Tue Jan 24 09:34:18 EST 2006 rsc I applied the code change to the kernel. You're still breaking the man page. All the font lines are correct as they are. uart.orig:22,30 - /n/sources/patch/uart-update-again/uart:22,32 is accessed through .BI eia n (the data file), - .BI eia n ctl + .BI eia n + .I ctl (the control file), and - .BI eia n status + .BI eia n + .I status (the read-only status file). Reads of the data file will block until at least one byte is available. The The control file is really .BI eia n ctl which formats the same as \fBeia\fIn\fBctl. What you have will format like (ignoring the fonts) "eian ctl", with an extra space. It accepts the following commands: .TP - .BI b n + .B b n Set the baud rate to .IR n . This is okay the way it was too. The "n" is a parameter, not a literal n, so it should be in I font, not B font. If you were trying to put in a space, you would use .B b\fI n (what follows .TP has to be one input line), but again here the space is incorrect. The control message is just "b1", not "b 1" (that's two different messages!). Russ
