NAME
wizd — automatically correct typographical errors in man pages
DESCRIPTION
wizd automatically checks and corrects spelling errors, usage problems with
mdoc(7) macros, and other typographical errors in man pages.
wizd is invoked by any cvs(1) commit to a man page.
wizd also performs periodic sanity checks on the distribution set lists. E-mail alerts will be triggered if the build installs files that are marked as obsolete and therefore get automatically removed.
