man.indent.refsect
boolean
man.indent.refsect
Adjust indentation of refsect* and refsection?
Description
If the value of man.indent.refsect is
non-zero, the width of the left margin for
refsect1 , refsect2 and
refsect3 contents and titles (and first-level,
second-level, and third-level nested
refsection instances) is adjusted by the value of
the man.indent.width parameter. With
man.indent.width set to its default value of
3n , the main results are that:
contents of refsect1 are output with a
left margin of three characters instead the roff default of seven
or eight characters
contents of refsect2 are displayed in
console output with a left margin of six characters instead the of
the roff default of seven characters
the contents of refsect3 and nested
refsection instances are adjusted
accordingly.
If instead the value of man.indent.refsect is
zero, no margin adjustment is done for refsect*
output.
If your content is primarly comprised of
refsect1 and refsect2 content
(or the refsection equivalent) – with few or
no refsect3 or lower nested sections , you may be
able to “conserve” space in your output by setting
man.indent.refsect to a non-zero value. Doing
so will “squeeze” the left margin in such as way as to provide an
additional four characters of “room” per line in
refsect1 output. That extra room may be useful
if, for example, you have many verbatim sections with long lines in
them.
