    doc/groff.texi.in: Rename "gtroff Output" section.
    
    Begins fixing Savannah #66031.

commit ed6dfcba81c19848509fccc5ad31210b0a861fb6

    doc/groff.texi.in: Retitle section.
    
    Migrate from "gtroff" to "GNU troff".  No `@anchor` necessary because
    one already exists; the node itself has already been renamed.

    doc/groff.texi.in: Semi-robotically update.
    
    ...replace all instances of "gtroff" not in an `@anchor` command with
    "@g@troff".

commit 69c2a5dae5ea88569cf33e19140e9d14331ba393

    doc/groff.texi.in: Kill off "gtroff" explanation.
    
    We no longer need it.

commit 70d6175e1d0b70f35df4c8426349b61f093931b8
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Jan 24 14:53:17 2026 -0600

    doc/groff.texi.in: Adopt dynamic @g@ prefix (1/4).
    
    Tackle Chapter 2.
    
    * Replace literal "g" prefix in applicable command names with `@g@`
      sed-substitutum (Dog Latin).
    * Reformat man page-style command synopsis on the presumption that this
      prefix is null, as it is in most deployments.
    * Break Texinfo input lines in a roff-friendly way.

commit eef7c377e385d66f7ec49919520f6e81914a8d2b
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>

    doc/groff.texi.in: Adopt dynamic @g@ prefix (2/4).
    
    * Speak of "the formatter", not (g)troff, when describing generally
      applicable *roff behavior.
    * Position "only" modifier more carefully.
    * Favor active voice over passive.
    * Lightly recast.
    * Use Texinfo `@:` command after colons, producing more *roff-like
      spacing.  A colon doesn't end a sentence (despite what some page page
      authors think), so we want to prevent TeX from supplementing it with
      inter-sentence space.  (Yes, TeX does that too--a fact unnoticed by
      partisans who proclaim its superiority to *roff on this very point.)
    * Break Texinfo input lines in a roff-friendly way.
