Bug#899341: disdvi.1: Some minor fixes in the manual



Package: texlive-binaries
Version: 2018.20180416.47457-3+b1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

  Warnings from "groff":

Input file is disdvi.1

Test nr. 2:

<disdvi.1>:16 (macro IR): only 1 argument, but more are expected
<disdvi.1>:18 (macro IR): only 1 argument, but more are expected

Output is from: test-groff -b -e -mandoc -T utf8 -rF0 -t -w w -z 
  ["test-groff" is a developmental version of "groff"]

  Other fixes:

Protect the full stop (.) when used as a part of an abbreviation.

##

  More details:

Test nr. 41:

Wrong distance between sentences or protect the indicator.

1) Separate the sentences and subordinate clauses; each begins on a new
line.  See man-pages(7) [package "manpages"] and "info groff".

Or

2) Adjust space between sentences (two spaces),

3) or protect the indicator by adding "\&" after it.

The "indicator" is an "end-of-sentence character" (.!?).
