commit 79a77c4ec77af8fe665cd5b985ba68ba5615c9e2
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>

doc/groff.texi.in: Tweak wording.
Use parentheses to our advantage. Favor "empty" over "delete" as a
verb. It could be my overexposure to programming languages, but I think
of the former as removing the contents of a container, and the latter as
destroying the container itself (along with any contents).
