gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.
commit 9fcb16cda82650372b7538f8a4fe76dd33aac15a
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date: Sun Nov 4 06:11:10 2018 -0500
me: Make minor clarifications.
* doc/meintro.me: Comment out a probably long-outdated paragraph
cautioning users against changing point size on phototypesetters
and laser printers.
* doc/meintro_fr.me: Same.
* doc/meref.me: Clarify that .$H is called at the top of a new
column on a page, not just at page tops.
Thanks to Dave Kemper for the patches!
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?54899>.
