wiz 472351e13d Use
.In header.h
instead of
.Fd #include \*[Lt]header.h\*[Gt]
Much easier to read and write, and supported by groff for ages.
Okayed by ross.

jdolecek 07506ce5eb update to match current common implementation on NetBSD - [f]truncate()
normally lengtens the file if it's shorter than specified length
also change wording slighly, to match wording in SUS

XXX someone should check how much of SUS truncate(2) specification is true
XXX on NetBSD and update this manpage accordingly

kleink 15be242b3a Add a LIBRARY section to system call manual pages. While it's clear that the
libraries contain stubs only (with minor exceptions a la pipe(2)), the purpose
of this section is to provide linkage information.

garbled 38c96853cf Last of the .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages.  Wheee!

lukem ce83c69e00 first pass at fixing up capitalization of function names and
arguments; ensure that each is correct with respect to the
implementation, rather than being correct as per english.

jtc 38065bce20 Remove description of EINVAL, "The pathname contains a character with the
high-order bit set", as this error is obsolete.

Eventually we may want to add code to some of the "optional" filesystems
(msdosfs, etc.) that checks for illegal characters.  At that time it would
be appropriate to reintroduce this error with appropriate text.  Perhaps
"The pathname contains a character that is not valid for filesystem type".

jtc a3376999f0 Use symbolic names {NAME_MAX} & {PATH_MAX} instead of 255 and 1023 in
description of ENAMETOOLONG error.
1994-04-19 00:10:45 +00:00
jtc 250b6aa06e Use "Er" for argument to -width in the lists in the ERROR sections --- so
the formatting is consistant.

jtc 6e9ac1805f Clean up manpages:
Use .Fn rather than .Nm macro in HISTORY and STANDARDS sections.
  Use .At and .St macros instead of spelling out "Version 6 UNIX",
	"IEEE 1003.1-1988 (POSIX)", etc.
