A PPP login program is started _automatically_ (i.e., without
human intervention) even with the "pl" capability unset, as soon
as a PPP frame is detected. But with "pl" set, a PPP login program
is started independently of the result of PPP detection (which is
rendered unnecessary then,) i.e. _unconditionally_.
information could only be gleaned from the the tty descriptor itself
was neglected, so never did the tty's default settings get copied from
the kernel. Specifically, this caused all manner of ctrl-keys to not
work. Fix this by calling dogettytab() in all the proper places, and
retrieving the terminfo temporarily in dogettytab().
- Use .Va, not .Em, to mark up variable-like identifiers
(capability and database entry names.)
- Stop abusing .Tn (trademark) to emphasize general phrases.
- Spot unmarked capability references.
- Add a missing line break.

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.
