Hello,

Please find attached a patch which fixes a formatting issue in the nmap.1
man page.

A line starting by a single quote introduce a groff macro. As the h' macro
does not exist, the line is not displayed.
\& is a zero width space, and prevent this issue (you can also choose to
wrap the line at another place.


Thanks in advance,
