I've never editted man pages before, so hopefully I didn't do anything silly or unconventional with macros. I looked over man-pages(7) and man(7), but I just found .si 1 in mount(8), and copied it without finding any explanation of exactly what it does. So when reviewing, check my man-page syntax as well as the actual words, please. :) IDK if I was too chatty in some places. I think in places where I chopped stuff down, the meaning is still perfectly clear.
