That's just a ``page break'', something you gotta live with (or fix nroff or the -mdoc macros, i suppose). Even nroff includes one blank line where it think a new `page' starts. It's probably a bug in -mdoc. You can see the page break at exact the same location (line 65) e.g. in the description of the -k option to ls(1), while (just to pick another random example) the man page of sh(1) doesn't experience this effect. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
