Hello,

In the man page keymaps(5), there is a table with numbers in the second column with an appearance somehow odd. It is due to the macro '.TP' (which I think is commonly used to create indented paragraphs) and the presence of trailing spaces in the first rows (but not in the last two), needed to get the column aligned.

The attached patch renders the table with tabs instead.

 The effective action of a key is found out by adding up the weights of
 all the modifiers in effect. By default, no modifiers are in effect, so
 action number zero, i.e. the one in the first column in a key definition

Your patch makes invisible string before this table ("Each of these modifiers has an associated weight of power of two according to the following table").

Applied with little changes.
