5785bcc5bc If the named file has its immutable or append-only flag set, truncate(2)
and ftruncate(2) return EPERM.

Note, that if the append-only flag is set even increasing size of the file
is not permitted.

a4b155d7a2 mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.
Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

cb5fd90ad4 Use `Er' variable to define first column width in ERRORS section. It was
initially suggested by mdoc(7) style, but was broken over the years

f7a8bc4c04 Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

36f0550d96 Remove the EINVAL error from the ERRORS sections that
say is means that a pathname had the high-order bit
set, since this is no longer an error.

5e0b8a5234 Correctly use .Fn instead of .Nm to reference function names
in a bunch of man pages.

Use the correct .Bx  (BSD UNIX) or .At (AT&T UNIX) macros
instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.

428ee3c335 Document that truncate can also be used to extend the size of a file,
but doing so is not truly portable.
