2025-09-07man/: Address diagnostic about mismatched quotesAlejandro Colomar1-8/+8
Most of these are false positives, in the sense that a line break is escaped, and the matching quote is in the next source line. However, let's remove those escaped line breaks, which make reading the source more difficult. For this, rename some parameters to be shorter, and allow some lines to go slightly past the 80-column right margin. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
2025-06-28man/: SYNOPSIS: Don't highlight forward declarations of function parametersAlejandro Colomar1-4/+4
Previously, many people confused these for actual parameters, since it's hard to distinguish a ',' from ';'. By removing bold/italics from these, it will be easier to distinguish them. The cases have been found with a script: $ find -type f \ | xargs grep -l '^\.TH ' \ | sort \ | xargs mansect SYNOPSIS \ | man /dev/stdin \ | grep -e '^[^ ]' -e '[^ ]( [^ )].*[^)];' \ | less; Reported-by: Mark Naughton <mnaughto@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Mark Harris <mark.hsj@gmail.com> Acked-by: Mark Naughton <mnaughto@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>

2022-09-05src.mk, All pages: Move man* to man/Alejandro Colomar1-0/+315
The root of the repository is becoming a bit overpopulated and unorganized, due to the recent addition of more mandirs, and more informative and configuration files too. Let's create a specific mandir <man/> that contains the mandirs <man[1-8]*>. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@gmail.com>
