Now that we're using a correct caret/circumflex/hat glyph on modern typesetters (and terminals with a Unicode repertoire), drop the thicket of partial-line motion and type size-altering escape sequences, certain to frighten and confuse any unfrozen caveman page authors.
I expect this to slightly regress the quality of output on AT&T nroff and troff (DWB and Solaris 10) when sending output to a line printer or other device capable of half-line motions, and to typesetters. The dropped escape sequences have never had effect on character-cell video terminals. --- lib/readline/doc/history.3 | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/readline/doc/history.3 b/lib/readline/doc/history.3 index 56d910cd..30b4d7be 100644 --- a/lib/readline/doc/history.3 +++ b/lib/readline/doc/history.3 @@ -150,13 +150,13 @@ .SS Event Designators If \fIstring\fP is missing, the string from the most recent search is used; it is an error if there is no previous search string. .TP -.B \d\s+2\*^\s-2\u\fIstring1\fP\d\s+2\*^\s-2\u\fIstring2\fP\d\s+2\*^\s-2\u +.B \*^\fIstring1\fP\*^\fIstring2\fP\*^ Quick substitution.
