From 510aef98a56cdbfdb147f78b05d7554bb91770a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Mon, 2 Jun 2008 12:48:48 +0200 Subject: manpages: consistent syntax In the manpages, bold is used to denote characters the user has to enter verbatim, italic denotes placeholders and non-highlighted pieces are used as a structure: "[]" specifying an optional part, "{}" a mandatory part, with "|" used for alternations. The "!" for negation is better supported before the option than after it, too. The patch makes a few files consistent with this style already used in manpages. --- extensions/libxt_physdev.man | 10 +++++----- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'extensions/libxt_physdev.man') diff --git a/extensions/libxt_physdev.man b/extensions/libxt_physdev.man index 1e635fc7..a00622a8 100644 --- a/extensions/libxt_physdev.man +++ b/extensions/libxt_physdev.man @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ to a bridge device.
