Historically, a comment of the following form at the top of a manual page was used to indicate too man(1) that the use of tbl(1) was required in order to process tables: '\" t However, at least as far back as 2001 (according to Branden), man-db's man(1) automatically uses tbl(1) as needed, rendering this comment unnecessary. And indeed many existing pages in man-pages that have tables don't have this comment at the top of the file. So, drop the comment from those files where it is present.

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".
