Bjarni Ingi Gislason 7c34520bf5 tc(8): Negative indent and missing "-" after an escape
<groff: tc.8>:51: warning: total indent cannot be negative
<groff: tc.8>:57: warning: escape character ignored before `i'

*********************

Space at end of line removed

  General considerations

a) Manuals should usually only be left justified.  Use ".ad l"
as the first regular command.

b) Each sentence should begin on a new line.  The conventions
about the amount of space between sentences are different.  This
also makes a check on the number of space characters between
words easier.

c) Separate numbers from units with a (no-break) space.  A
no-break space can be code 0xA0, "\ " (\<space>), or "\~"
(groff).

d) Use macros "TS/TE" for tables with more than two columns.
Then use

'\" t

as the first line in the source to tell "man" to use the "tbl"
preprocessor.

e) Protect last period (full stop) in abbreviations with "\&",
if it is or might be (through new formatting of source) at the
end of line, if it is also not an end of sentence.

This is a set of utilities for Linux networking.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a Config file which
contains whether or not ATM is available, etc.

3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
   look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
   PAGESIZE=a4		, ie: a4 , letter ...	(string)
   PAGESPERPAGE=2	, ie: 1 , 2 ...		(numeric)
   and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
   are in your path.

4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
   the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
   if you have special requirements and need to point at different
   kernel include files.
