Hi,
no, I meant what I write. Here "man bash" shows (the hypenation character is odd
somehow):
-----snip---
DESCRIPTION
Bash is an sh-compatible command language interpreter that executes
commands read from the standard input or from a file. Bash also incor-
porates useful features from the Korn and C shells (ksh and csh).

So "incor-porates" is hyphenated, right. Maybe it's a default if groff somewhere.

I don't have access to it right now, but I got it for git-1.6 from kernel.org
about two weeks ago. I also cannot tell you where I saw that character, but it
occurred many times; otherwise I wouldn't care.
