Package: systemd Version: 255.5-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
here are some notes and editorial fixes for the manual 'loginctl.1'. The patch is in the attachment. -.- The difference between the formatted outputs can be seen with: nroff -man <file1> > <out1> nroff -man <file2> > <out2> diff -u <out1> <out2> and for groff, using "printf '%s\n%s\n' '.kern 0' '.ss 12 0' | groff -man -Z - " instead of "nroff -man" Add the option "-t", if the file contains a table. Read the output of "diff -u" with "less -R" or similar. -.-. If "man" (man-db) is used to check the manual for warnings, the following must be set: The option "-warnings=w" The environmental variable: export MAN_KEEP_STDERR=yes (or any non-empty value) or (produce only warnings): export MANROFFOPT="-ww -z" export MAN_KEEP_STDERR=yes (or any non-empty value) -.-.

Mark a full stop (.) and the exclamation mark (!) with "\&", if it does not mean an end of a sentence. This is a preventive action, the paragraph could be reshaped, e.g., after changes. When typing, one does not always notice when the line wraps after the period. There are too many examples of input lines in manual pages, that end with an abbreviation point. This marking is robust, and independent of the position on the line. It corresponds to "\ " in TeX, and to "@:" in Texinfo. 26:\fBloginctl\fR [OPTIONS...] {COMMAND} [NAME...] 339:Do not print the legend, i\&.e\&. column headers and the footer with hints\&. 389:The maximum log level of emitted messages (messages with a higher log level, i\&.e\&. less important ones, will be suppressed)\&.

Setting -.-. Separate the sentences and subordinate clauses; each begins on a new line. See man-pages(7) ("Conventions for source file layout") and "info groff" ("Input Conventions"). The best procedure is to always start a new sentence on a new line, at least, if you are typing on a computer. Remember coding: Only one command ("sentence") on each (logical) line. E-mail: Easier to quote exactly the relevant lines. Generally: Easier to edit the sentence. Patches: Less unaffected text. Search for two adjacent words is easier, when they belong to the same line, and the same phrase. The amount of space between sentences in the output can then be controlled with the ".ss" request. N.B The number of lines affected is too large to be in the patch. 46:Show terse runtime status information about one or more sessions, followed by the most recent log data from the journal\&. Takes one or more session identifiers as parameters\&. If no session identifiers are passed, the status of the caller\*(Aqs session is shown\&. This function is intended to generate human\-readable output\&. If you are looking for computer\-parsable output, use 55:Show properties of one or more sessions or the manager itself\&.

Use 73:Activate a session\&. This brings a session into the foreground if another session is currently in the foreground on the respective seat\&. Takes a session identifier as argument\&. If no argument is specified, the session of the caller is put into foreground\&. 80:Activates/deactivates the screen lock on one or more sessions, if the session supports it\&. Takes one or more session identifiers as arguments\&. If no argument is specified, the session of the caller is locked/unlocked\&. 94:Terminates a session\&. This kills all processes of the session and deallocates all resources attached to the session\&. If the argument is specified as empty string the session invoking the command is terminated\&. 101:Send a signal to one or more processes of the session\&. Use 103:to select which process to kill\&. Use 105:to select the signal to send\&. If the argument is specified as empty string the signal is sent to the session invoking the command\&. 118:Show terse runtime status information about one or more logged in users, followed by the most recent log data from the journal\&. Takes one or more user names or numeric user IDs as parameters\&. If no parameters are passed, the status is shown for the user of the session of the caller\&. This function is intended to generate human\-readable output\&. If you are looking for computer\-parsable output, use 127:Show properties of one or more users or the manager itself\&. If no argument is specified, properties of the manager will be shown\&. If a user is specified, properties of the user are shown\&. By default, empty properties are suppressed\&.

Use 139:Enable/disable user lingering for one or more users\&. If enabled for a specific user, a user manager is spawned for the user at boot and kept around after logouts\&. This allows users who are not logged in to run long\-running services\&. Takes one or more user names or numeric UIDs as argument\&. If no argument is specified, enables/disables lingering for the user of the session of the caller\&. 151:Terminates all sessions of a user\&. This kills all processes of all sessions of the user and deallocates all runtime resources attached to the user\&. If the argument is specified as empty string the sessions of the user invoking the command are terminated\&. 158:Send a signal to all processes of a user\&. Use 160:to select the signal to send\&. If the argument is specified as empty string the signal is sent to the sessions of the user invoking the command\&. 173:Show terse runtime status information about one or more seats\&. Takes one or more seat names as parameters\&. If no seat names are passed the status of the caller\*(Aqs session\*(Aqs seat is shown\&. This function is intended to generate human\-readable output\&. If you are looking for computer\-parsable output, use 182:Show properties of one or more seats or the manager itself\&. If no argument is specified, properties of the manager will be shown\&. If a seat is specified, properties of the seat are shown\&. By default, empty properties are suppressed\&. Use 184:to show those too\&. To select specific properties to show, use 185:\fB\-\-property=\fR\&. This command is intended to be used whenever computer\-parsable output is required\&. Use 194:Persistently attach one or more devices to a seat\&. The devices should be specified via device paths in the 196:file system\&. To create a new seat, attach at least one graphics card to a previously unused seat name\&. Seat names may consist only of a\(enz, A\(enZ, 0\(en9, 201:"seat"\&. To drop assignment of a device to a specific seat, just reassign it to a different seat, or use 210:\fBattach\fR\&. After this call, only automatically generated seats will remain, and all seat hardware is assigned to them\&. 215:Terminates all sessions on a seat\&. This kills all processes of all sessions on the seat and deallocates all runtime resources attached to them\&. 230:When showing session/user/seat properties, limit display to certain properties as specified as argument\&. If not specified, all set properties are shown\&. The argument should be a property name, such as 231:"Sessions"\&. If specified more than once, all properties with the specified names are shown\&. 257:\fBkill\-session\fR, choose which processes to kill\&.

The hostname may optionally be suffixed by a port ssh is listening on, separated by 312:"/", which connects directly to a specific container on the specified host\&. This will use SSH to talk to the remote machine manager instance\&. Container names may be enumerated with 313:\fBmachinectl \-H \fR\fB\fIHOST\fR\fR\&.
