# 218285 04-Feb-2011 jilles

Make sys_signame upper case.

This matches the constants from <signal.h> with 'SIG' removed, which POSIX
requires kill and trap to accept and 'kill -l' to write.

'kill -l', 'trap', 'trap -l' output is now upper case.

In Turkish locales, signal names with an upper case 'I' are now accepted,
while signal names with a lower case 'i' are no longer accepted, and the
output of 'killall -l' now contains proper capital 'I' without dot instead
of a dotted capital 'I'.


# 165903 08-Jan-2007 imp

Introduce ".Lb" macro to libc manpages.

More libraries manpages updates following.


# 55035 23-Dec-1999 bde

Fixed wrong prototype and missing include for strsignal(3). strsignal()
takes an int arg and is prototyped in <string.h>. It has the opposite
interface botches to psignal(3) which takes a bogus unsigned arg but is
prototyped in the right place.

This is not the last of the interface problems for strsignal(). We
obtained it from NetBSD, but NetBSD has moved its prototype to
<unistd.h>. strsignal() should return const char *, but it returns
char * for historical reasons. NetBSD declares it as returning
__aconst char, where __aconst is normally empty but can be set to
`const' to give better error checking. glibc-2.1.1 prototypes
strsignal() in <string.h>.


# 50476 27-Aug-1999 peter

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$


# 48794 12-Jul-1999 nik

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
