From 12cdf199b702bf67a3c09dafc5c99f09b73e5492 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Schwarze Date: Mon, 28 Jun 2021 19:50:15 +0000 Subject: In terminal output of man(7) documents, stop printing two extra blank lines before the NAME section and before the page footer. While these blank lines had a long tradition, they didn't really serve any purpose and merely wasted screen real estate. Besides, this makes output from man(7) more similar to output from mdoc(7). This commit keeps mandoc compatible with groff-current, where G. Branden Robinson committed the same change on June 16 (groff commit 2278d6ed). --- mandoc.1 | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'mandoc.1') diff --git a/mandoc.1 b/mandoc.1 index 1fe95806..00e7eec3 100644 --- a/mandoc.1 +++ b/mandoc.1 @@ -15,7 +15,7 @@ .\" ACTION OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORTIOUS ACTION, ARISING OUT OF .\" OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS SOFTWARE. .\" -.Dd $Mdocdate: June 27 2021 $ +.Dd $Mdocdate: June 28 2021 $ .Dt MANDOC 1 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -301,8 +301,8 @@ Format input files in .Xr mdoc 7 output style. -Specifically, this suppresses the two additional blank lines near the -top and the bottom of each page, and it implies +This prints the operating system name rather than the page title +on the right side of the footer line, and it implies .Fl O Cm indent Ns =5 .
