Stop spelling "Unix" as "UNIX".
Per AT&T Bell Labs veterans Doug McIlroy and Meg McRoberts,
spelling "Unix" in full caps was a contrivance insisted upon by
AT&T lawyers, and not a practice used in the Unix manuals
themselves or the Bell Labs Technical Journal. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2015-01/msg00026.html
and
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2015-01/msg00029.html
for support.
There are instances I did _not_ change; they may require further
review.
ChangeLog.*
People don't often look for model usage here.
NEWS
One reference relevant to mdoc; see below.
doc/meintro.me
doc/meintro_fr.me
These documents also give the small caps
treatment to groff, troff, and nroff, suggesting
a separate changeset.
src/preproc/pic/pic.ypp
Contains a comment referring to "Compaq Tru64
UNIX"; not worth the candle IMO.
tmac/s.tmac:
{ms macro package} Leaving UX macro definition
alone until/unless it can be established that
this doesn't change the rendering of historical
documents in an objectionable way.
tmac/doc-syms-u:
tmac/doc-old.tmac-u:
tmac/doc-common-u:
tmac/groff_mdoc.7.man:
{mdoc macro package} Similar; mdoc defines many
strings that spit out "UNIX" (albeit not with a
font size change).
