doc: env: fix man page reference of exec(2) to exec(3p)2022-02-15T17:07:22ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2022-02-14T22:56:18Zurn:sha1:cee468f9c5aca9c09a6010a2c204fe466c229518

doc: use bold style for man page references2022-02-15T17:07:22ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2022-02-14T21:36:29Zurn:sha1:63228501e68875cc072bf479d491ec39ffa01ba3
It's more common to use bold style than not,
for references to other man pages.
Ideally each man page renderer would highlight references,
but currently some rely on styles in the page itself.
* man/help2man: Implement a --bold-refs option that
will mark up references like "name(1)" with bold
style around the "name" component.
* man/local.mk: Pass --bold-refs to our help2man unless disabled.
* configure.ac: Add a --disable-bold-man-page-references option.

doc: say that printf(1) is preferred over echo(1)2021-10-22T14:12:33ZPádraig BradyP@draigBrady.com2021-10-21T12:05:47Zurn:sha1:f60a3981c31519d03fd2be19e006349ea00b4464
* src/echo.c (usage): Say printf(1) is preferred
due to being more standard and robust.
* man/echo.x [SEE ALSO]: Reference printf(1).
* doc/coreutils.texi (echo invocation): Mention in the
summary that echo is not robust when outputting
any string, and that printf is preferred.
Also expand on the examples showing how to
output a single '-n' string.
