Package: tk8.4-doc
Version: 8.4.19-4
Severity: normal
File: /usr/share/man/man3/options.3tk.gz
For some reason, options(3tk) formats quite badly when viewed in the
usual way ("man 3tk options"): it screws up somewhere in the middle of
the second paragraph, and everything after that point gets jammed
together into one big paragraph.
(Thankfully, Emacs' `woman' (W/o Man, or simply WoMan) can format it
better. Not *too* surprising, since (as the name suggests) it does the
formatting all by itself, with no help from man or an external *roff
implementation, essentially ignoring stuff it can't understand. Which
likely includes whatever's screwing things up here.)
