See man-pages(7): Use semantic newlines In the source of a manual page, new sentences should be started on new lines, long sentences should be split into lines at clause breaks (com‐ mas, semicolons, colons, and so on), and long clauses should be split at phrase boundaries. This convention, sometimes known as "semantic newlines", makes it easier to see the effect of patches, which often operate at the level of individual sentences, clauses, or phrases. > +.B PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO > +is limited to type > +.B PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_NONE > +unless > +.B PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD > +option is set before the corresponding ptrace stop has occurred.
