ldconfig.8: ffix
* Set page topic in lowercase. * Rewrite synopses to use groff man(7) `SY`/`YS` extension macros. * Rewrite synopses to use man(7) font macros instead of *roff font selection escape sequences. * In synopses, set ellipses as separate "operands" to better suggest argument separation by white space. * In synopses, prevent breaks within option brackets. * Typeset ellipses more attractively on troff devices. * Rewrite option list to use man(7) font macros instead of *roff font selection escape sequences. * Use groff man(7) `TQ` extension macro to include multiple tags for options with long synonyms instead of comma notation. * Set literals used as arguments to `-c` option in bold, not italics.
