Dear Maintainer,

  here are some notes and editorial fixes for the manual.

The patch is in the attachment.

-.-

  The man page is created by Pod::Man.  So fixes should be
applied to the source file for the man page, and maybe to the
creating process files (commands).

-,-

The difference between the formatted outputs can be seen with:

  nroff -man <file1> > <out1>
  nroff -man <file2> > <out2>
  diff -u <out1> <out2>

and for groff, using

"printf '%s\n%s\n' '.kern 0' '.ss 12 0' | groff -man -Z - "

instead of "nroff -man"

  Add the option "-t", if the file contains a table.

  Read the output of "diff -u" with "less -R" or similar.

-.-.

  If "man" (man-db) is used to check the manual for warnings,
the following must be set:

  The option "-warnings=w"

  The environmental variable:

export MAN_KEEP_STDERR=yes (or any non-empty value)

  or

  (produce only warnings):

export MANROFFOPT="-ww -z"

export MAN_KEEP_STDERR=yes (or any non-empty value)

-.-.

global configuration "core.whitespace".

Change (or include a "FIXME" paragraph about) misused SI (metric)
numeric prefixes (or names) to the binary ones, like Ki (kibi), Mi
(mebi), Gi (gibi), or Ti (tebi), if indicated.
If the metric prefixes are correct, add the definitions or an
explanation to avoid misunderstanding.

Mark a full stop (.) and the exclamation mark (!) with "\&",
if it does not mean an end of a sentence.
This is a preventive action,
the paragraph could be reshaped, e.g., after changes.

When typing, one does not always notice when the line wraps after the
period.
There are too many examples of input lines in manual pages,
that end with an abbreviation point.

This marking is robust, and independent of the position on the line.

It corresponds to "\ " in TeX, and to "@:" in Texinfo.

Add a comma (or \&) after "e.g." and "i.e.", or use English words

-.-.

Wrong distance between sentences.

  Separate the sentences and subordinate clauses; each begins on a new
line.  See man-pages(7) ("Conventions for source file layout") and
"info groff" ("Input Conventions").

  The best procedure is to always start a new sentence on a new line,
at least, if you are typing on a computer.

Remember coding: Only one command ("sentence") on each (logical) line.

E-mail: Easier to quote exactly the relevant lines.

Generally: Easier to edit the sentence.

Patches: Less unaffected text.

Search for two adjacent words is easier, when they belong to the same line,
and the same phrase.

  The amount of space between sentences in the output can then be
controlled with the ".ss" request.

N.B

  The number of lines affected is too large to be in the patch.
