That is, one that does not fit in the macro set that the man page seems to be using. This is a serious error; it often means part of your text is being lost or rendered incorrectly. 2. Unescaped \d looks like a troff down-motion. This probably messes up the rendering of the page in some environments, and certainly confuses automated translation to XML. --- xdpr.1x-orig 2006-12-20 00:51:42.000000000 -0500 +++ xdpr.1x 2006-12-20 00:53:06.000000000 -0500 @@ -57,7 +57,7 @@ with the \fI\-device\fP option. .TP .B \-display \fIhost:display\fP[\fI.screen\fP] -.cm .IB host : display +.IB host : display Normally, .I xdpr gets the host and display number to use from the environment @@ -73,9 +73,9 @@ Digital LA100 .TP .B ljet -\s-1HP\s+1 LaserJet series and other monochrome PCL devices +HP LaserJet series and other monochrome PCL devices such as ThinkJet, QuietJet, RuggedWriter, \s-1HP\s+12560 series, -and \s-1HP\s+12930 series printers +and HP 2930 series printers .TP .B ln03 Digital LN03 @@ -126,7 +126,7 @@ PRINTER which printer to use by default. .SH COPYRIGHT -Copyright ([\d,\s]*) X Consortium +Copyright X Consortium .br See \fIX(1)\fP for a full statement of rights and permissions. .SH AUTHORS -----------------------------
Thanks for the fix - the .cm line looks redundant though, so I've dropped it altogether and applied the rest of your patch to git master: commit 9049071794e0cdf8d72851f52481e053f6d21ca4 Author: Eric S.
