    groff_mm(7): De-document `Indcmd` string.
    
    It is defined in the macro package source but never interpolated.  It
    appears to have been replaced between groff 1.14 (December 1999) and
    "pre-1.16" (February 2000) with mmroff(1).
    
    Also, it was incorrectly described even 24 years ago; the man page
    documented arguments (to sort(1)) as default, but the string definition
    in the package did not.
