localedef.1: ffix
Stop manipulating adjustment and hyphenation.
Forcibly re-enabling adjustment to both margins after the synopsis does
not respect user configuration of adjustment. There _is_ a portable way
to save the adjustment mode, via the .j register and a copy of it, but
doing so requires even more usage of low-level requests that are
discouraged in man page writing.
The latter is incorrect for use with groff(1) since '.hy' does not
restore the previous hyphenation mode but sets it to 1, which is not
appropriate for the English-language hyphenation patterns groff uses.
(Also, AT&T man(7) used a hyphenation mode of 14.)
Neither of these requests is respectful of user configuration of
adjustment or hyphenation enablement. Features in the forthcoming
groff 1.23 will make these easier for users to manipulate to their
preference.
(mandoc(1) does not support configurable adjustment or hyphenation, so
all of these requests are no-ops for it.)

* Promote a parenthetical to primary discussion. 64-bit systems are the
norm nowadays.
* Perform a Kemper notectomy. That is, stop saying "note that"
followed by some declarative statement. This trope is all over Unix
documentation and I even see it in ISO standards. The latter doesn't
serve to recommend it; as Dave Kemper has pointed out, everything we
put in technical documentation should be worthy of note unless placed
in a footnote, marked as "unnecessary on a first reading", or similar.
It is the exception, not the rule. If you feel the need to say "note
that", consider what adjacent material you shouldn't be saying at all.
* Say "symbolic link" instead of "symlink".
* When one sentence explains the previous, use a semicolon.
* Place the modifier "only" more carefully.
* Recast option descriptions to be in the imperative mood.
* Recast file descriptions to use the paragraph tag as the subject of
the first sentence.
