    I tidied up the description a little bit.
    Also, note that program names are in italics, 
    but paths are in bold, so ".BR /dev/wsys ." 
    not ".I /dev/wsys.".  Also literals like q just
    go in .B font.  There's usually no need for quotes.
    If quotes are necessary when the font is not changing
    (i.e., in the output of man as opposed to man -P), 
    you do that with ".L".  But quotes aren't necessary
    for these.  The delete key is DEL.
    
    If you aren't certain of a convention, look in
    other man pages (rio talks about DEL, for example).
    
    Thanks again.
