Consistently refer to inter-sentence "space", not "spacing". Also
prefix this term with "additional" anywhere the context might not make
it clear (or where the context is highly general).

It is underlining, not the bold-italic style, being illustrated.
The French translation update might not be correct: I triangulated
French from English and Spanish. Avec un mille pardons.

...when they are word-initial in filled text lines.
The idea is to prevent baffling surprises if a sentence is recast in a
text editor, and a word beginning with a dot or neutral apostrophe is
reflowed onto the beginning of the next input line--suddenly it is
parsed as a control character.
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51312>.
Some of these edits permit other solecisms to persist. I'll fix them
separately.

Since we expect the user to set this register directly, it should not be
named with a leading '$' per the "me Reference Manual".
* tmac/e.tmac (initialization, {, }): Do it.
* tmac/groff_me.7.man:
* doc/meref.me.in:
* NEWS: Update documentation.
* doc/meintro.me.in:
* doc/meintro_fr.me.in:
* doc/meref.me.in: Sync with new register name.
See <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61025>. Thanks to Dave Kemper for
the discussion in <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61710>.

* tmac/{cs,de,fr,it,sv}.tmac: Update package localizations to use new
resources. As a happy side effect (and with the new appendix string),
the `+c` macro is now localized for Czech, German, and Swedish.
* doc/meintro_fr.me.in (Les Parties du Document): Update example to
reflect mixed-case default string used in chapter headings.
* tmac/tests/e_ld-works.sh: Add tests for localization.

Set line and title line lengths only in troff mode; in nroff mode, using
the terminal output device's settings is fine.
[This frees us up to do a few things: (1) make me(7) accommodating of
command-line parameterization with the -r and -d options; (2) add
registers for the line and title line lengths so they can be configured
thus; (3) enhance grotty(1) to query the terminal for its width and
determine the line and title line lengths based on that information.]

* tmac/e.tmac (initialization): Assign 0.2m to register `$x`.2m.
({, <}: Apply adjustment, multiplied by -1 for superscripts.
* doc/meref.me.in:
* tmac/groff_me.7.man: Document it.
* NEWS: Add item.
* doc/meintro.me.in:
* doc/meintro_fr.me.in:
* doc/meref.me.in: Forego extra line height for more attractive
typesetting.
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61025>. Thanks to Robert Goulding
for the suggestion.

Content:
* Move groff version annotation at end of document to page 1 footnote.
* Update French version to use version string generated at build time,
instead of a 20-year old groff version literal.
* Drop trademark ownership notice regarding "Unix". We don't care or
necessarily know who currently owns the mark (maybe the Open Group?),
and in any case the GNU project is not a commercial institution whose
use of trademarks in documentation constitutes a challenge to their
ownership, yadda yadda yadda.
* Drop justification for advice to not put trailing spaces on lines.
GNU nroff (and troff) are not "confused" by them, but the user might
be.
* Say "vi" instead of "ex". The former is much better known and retains
the CSRG connection.
Style:
* Add pseudo-shebang comment with formatting advice to English version.
* Set headers in mixed case, with command and package in bold italics.
* Stop setting "Unix", "groff", "nroff", and "troff" in small caps; use
italics instead.
* Set "groff" in an upright style when the context is slanted.
* Set man page title in italics, not bold, in cross references.
* In French translation, fix space before closing parenthesis. (I wade
into matters of French orthography with some trepidation, but relied
upon <https://unicode.org/udhr/n/notes_fra.html>.)
Markup:
* Set "Acknowledgements" header more straightforwardly. (I hesitate to
say "more idiomatically" because didn't Allman invent these idioms?)
* In French translation, get rid of excess inter-word spaces.

Alter the typography to quote this article-length document instead of
underlining or italicizing it. It has also lost its leading
hyphen/dash.
Thanks to Dave Kemper for the reminder to do this.
Also change the formatter reference to groff's Texinfo manual instead of
CSTR #54, which was further referred to under its 1976 (not 1991) title.

Generate me(7) manual sources as part of the build. We had been
shipping 'me' sources with the string '@VERSION@' in them and only
sed-replacing that to produce generated PostScript, but this replacement
was not occurring for users who processed the documents themselves.
* doc/meintro.me:
* doc/meintro_fr.me:
* doc/meref.me: Rename these to...
* doc/meintro.me.in:
* doc/meintro_fr.me.in:
* doc/meref.me.in: ...these.
* doc/doc.am (DOCFILES): Add the new *.in files. Move the *.me files
from here...
(GENERATEDDOCFILES): ...to this new variable.
(dist_otherdoc_DATA, EXTRA_DIST): Add `$(GENERATEDDOCFILES)`.
(doc/me{intro{,_fr},ref}.me): Add new target rules.
* src/utils/grog/tests/smoke-test.sh: Update test to look for the above
source tree documents under their new names.
