The best way I know to _encourage_ compliance is a template file that illustrates and explains the common markup/macros in situ. Copy it to glurp.1 , open glurp.1 in whatever editor you like, comment out the items you don't think you need (because .\" , \# and .ig are explained inside), change the ones you do and voila! the man page she is done! Maybe a man_page_template(5) ? -- Mike Bianchi _______________________________________________ Groff mailing list Groff@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/groff
