[ovs-dev] [PATCH 1/3] nroff: Increase width for .IP used for ordered lists.

Fri Nov 9 05:39:53 UTC 2018


The ordered lists that a .25in width produced looked OK in PostScript
or PDF output, but in text output every list item spanned two lines,
like this:

   1.
     First list item.
   2.
     Second list item.

With this change, they appear normally:

   1. First list item.
   2. Second list item.
