Hi Jason,
Here are a couple of patches for improving the formatting of the manual
page.
The first one allows groff(1) to know where sentences end. This can be
done either by using 2 spaces to separate sentences, or by ending the
line after period. The latter is preferred.
The second patch makes it so that the '-' can be pasted firectly from
the manual page into the command line. When writing '-' in the source
of a manual page, the formatter prints a hyphen. For a hyphen-minus
--the ASCII character--, one needs to write '\-'.
Cheers,
Alex
