It seems like unicode was introduced into man pages on current. While "Include directory entries whose names begin with a dot (=E2=80=98.=E2=80= =99)" indeed looks better than "Include directory entries whose names begin with a dot (`.')" , I'm concerned about (at least) minus sign, which was changed from `-' (U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS) symbol to `=E2=88=92' (U+2212 MINUS SIGN) every= where. Now most of man pages basically provide false info, and copypasting or search are now impossible. --=20 Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://www.amdmi3.ru
