What not was done: Use a macro to change to the italic font, instead of \fI [1], if possible. The macros have the italic corrections. [1] man-pages(7) Use a macro instead of an escape sequence, \f...\P., for font style changes. -- End --- What was done for $Id: smartd.conf.5.in 4103 2015-06-01 19:51:18Z chrfranke $ Enable and fix warnings from 'man' and 'groff'. <standard input>:40: warning: escape character ignored before `<' <standard input>:40: warning: escape character ignored before `>' # Change `` to ". # Split lines longer than about 80 characters into two or more lines. References: 1) man-pages(7) from package \"man-pages\" or \"www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages\" section 7 or \"man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/man-pages.7.html\": New sentences should be started on new lines. This makes it easier to see the effect of patches, which often operate at the level of individual sentences. 2) groff_diff(7) in package \"groff\": In GNU troff, as in UNIX troff, you should always follow a sentence with either a newline or two spaces. 3) \"info groff\": Search for \"sentence\" to get more hints about input conventions. # Remove space at end of lines. # The space between sentences in "roff" is two spaces. Better is to begin each sentence on a new line to avoid different writers' conventions. # Change \' (acute) to \(aq, if used as a quote. Change \' (acute) to ', if used as an apostrophe. # Change - to \(en (en-dash) for a numeric range. # Protect a full stop (.) with \&, if a) it can be transported to the first column, when the line is reformatted (split). b) it is the last part of an abbreviation that does not end a sentence. # Add a (no-break, "\ ") space between a number and an unit as these are not one entity # Change a hyphen-minus to a minus (\-), if in front of a name for an option # Remove space in the first column, if not intended. # End Patch is in the attachment. -- Bjarni I.
