This patch does only the following:
* Order SEE ALSO entries first by section name, then alphabetically
within section
* Adds one or two missing commas in SEE ALSO lists
* Removes one or two periods that were (inconsistently) used
at the end of SEE ALSO lists.

- use exit in .profile to avoid non-logged session after typing "exit"
- document that script can read more from stdin than the command inside:
echo -e 'script -c "read a b ; echo a=\$a b=\$b >defs.sh"\n1 2\necho Done' | sh
Script started, file is typescript
1 2
echo Done
Script done, file is typescript

Subject: [PATCH] script.1: Document behavior in non-interactive shells

Specifying 'script --quiet ...' still produces the 'Script started'
message in the typescript file. The --quiet option implies that the
script program should not log any of its output to the typescript file.

Add two spaces as the required third argument of the date line to make
the specified date get used instead of today's date. Incorporate the
section number into the page title, then use an empty section number,
so that specifying an explicit section/volume name will work.

Use dates without the day, use the full month name, put "util-linux" in
the lower left corner, and "User Commands" or "System Administration"
at the top center.
Also improve here and there the one-line program description.
