	# Because tools/*.8.inc include a synopsis, the following line removes
	# a redundant Usage: header from the man page and the couple lines after
	# it.
	/.SS "Usage:"/,+3d

	# The tools/*.8.inc files also include some additional section headers
	# on a per-tool basis. These section headers will get printed out as
	# .SH lines, but then the header from the --help-all output will also
	# get turned into groff. For instance, the following will be in the
	# man page for NOTES:
	#
	# .SH NOTES
	# .PP
	# Notes:
	# .PP
	#
	# The following block looks for any of those additional headers. The
	# 'n' command puts the next line in the pattern space, the two 'N'
	# commands append the next two lines, and then the 'd' command deletes
	# them. So basically, this just deletes
	#
	# .PP
	# Notes:
	# .PP
	#
	# This leaves the --help-all output looking good and removes redundant
	# stuff from the man page. Feel free to add additional headers here.
	# Not all tools will have all headers.
