groff(7), groff(1): Relocate material.
Move table of preprocessor tokens from groff(7), which describes the language of the GNU troff formatter, to groff(1), which describes the groff front-end command and offers a synoptic view of the system, notably including preprocessors. Without a preprocessor to interpret them, these tokens are simply calls of (likely undefined) macros.

-Most preprocessors enclose content between a pair of characteristic
-tokens.
-.
-Such a token must occur at the beginning of an input line and use the
-dot control character.
-.
-Spaces and tabs must not follow the control character or precede the
-end of the input line.
-.
-Deviating from these rules defeats a token's recognition by the
-preprocessor.
-.
-Tokens are generally preserved in preprocessor output and interpreted as
-macro calls subsequently by
-.IR @g@troff .

-The
