[PATCH 20/45] man/curs_inopts.3x: Tweak "NOTES" section.


From: G. Branden Robinson
Subject: [PATCH 20/45] man/curs_inopts.3x: Tweak "NOTES" section.
Date: Sat, 25 May 2024 12:41:52 -0500

* Clarify.
* Favor man(7) font style macros over *roff font selection escape
  sequences, except for man page cross references (because
  man/make_sed.sh recognizes only certain patterns when rewriting such
  cross references) and terms in the "NAME" section (because the
  generated edit_man.sh script expects font selection escape sequences
  when scraping terms thence to gather names for man page aliases).
