
|
|
|
|
.IR "(size_t) (\-1)" .
|
|
|
|
becomes:
|
|
|
|
.IR "(size_t)\ \-1" .
|
|
|
|
Various pages
|
|
mtk / Alain Portal
|
|
Replace "-" by "\-" where a real dash is required.
|
|
|
|
Various pages

|

|
|
|

to:
|
|

.I *varname
