commit 4aeeb20c12c4599d4f00811c69493469ea22c8d5
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robin...@gmail.com>

doc/groff.texi: Tighten wording.
* Stop tracking the number of strings used to configure ms document
settings, since I keep finding more.
* Delete paragraph that redundantly reminds users of FAM that it's a
string. It already gets string interpolation notation and a
"[String]" annotation at the right margin. If people can't see those,
they won't see this.
