This commit slightly improves the formatting of the manuals.  My
OpenBSD machine uses mandoc(1) to format manuals.  I check the manuals
with `mandoc -T lint` and fix most of the warnings.  I also make
other changes where mandoc didn't warn me.
roff(7) says, "Each sentence should terminate at the end of an input
line," but we often forgot this rule.  I insert some newlines after
sentences that had ended mid-line.
roff(7) also says that blank lines "are only permitted within literal
contexts."  I delete blank lines.  This removes some extra blank lines
from mandoc's output.  If I do want a blank line in the output, I call
".sp 1" to make it in man(7).  If I want a blank line in the source,
but not the output, I put a plain dot "." so roff ignores it.
Hyphens used for command-line options, like \-a, should be escaped by
a backslash.  I insert a few missing backslashes.
mandoc warns if the date in .TH doesn't look like a date.  Our manuals
had a missing date or the RCS keyword "$Revision$".  Git doesn't
expand RCS keywords.  I put in today's date, 2017-01-18.
Some manuals used tab characters in filled mode.  That doesn't work.
I use .nf to turn off filled mode, or I use .IP in man(7) to make the
indentation without a tab character.
ack(1) defined a macro .SB but never used it, so I delete the
definition.  I also remove a call to the missing macro .RF.
mandoc warns about empty paragraphs.  I deleted them.  mandoc also
warned about these macro pairs in anm(1):
    .SM
    .B text
The .SM did nothing because the .B text is on a different line.  I
changed each pair to .SB for small bold text.
I make a few other small changes.

| .SH NAME
 | |
| anm  \-  print name list
 | |
| .SH SYNOPSIS
 | |
| anm [ \-gnoprus ] [ file ... ]
 | |
| .SH DESCRIPTION
 | |
| .I Anm
 | |
| prints the name list (symbol table) of each ack.out(5) format object
 | |
| .I file
 | |
| in the argument list.
 | |
| If an argument is an aal(1) or arch(1) archive,
 | |
| a listing of each object file in the archive will be produced.
 | |
| If no
 | |
| .I file
 | |
| is given, the symbols in
 | |
| `a.out'
 | |
| are listed.
 | |
| .PP
 | |
| Each symbol name is preceded by its value, a section indicator
 | |
| and a type indicator.
 | |
| A section indicator can be
 | |
| .SB U
 | |
| (undefined symbol),
 | |
| .SB A
 | |
| (absolute symbol),
 | |
| .SB C
 | |
| (common symbol), a section number (section related symbol),
 | |
| or
 | |
| .SB \-
 | |
| (other symbol).
 | |
| A type indicator can be
 | |
| .SB F
 | |
| (filename),
 | |
| .SB M
 | |
| (module name),
 | |
| .SB E
 | |
| (external (global) symbol),
 | |
| or
 | |
| .SB \-
 | |
| (local symbol).
 | |
| The output is sorted alphabetically.
 | |
| .PP
 | |
| Options are:
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B  \-g
 | |
| Print only external (global) symbols.
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B \-n
 | |
| Sort numerically rather than alphabetically.
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B  \-o
 | |
| Prepend file name to each output line rather than only once.
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B  \-p
 | |
| Don't sort; print in symbol-table order.
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B  \-r
 | |
| Sort in reverse order.
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B  \-u
 | |
| Print only undefined symbols.
 | |
| .TP
 | |
| .B  \-s
 | |
| Sort in section order.
