* mdoc(7) police:Ruslan Ermilov2001-08-071-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text. Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the entire enclosed block.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "locailzed"; it should read "localized". * The "test" operator can be a bit dangerous (e.g., if a newbie writes a script named "test" and has it call "apropos", which calls "test, ...). * In its use as "whatis", apropos formats the first line of the output differently than the following lines. Specifically, it leaves out all but one of the spaces that precede the dash in the first line. Submitted by: Rich Morin <rdm@cfcl.com> PR: 25126 Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=75018
