How about: ==== Change [[ These macros define and operate... ]] to: [[ The header file provides a set of macros that define and operate... ]] ==== Split up the remainder of the DESCRIPTION using subsections: [[ .SS Singly-linked lists (SLIST) Singly-linked lists are the simplest and support only the above functionality. ...
