  Modified files:
    bin/sh               sh.1 
  Log:
  Mechanically kill hard sentence breaks.
  
  Fix references to non-existing or obsoleted man pages.
  
  Use ``.Pq Ql'' to quote single characters, instead of ``.Pq Li''.
  This makes the resulting output more aesthetically pleasing in
  text-only terminals.
  
  mdoc cleanups.
  
  Add missed '.'.
  
  Document that '#' starts a comment.
  
  o Discuss the ways to escape an alias.
  o Fix the alias syntax lines.
  o Refer to the Aliases subsection.
  
  Document that `in word ...' is optional in the for command.
  
  Document the "return" built-in better: it will exit . (sources) and
  the top-level shell instance, too.
  
  When listing the special $ variables, ($!, $#, etc) list them as $!
  instead of just !, this allows one to more easily locate/understand
  the section of the manpage in question.
  
  Document the -L and -P options to the cd and pwd commands as being
  mutually exclusive.
  
  Document command -v and -V.
  
  Split the export synopsis into two lines as -p cannot be mixed with variable
  names.
  
  Document the fact that 'true' and 'false' are among sh(1) built-in commands.
  
  - Move the description of the ``-c string'' option closer to the option itself.
  - Add an ENVIRONMENT section (1)
  - Add more .Xr cross references to the SEE ALSO section.
  
  Add `local' and `return' to the list of built-ins.
  
  Document that read -t timeout returns 1 if the timeout elapses.
  
  Make it easier to find that we have test(1) built-in in sh(1).
  
  - Document trap's -l option and the behaviour of a missing action or a single
    dash.
  - Discourage the omission of the action.
  
  Document umask's -S option.
  
  Tell more of the sh(1) history.
  Acknowledge Kenneth Almquist's contribution in AUTHORS.
  
  Document missing multibyte character handling in utilities specified
  by POSIX.
