Documentation

Do not change this unless you are sure you know what you are doing! Regexp used to select man source files (ignoring any compression extension).

The SysV standard man pages use two character suffixes, and this is becoming more common in the GNU world. For example, the man pages in the ncurses package include toe.1m, form.3x, etc.

Note: an optional compression regexp will be appended, so this regexp MUST NOT end with any kind of string terminator such as $ or \'.
