ls 6.7
In the man page, the options are in bold, and the explanations are not,
except
** under --author, the bold got extended past -l,
** under -c, the bold got extended through the entire explanation
** under -color, the bold got extended through the entire explanation
** under -f, the bold got extended through the explanation
** under -g, the bold got extended through the explanation
** under --indicator-style, the bold got extended through the explanation
** under -n, the bold got extended after -l
** under --time, the bold got extended after -l
** under --time-style, the bold got extended after -l
** under -n, the bold got extended after -lt
In the main explanation after the options, the bold got extended
through the main text after "--color=none".
I suppose these are probably all accidentally unterminated macros.

I was figuring out how to write a man page,
and looked at the ls one for reference, and
noticed these.
I tried to look in the savannah repo for the current source,
but this is nearly empty of content:
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/coreutils/man/ls.x?root=coreutils
so maybe something is wrong with the savannah cvs browser, I'm not sure.
Anyway, I hope this note might be of use to someone.
