Better rendering of the prototype for signal(3).

mdoc(7) police: Use the new .In macro for #include statements.


# 80276 24-Jul-2001 sheldonh

The previous delta duplicated a significant amount of information
already found in the sigaction(2) manual.

As discussed with the committer of that delta, cross-reference the list
in sigaction(2) instead of duplicating the list of functions that are
safe for use within signal handlers.


# 80254 24-Jul-2001 kris

Add the list of signal-handler safe functions here too, so people can
find it more easily

mdoc(7) police: removed HISTORY info from the .Os call.

SIGABRT is *not* the same as calling abort(), so don't claim that it is.
(abort() flushes all open stdio streams for one thing.)

Introduce ".Lb" macro to libc manpages.

More libraries manpages updates following.


# 57686 02-Mar-2000 sheldonh

Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.


# 51023 06-Sep-1999 ru

- add reference to siginterrupt(3)
- mdoc(7) fixes


# 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.

# 33357 14-Feb-1998 jb

signal() returns SIG_ERR, not just -1. The sys/signal.h header file
provides the cast from -1 to the signal() return type, so no further
casting by programmers should be required.

Pointed out by: bde (of course).


# 33107 04-Feb-1998 jlemon

Document the fpgetprec/fpsetprec functions in their man page.
Add cross-references to the elusive fpsetmask() function to various other
man pages.

Revert the previous prototype un-typo. Add a brief comment warning that
"fixing" it is not a good idea.


# 29907 28-Sep-1997 msmith

Fix typo in signal() prototype


# 22942 20-Feb-1997 danny

Typogrammatical error 'with' -> 'when'.

# 16936 03-Jul-1996 mpp

Document the "sig" function parameter.

Submitted by: James Raynard


# 14855 27-Mar-1996 mpp

Added missing section numbers to a bunch of .Xr macros, or
converted them into .Fn macros where appropriate. Also fixed
up some minor formatting problems.


# 13561 22-Jan-1996 mpp

Changed the description of SIGSYS to better reflect what
it means when that signal is received. Closes PR# 686.


# 9536 16-Jul-1995 bde

Fix the synopsis of signal() again. Now it is uglier but correct.
(Declarations of signal that don't use typedefs can't be formatted
in the standard man page form.)


# 6693 25-Feb-1995 phk

Explain the full story, and make it understandable too.


# 6681 24-Feb-1995 phk

fix the synopsis to show

| void
| *signal(int sig, void (*func)(int))

instead of

| void
| *signal(sig, func())
|
| void
| (*func)()
