    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The attached patch fixes various (very minor) grammatical errors and typos in
groff documentation files.  Most of its changes should be self-explanatory.  A
couple that might need a little explanation:

 - http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nonnegative says that
"nonnegative" should be spelled without a hyphen, but throughout the groff
documentation, it is spelled "non-negative," so I changed the one instance of
"nonnegative" to comply with the majority.

 - The groff.texi example for the dn and dl registers concluded with both a
.rr @s and a .rm @s.  I removed the latter, which was unnecessary because the
example code never defined @s as a macro, diversion, or string, only as a
register.

This patch updates the files:

PROBLEMS
contrib/chem/chem.1.man
doc/groff.texi
doc/meref.me
doc/pic.ms
