I am not sure whether the list agrees, but I do prefer italics. I haven't finished making the user manual use italics yet, but here are some patches to make the man pages do so. I also included some formatting fixes irrelevant to that purpose to problems I found along the way. I was surprised to get so much feedback with the patches I sent earlier this week. Thanks! I hope you find as much interesting in this series. The bulk of the changes are in patch 11, which only replaces backticks with apostrophes.
