5ce7073e53 o Fix a bridge example: sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 is needless,
bridge(4) is working on a level below.  Suggest
sysctl net.inet.ip.check_interface=0 instead.

c999bc6458 Try to de-confuse ad-hoc, demo ad-hoc and ibss:
o Don't ever refer to ad-hoc mode in the raw.  Instead, refer to it as
  demo ad-hoc mode or lucent legacy demo ad-hoc or some variation on this
  theme.
o Talk about point-to-point modes rather than ad-hoc modes.  Use ibss where
  appropriate.
o Fix type IBBS -> IBSS

f6e3ecc8ba Minor tweaks:
o go ahead and document ibss-master and ibss modes, since there are
	  patches in the pipeline to support them.
	o Note that they aren't implemented yet.
	o Note that different regulatory domains have different default
	  channels.
	o Note that Lucent cards prior to firmware 6.0.4 do not support
	  ibss mode, and only support the older demo ad-hoc mode.
	o Note that PRISM2 chipsets do not support WDS mode of operation
	  (the mysterious -p 2 option).

Comment out the create-ibss example.  FreeBSD doesn't yet have that
media option.  Also change it to master-ibss since that's what OpenBSD
really uses (and that is a change in their man page too)

e8b770503a Bring the wi man page into the 21st centry. This man page is based
heavily on OpenBSD's wi man page, with OpenBSDisms replaced by
FreeBSDisms.  I also added a note about where the man page came from.
I hope that I've not broken anything that ru cleaned up.  We now run
this through tbl, but that appears to be automatic.

cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//'

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...
