>Description:
I've changed formatting-media to use <procedure>s and <step>s,
fixed up the <screen>s without &prompt references, and used
<lineannotate> for annotations.
I've removed <para> wrappings of lists, where appropriate and possible.
Replaced <citereference>s to man pages with &man entities.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
