a5d5588506 - Format corrections for troff output
- Comment out the description of the unimplemented replace command
- Explain in even stronger language that resetconfig is not for
  everyday use

  Motivated by:  Marko Schütz <marko@ki.informatik.uni-frankfurt.de>

- Correct the description of the start command (no longer used to
  start vinum, just specific objects)

  Motivated by: dg

- Remove .TH N commands, which conflict badly with the doc macros,
  causing strange headings in nroff output and endless loops in troff.
  The current version produces warning messages with some screen
  sizes, and will be fixed when I have time.

  Bug-report: docs/9328 (nroff)
  Reported-by: joerg (troff)

- Add gotcha info for the setupstate keyword and the use of label and
  resetconfig.

- Add bug entry for the warning messages introduced by fixing
  docs/9328.
