So if something does not look obviously correct at a glance, please let me know and I'll try to simplify it. The topic: as Fr=C3=A9d=C3=A9ric Bri=C3=A8re noticed in , various man pages have collected backslashes where they don't belong. Maybe we should forbid backslashes outside of -------- literal -------- sections. Well, I did not go that far. Still, maybe the patches can be useful.
