in repository groff.
commit b0c783e51913add350112b626e9a62c06827df46
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

groff_man*(7): Reduce redundancy.
Undocument \*(AD and \*(HY in subsection "Strings", since they're
already documented in section "Options". Also, they're not part of the
page authors' interface to the macro package, but rather the page
_readers'_ interface. Add internal cross-reference.
Also this makes the page(s) shorter.
Recast description of \n(SN to be less jarring; there's no reason to
suggest that a page has only one subsection heading (usually there are
zero or several).
