commit 928930affeaffed535165393754c20b9dfcc3ed4

doc/groff.texi: Fix style nits in ms docs.
* Use `CartoucheExample` for input examples, consistently with the rest
of (this part of) the manual. (This convention strikes me as a little
odd, if the use of the cartouche is to suggest a sheet of paper.)
* Update poor man's keeps.
* Put citation of CSTR paper in quotation marks since it's an article,
not a book.
* Complain about Texinfo.
