commit a5acc4824c961c386537342f1ca3049bae6c40c9
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Fri May 8 21:28:07 2026 -0500
doc/groff.texi.in: Correct and clarify.
* Fix an overbroad statement in a footnote; `\R` has no impact on an
environment.
* Refer simply to "Solaris troff", not "Solaris 10 troff", since Solaris
11 retains its DWB 2.0/System V-descended formatter--just not for
formatting man pages.
