This option prepends the string given in prefix to every target
filename. This is useful for programs that have source files in
multiple subdirectories and a single Makefile that references all of
them explicitly (without using the VPATH functionality because there
can be files with the same name in each subdirectory).
- improve wording (explicitly mention the name of the optional
additional arguments within the text, using macros as well);
- create separate section, and use `.Ex' macro, for exit status
information;
- bump date.
Patch from Bug Hunting.
- remove redundant mentioning of option names within their description;
- improve (and make consistent) punctuation;
- add missing empty line;
- remove superfluous white space;
- extend `-iname' primary description (copying text from `-name');
- general wording improvements;
- improve macro usage;
- remove double spaces from examples (it's readable well without);
- reference re_format(7) in `SEE ALSO' (as it's mentioned in the
text several times);
- bump date.

+ First three take two optional arguments
+ All require no space between option and optional argument(s)
+ Make sure that -e and -i similarly describe optional [char] and [gap]
Changes adapted from patch by Ryan Younce and FreeBSD. The provided
patch was not used directly as the changes didn't mimic the System V
origins of these options. System V pr(1) does not pause for empty files.
These changes follow that precedent.
- Improve man page description of the -i option.
- sort options in `SYNOPSIS' and `DESCRIPTION' sections;
- correct / improve macro usage;
- synchronize argument name to `-s' option;
- improve punctuation / wording;
- augment `SEE ALSO' section;
- bump date.
While here:
Use Sq for single characters instead of Dq.
Use Aq instead of \*[Lt]...\*[Gt].
Mark up NULL with Dv.
Sort them, omit needless ones, and add omitted needful ones.
Omissions revealed by pilfering the code and trying to build it on
Mac OS X. We ought to have a better way to reveal these omissions...

security advice.
- bump date;
- synchronize argument name to `-d' (prefer ``string'' above
``delim'' since it's not just a single character that can be
given (even though only one, being the first one, is actually
used));
- improve wording;
- use macro for `EXIT STATUS' section.
