Patch to fix decimal values in encoding tables
Octal and hexadecimal values are right, but there are some off-by one
errors in decimal values, e.g. several files contain lines
oct dec hex description
377 254 ff RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
instead of
377 255 ff RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
Correct values are printed by this command:
perl -pi -e 'if (s/^([0-7]+)\t([0-9]+)\t([0-9a-fA-F]+)//)
{printf "%03o\t%d\t%s", hex($3), hex($3), $3;};' man7/*.7
A patch is attached, this is the same file I already sent to the linux-man
mailing list
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-man/msg01197.html
It would also be better IMHO to recode all these pages into UTF-8.
