Hi, this and the follow-up patches will provide unification of charset pages, minor cleanups, and some unifying cosmetic changes. References are adjusted so that all pages include a reference to charsets(7) which contains description of these sets, stray comments are removed, some obsolete statements (like ISO 8859-1 being the de-facto ASCII replacement..) are removed, and some minor reformatting to minimize diff's between the pages are done. The actual substance, the character tables, remain unchanged. This series changes the following pages (under man7): ascii, armscii, cp1251, koi8-r, koi8-u, and all of iso_8859-*. Also adds a new page for cp1252. CC'ing Lefteris who contributed many of these pages. ----- - adjust references - add null char description - cosmetics --- man7/ascii.7 | 14 ++++++++------ 1 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/man7/ascii.7 b/man7/ascii.7 index f17c256..12375d9 100644 --- a/man7/ascii.7 +++ b/man7/ascii.7 @@ -1,6 +1,5 @@ '\" t .\" Copyright (c) 1993 Michael Haardt (michael@xxxxxxxx) -.\" Created Fri Apr 2 11:32:09 MET DST 1993 .\" .\" %%%LICENSE_START(GPLv2+_DOC_FULL) .\" This is free documentation; you can redistribute it and/or @@ -23,6 +22,7 @@ .\" <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. .\" %%%LICENSE_END .\" +.\" Created 1993-04-02 by Michael Haardt (michael@xxxxxxxx) .\" Modified 1993-07-24 by Rik Faith (faith@xxxxxxxxxx) .\" Modified 1994-05-15 by Daniel Quinlan (quinlan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) .\" Modified 1994-11-22 by Daniel Quinlan (quinlan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) @@ -34,12 +34,13 @@ .\" .TH ASCII 7 2014-02-26 "Linux" "Linux Programmer's Manual" .SH NAME -ascii \- ASCII character set encoded in octal, decimal, and hexadecimal +ascii \- ASCII character set encoded in octal, decimal, +and hexadecimal .SH DESCRIPTION ASCII is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
