Re: The rxvt.1 manpage of the rxvt-2.7.10-4 package


Hi all,

An easy way of deleting the YODL garbage is to use the VIM editor.
The following VIM script (call it patch.vim) does the job:

Q
%s/^\.YODLTAGSTART\./\.YYODLTAGSTART\./
%s/\.YODLTAGSTART\./\r\.YODLTAGSTART\./g
%s/\.YODLTAGSTART\. roffcmd //
%s/\.YYODLTAGSTART\. roffcmd //
%s/\.YODLTAGEND\.//
%s/\n\.YYODLTAGSTART\..*//
1
/\.TH
1,.-1d
wq


Then call VIM to modify the wrong rxvt.1

$ vim -s patch.vim -- rxvt.1

bye.
