 .SH NAME
 .I cstyle
 \- check for some common stylistic errors in C source files
 .SH SYNOPSIS
 \fBcstyle [-chpvCP] [-o constructs] [file...]\fP
-.LP
 .SH DESCRIPTION
-.IX "OS-Net build tools" "cstyle" "" "\fBcstyle\fP"
 .LP
 .I cstyle
 inspects C source files (*.c and *.h) for common sylistic errors.  It
 attempts to check for the cstyle documented in 
 \fI/shared/ON/general_docs/cstyle.ms.pdf\fP.  Note that there is much
 in that document that
 .I cannot
 be checked for; just because your code is \fBcstyle(1ONBLD)\fP clean does not
 mean that you've followed Sun's C style.  \fICaveat emptor\fP.

 states that all statements must be indented to an appropriate tab stop,
 and any continuation lines after them must be indented \fIexactly\fP four
 spaces from the start line.  This option enables a series of checks
 designed to find contination line problems within functions only.  The
 checks have some limitations;  see CONTINUATION CHECKING, below.

 .B \-h
 Performs heuristic checks that are sometimes wrong.  Not generally used.

 .B \-p
 Performs some of the more picky checks.  Includes ANSI #else and #endif
 rules, and tries to detect spaces after casts.  Used as part of the
 putback checks.

 .TP 4
 .B \-v
 Verbose output;  includes the text of the line of error, and, for
 \fB-c\fP, the first statement in the current continuation block.

 .B \-C
 Ignore errors in header comments (i.e. block comments starting in the
 first column).  Not generally used.
-.LP
 .TP 4
 .B \-P
 Check for use of non-POSIX types.  Historically, types like "u_int" and
 "u_long" were used, but they are now deprecated in favor of the POSIX
 types uint_t, ulong_t, etc.  This detects any use of the deprecated
 types.  Used as part of the putback checks.

 .B \-o \fIconstructs\fP
 Allow a comma-seperated list of additional constructs.  Available
 constructs include:

 Allow doxygen-style block comments (\fB/**\fP and \fB/*!\fP)

 .B splint
 Allow splint-style lint comments (\fB/*@...@*/\fP)

 .SH NOTES
 .LP
 The cstyle rule for the OS/Net consolidation is that all new files must
 be \fB-pP\fP clean.  For existing files, the following invocations are
 run against both the old and new files:
-.LP
 .TP 4
 \fBcstyle file\fB
-.LP
 .TP 4
 \fBcstyle -p file\fB
-.LP
 .TP 4
 \fBcstyle -pP file\fB
 .LP
 If the old file gave no errors for one of the invocations, the new file
 must also give no errors.  This way, files can only become more clean.
-.LP
 .SH CONTINUATION CHECKING
 .LP
 The continuation checker is a resonably simple state machine that knows
 something about how C is layed out, and can match parenthesis, etc. over
 multiple lines.  It does have some limitations:
-.LP
 .TP 4
 .B 1.
 Preprocessor macros which cause unmatched parenthesis will confuse the
 checker for that line.  To fix this, you'll need to make sure that each
 branch of the #if statement has balanced parenthesis.
-.LP
 .TP 4
 .B 2.
 Some \fBcpp\fP macros do not require ;s after them.  Any such macros
 *must* be ALL_CAPS; any lower case letters will cause bad output.
 .LP
 The bad output will generally be corrected after the next \fB;\fP,
 \fB{\fP, or \fB}\fP.

 Some continuation error messages deserve some additional explanation
