commit 2efa1655774cbe0aa04a8c2a5ad0f17a90a3b695
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

    [docs]: Fix style nits.
    
    * doc/groff.texi (Paragraphs in ms): Use participle form of "orphan" for
      adjective.
      (Headings in ms): Remove spurious comma.
    
    * doc/ms.ms (Headings): Tighten wording.
    
    * tmac/groff_ms.7.man (Usage/Headings): Fix word-order glitch.  Say
      "scaling indicator" instead of "scaling factor".  Tighten wording.
