* manual/stdio.texi (Predefined Printf Handlers): Remove
@hsep and @vsep usage.
---
As far as I can tell, @hsep and @vsep have not been supported in texinfo for
a long time, although it attempted to add the requested separators resulting
in ugliness:
+------+--------------+--------+--------+---------------+
|low|Multiplier|From|Upper|Multiplier|
|' '|1||' '|1|
|k|2^10 (1024)|kilo|K|10^3 (1000)|
Go to "info libc" then
IO on streams -> Customizing Printf -> Predefined Printf Handlers
to see this section.
With texinfo 4.13.91, this becomes an error:
./stdio.texi:3140: Unknown command `hsep'
./stdio.texi:3140: Unknown command `vsep'
There is also 215 lines of warnings to be fixed at a later date...
