2005-11-16 Jim Blandy <jimb@redhat.com> * gdb.texinfo (Packets, Stop Reply Packets) (General Query Packets): Various formatting cleanups. - Use @samp for packet contents. - Drop summaries from packet @item lines; the same information appears immediately below in the description. - Delete paragraph breaks after packet @item commands, so that the description appears directly to the right of the packet prototype in the printed manual, if it fits. - Place spaces in packet prototypes between @vars and non-@var letters, and explain that they're just for formatting. - Use @dots{} instead of '...'. - Fix uses of @code where @var was needed. - Replace "deprecated" markers with English text spelling out the packet's status and the preferred alternatives. - Remove "(reserved)" markers on 'A' and 'I' packets; it's unclear what this ever meant. - Remove "(draft)" markers on 'i' packets; nobody has commented on this for a long time. - Remove "(draft)" markers on 'z' and 'Z' packets; these have been implemented several times, and have been in use for years.
