 The function \fBfield_info\fR returns the sizes and other attributes passed in
-to the field at its creation time.  The attributes are: height, width, row of

+The attributes are: height, width, row of
 upper-left corner, column of upper-left corner, number off-screen rows, and
 number of working buffers.
 .PP
 The function \fBdynamic_field_info\fR returns the actual size of the field, and
-its maximum possible size.  If the field has no size limit, the location

+If the field has no size limit, the location
 addressed by the third argument will be set to 0.
 A field can be made dynamic
 by turning off the \fBO_STATIC\fR option with \fBfield_opts_off\fR.
