According to Joe R. Jah:

OK, no probs...

This patch fixes 4 documentation errors in 3.1.6, the first 3 of which
were present since at least the 3.1.0 betas.  The last fix clears up
an unintended ambiguity introduced in the expanded description of the
-m option to htmerge, which was supposed to clarify matters.  Now it
should be clearer.

Apply this patch in your main htdig-3.1.6 source directory using the
command:  patch -p0 < this-message-file
