ffix proposal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Branden!

Please check if you like this ffix patch.  Things I'm changing:

-  Use .RI instead of \f

	Uncontroversial.

-  \%

	I guess this one is uncontroversial to you.  ;)

-  \:

	To make the previous one not so horrible.

-  Reverse what is in italics and what is in roman.

	Path names should go in italics.  This wasn't being done,
	which was a bug.  Now, the variable part is in roman, to
	differentiate from the literal path name.

-  \[dq]

	We need it 'cause of .RI.


Cheers,
Alex
