gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.
commit e9eb77d848971663343ffde52166ef60f6e9f4e9
Author: G. Branden Robinson <address@hidden>
Date: Sun Nov 4 07:51:42 2018 -0500
groff(7): Don't set syntax ellipses in italics.
* man/groff.7.man: Don't set syntax ellipses in italics. Also:
+ Note that argument pairs to .hcode after the first are
optional.
+ Recast description of .ta after checking Texinfo manual.
The best way to describe it would be with big-sigma
notation, but it would break up the flow of the page to
display an equation in it. Darn.
