capabilities:
- Mark up capability identifiers.
- Don't squeeze much text into the capability table given the options
will be described below in detail.
- Keep the capability table sorted.
- Use a consistent term for a PPP login program.

- Initialize "rval", which would be used uninitialized
if al or pl options were set.
- Don't pass an empty string to login(1) as a user name
(this could be triggered by entering a name and then killing it
with backspace or ^U.)
- Don't loop endlessly if the al option specifies a bogus (i.e.,
not alphanumeric) auto-login name.
- Don't pass a bogus user name to login(1) if a good name were
entered and then killed with ^U.
- Exit with status 0, not 1, on receiving an EOF character,
since it's not a error condition.

in question is PPP-only line, i.e. no PPP-sequence detection is necessary and
PPP login program referenced by `pp' should be started automatically instead of
login(1)

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.
assumption that only getty processes can be managed. Describe the
SysV-like ability to keep arbitrary long-running processes alive
using a non-device first field in /etc/ttys.

damn useful thing for using with serial consoles in clusters etc or secure
console locations. Using a custom gettytab entry for console with
an entry like 'al=root' means that there is *always* a root login ready on
the console. This should replace hacks like those which go with conserver
etc. (This is a loaded gun, watch out for those feet!)
