Subject: [PATCH 4/4] man2/syscalls.2: ffix
Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2024 07:40:20 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240116134020.wvyiel53ydi4gey6@illithid> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1188 bytes --]

Refactor table format specification: use column modifiers to set heading
rows in bold instead of populating every entry in them with font
selection escape sequences.  Use a single '_' to indicate a horizontal
rule spanning the table.  Put vertical space before the table
(making it resemble a typographical "display") rather than after the
after the column heading.
