mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.

Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

# 104330 01-Oct-2002 dd

Remove the "special processes" section. It has rotted, and the idea
ceased to be useful when the number of "special processes" went from 3
to one per device. I considered replacing it with a "kernel threads"
section, but this seemed like the wrong place for that.

Remove more single-space hard sentence breaks.


# 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.

# 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.

Change the description of errno to match the thread-aware implementation
from 3.0 on. With 3.0 being a major release, now is a good time to do
this.

Missing newline caused too much text to be fed to the macro.

# 23778 12-Mar-1997 mpp

Cleanup some of the Lite2 merge. Most of it is mdoc cleanup,
but in one case the Lite2 changes were flat out wrong and
caused the man page to disagree with a header file.

There are still some *roff macro calls that were added that
I have yet to figure out what to do with in some of the man pages.


# 23660 11-Mar-1997 peter

Merge from Lite2 onto mainline -
- add undelete() and undelete.2 (requires libc minor bump some time)
- man page updates


# 23471 07-Mar-1997 mpp

Add a missing semi-colon.

# 21573 11-Jan-1997 mpp

Rename the DIAGNOSTICS sections in several man pages
to RETURN VALUES like they should be.


# 21560 11-Jan-1997 mpp

Remove the comment about file names having to
be 7 bit clean, since it isn't true anymore.

Part of PR# 1493.


# 17615 15-Aug-1996 mpp

NCARGS is defined as 65536 in the released system, not 20480.


# 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.


# 14101 15-Feb-1996 mpp

Fixed a bunch of man page cross references that were
in the main text of various man pages.

Thanks to Warner Losh for adding an option to manck to allow
it to scan the entire man page looking for bogus xrefs, instead
of just checking the SEE ALSO section.
