Removed whitespace at end-of-line; no content changes. I simply did
cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//' BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block... Reviewed by: Silence from cvs diff -b MFC after: 7 days
