I think this is OK in that it makes things consistent, and chooses the style that is already in the majority. But IMHO, using backticks looks much better. In the roff-formatted manpages single quotes underline, but backticks use bold. The former is hard to read when the content has underscores. For the HTML, the single quotes produce italics, versus a typewriter font for backticks. Which is...OK, I guess, but I think I like the backtick behavior better. I think we're wildly inconsistent about this throughout the documentation, though. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
