-mdoc sweep.


# 150758 30-Sep-2005 garys

A minor overhaul: added comments, split cmds in 2, changed synopsis.

Split commands into two groups: one with optional count and one with
required argument. Changed synopsis line accordingly.

Added some hopefully-helpful comments based on experiments, knowing
that not all hardware works the same.

mdoc(7) police: removed unnecessary .Ns.

Use `The .Nm utility'


# 94505 12-Apr-2002 charnier

Make `make WARNS=3' succeed, notably, use %d to printf daddr_t value.
Use `.Nm Ns .' instead of `.Nm .' Add FBSDID. Do not put spaces inside []

# 70545 31-Dec-2000 mjacob

Oops, I'm such an idiot. For reasons I don't really agree with,
all devices are by default known by their 'cooked' name, so
my change was wrong. I thought it was a hangover from old 'block
tape device' support which hasn't worked (if it ever did) since
v6/PWB.

So, the default tape name is now the same as Linux. Far out, man....


# 70534 31-Dec-2000 mjacob

The default is /dev/nrsa0 (now), not /dev/nsa0.


# 70197 19-Dec-2000 ru

Prepare for mdoc(7)NG.


# 68963 20-Nov-2000 ru

mdoc(7) police: use the new features of the Nm macro.


# 64716 16-Aug-2000 imp

Add cross reference to the ast device.
Remove reference to the now defunct wt device.


# 59649 26-Apr-2000 obrien

Default device not longer uses the "r" raw prefix.


# 58615 26-Mar-2000 charnier

Add missing dots


# 57695 02-Mar-2000 sheldonh

Remove more single-space hard sentence breaks.


# 57670 01-Mar-2000 sheldonh

Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.


# 50477 27-Aug-1999 peter

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$


# 48792 12-Jul-1999 nik

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

# 43628 05-Feb-1999 mjacob

finally document new commands


# 39260 15-Sep-1998 gibbs

Augment compression and blocksize support. Update table of known densities.


# 29988 29-Sep-1997 wosch

Sort cross refereces in section SEE ALSO.


# 28492 21-Aug-1997 joerg

Implement "eod" as an alias for "eom". HP-UX uses this name, for
example.

Also cleaned up the man page a little.


# 27752 29-Jul-1997 charnier

Use err(3) instead of local redefinition.


# 17786 22-Aug-1996 mpp

Use the .Fx macro where appropriate.


# 13409 13-Jan-1996 joerg

Forgot to update the man page for the `retension' command.


# 13348 08-Jan-1996 joerg

Add `retens', the user frontend for MTRETENS.


# 9541 16-Jul-1995 joerg

Remove the dangerous "eof" command that used to be an alias for "weof"
but usually got confused with "eom". It didn't ring the warning bell
saying: "You are probably going to mark your whole tape as deleted
right now."

A warning message pointing to "weof" and "eom" is issued instead.


# 7929 18-Apr-1995 joerg

Make mt(1) orthogonal: now that we print the densities as strings
instead of hex, make it accept density names for input, too.


# 7913 17-Apr-1995 joerg

Round #1 of my st(1) -> mt(1) merge. All the commands should be
covered now, and i've attempted to give textual representations
instead of magic numbers.

The st(4) driver still misses some pieces; i'm going to implement the
EOM functionality RSN.

Any takers for the MTCOMP command? Seems to have never been implemented.
