Created attachment 28591 [details] Patch to fix decimal values in encoding tables Octal and hexadecimal values are right, but there are some off-by one errors in decimal values, e.g. several files contain lines oct dec hex description 377 254 ff RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK instead of 377 255 ff RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK Correct values are printed by this command: perl -pi -e 'if (s/^([0-7]+)\t([0-9]+)\t([0-9a-fA-F]+)//) {printf "%03o\t%d\t%s", hex($3), hex($3), $3;};' man7/*.7 A patch is attached, this is the same file I already sent to the linux-man mailing list http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-man/msg01197.html It would also be better IMHO to recode all these pages into UTF-8.
Applied for man-pages 3.27. Thanks for the patch Denis.
