...and with better style. * Use `PP` macro, not `sp` request, to vertically space around this display. When typesetting, `sp` puts 1 vee of vertical space on the output, whereas `PP` puts the configured inter-paragraph distance. (All implementations known to me use 0.4 vees.) * Bracket unfilled example with `nf` and `fi` to ensure that they are not filled on *roff implementations that don't support the man(7) package's `EX` and `EE` extension. (An alternative approach would be to define page-local versions of these macros, copying them from groff's "an-ext.tmac" file.) * Refill example at 65 columns in the text editor to keep it from oversetting on traditional AT&T troffs (System V, DWB 3.3, Plan 9) that use a line length of 65n. --- man/curs_addch.3x | 26 +++++++++++++++----------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-)
