Subject: .Fn _* issue
Date: Sat, 25 Sep 2010 07:35:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100925063547.GB14869@bramka.kerhand.co.uk> (raw)
hi. the source, from cacheflush(3):
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In machine/sysarch.h
.Ft int
.Fn cacheflush "void *addr" "int nbytes" "int cache"
.Ft int
.Fn _flush_cache "char *addr" "int nbytes" "int cache"
formats as:
SYNOPSIS
#include <machine/sysarch.h>
int
cacheflush(void *addr, int nbytes, int cache);
int
_flush_cache(char *addr, int nbytes, int cache);
so the issue is the initial `_' in _flush_cache. it's formatted in a
different font to the rest of the function name (you can see this best
on a terminal).
this is a long standing bug that we always had in old groff, which
really annoyed me. new groff fixed it.
