From d16d0d198ade6820ed9d39ba6a7068b55b8bf6dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lasse Collin Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2020 23:10:03 +0300 Subject: xz man page: Change \- (minus) to \(en (en-dash) for a numeric range. Docs of ancient troff/nroff mention \(em (em-dash) but not \(en and \- was used for both minus and en-dash. I don't know how portable \(en is nowadays but it can be changed back if someone complains. At least GNU groff and OpenBSD's mandoc support it. Thanks to Bjarni Ingi Gislason for the patch. --- src/xz/xz.1 | 16 ++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/xz/xz.1 b/src/xz/xz.1 index a23fb898..f874b712 100644 --- a/src/xz/xz.1 +++ b/src/xz/xz.1 @@ -840,7 +840,7 @@ The default .I size is three times the LZMA2 dictionary size or 1 MiB, whichever is more. -Typically a good value is 2\-4 times +Typically a good value is 2\(en4 times the size of the LZMA2 dictionary or at least 1 MiB.
