 \fB#include <menu.h>\fR
 .br
@@ -39,25 +39,25 @@ The \fBmenu\fR library provides terminal-independent facilities for composing
 menu systems on character-cell terminals.  The library includes: item routines,
 which create and modify menu items; and menu routines, which group items into
 menus, display menus on the screen, and handle interaction with the user.
-
+.PP
 The \fBmenu\fR library uses the \fBcurses\fR libraries, and a curses
 initialization routine such as \fBinitscr\fR must be called before using any of
 these functions.  To use the \fBmenu\fR library, link with the options
-\fB-lmenu -lcurses\fR.

+\fB\-lmenu \-lcurses\fR.
+.
 .SS Current Default Values for Item Attributes
-
+.
 The \fBmenu\fR library maintains a default value for item attributes.  You can
 get or set this default by calling the appropriate \fBget_\fR or \fBset_\fR
 routine with a \fBNULL\fR item pointer.  Changing this default with a
 \fBset_\fR function affects future item creations, but does not change the
 rendering of items already created.

 In your library list, libmenu.a should be before libncurses.a; that is,
-you want to say `-lmenu -lncurses', not the other way around (which would
-give you a link error using GNU \fBld\fR(1) and many other linkers).

 .SH PORTABILITY
 These routines emulate the System V menu library.  They were not supported on
 Version 7 or BSD versions.
