DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR OR FAULTY INPUT (SOURCE):

  Changes:

  Space at end of lines removed

  - changed to \- if it means an option or minus

  Character "\(ae" changed to 'ae' as it is not part of the English
alphabet

  A full stop at the begin or end of a string protected with \&

  Word "maling" changed to 'mailing'

  Tilde (~) made bigger as it prints rather small in "troff"

  Only left adjustment of the margin added for the "SEE ALSO" section
