Hello,
some time ago, Marc Espie contacted me about the bogus construction
.Li Ev
in the port-modules(5) manual. It is bogus because the .Ev macro
terminates the preceding .Li macro, resulting in
mandoc: file:line:2: WARNING: skipping empty macro: Li
Also, while using .Li for in-line literal displays is sometimes
acceptable, it is often not a particularly good choice.
So i had a look at this manual page.
Any OKs or remarks on the following patch?
* more consistently mark up module names with .Cm, because
module names are fixed strings that have to be provided
verbatim in some command context - they are not argument
placeholders
* in particular, consistently mark up module names in the
main tagged list with .It Cm rather than with bare .It,
which has the side benefit of making less(1) commands like
":t java" and ":t devel/cmake" work
* when showing specific variable assignments, more consistently
use .Ev + operator + (Cm or Ar) rather than the less expressive .Li
* more consistently show Makefile targets with .Cm;
again, target names are not argument placeholders
* more consistently mark up the fixed strings Yes and No
with .Cm rather than with are mixed bag of quoting methods
* add a number of missing Oxford commas
* do not use .Nm for the names of commands _not_ documented
in the present page, .Sy is more appropriate for those
More copy-editing could definitely be performed here,
but this patch is already growing fat.
I'm sending it here because a very large number of ports developers
have contributed to this manual page in the past and may potentially
be interested in various modules.
Yours,
Ingo
