I realized that the above doesn't produce exactly what I wanted. I wanted this:
The following functions return the dst pointer, which is useless.
• strcpy(3), strcat(3)
• strncpy(3)
• strncat(3)
But I got this:
The following functions return the dst pointer, which is useless.
• strcpy(3), strcat(3)
• strncpy(3)
• strncat(3)
I see various possible solutions, but which would you recommend?
I've thought of:
[

.PP
.PD 0
.IP \(bu 3
[...]
]
or
[
[...]
.IP \(bu 3
.PD 0
[...]
]
I was thinking about your future (I hope) .LS and .LE, and how they would also
fit in here.
