The ssh-agent.1 man page seems to have an indentation oddity, at least, as
formatted with recent Arch linux manpage toolset. Here's what appears in
the formatted output just after the description of the the "-t" option:
---------- Begin formatted output -------------------------------------
-t life
Set a default value for the maximum lifetime of identities added
to the agent. The lifetime may be specified in seconds or in a
time format specified in sshd_config(5). A lifetime specified
for an identity with ssh-add(1) overrides this value. Without
this option the default maximum lifetime is forever.
If a command line is given, this is executed as a subprocess of
the agent. When the command dies, so does the agent.
The idea is that the agent is run in the user's local PC, lap
.
.
.
------------ End formatted output -------------------------------------
Seems to me like all the paragraphs after the one immediately below "-t life"
(starting with "If a command line..." and thereafter) are meant to be outdented
to the main indentation level so that they do not appear be associated with the
description of the -t option.
