<para>Specifies the maximum permitted length of the

<literal>extra3</literal> part of the man-page <literal>.TH</literal>
|
|
title line header/footer. If the <literal>extra3</literal> content

permitted length.</para>

<para>The content of the <literal>extra3</literal> field is usually
|
|
displayed in the middle header of the page and is typically a "manual
|
|
name"; for example, "GTK+ User's Manual" (from the
|
|
<literal>gtk-options(7)</literal> man page).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The default value for this parameter is reasonable but somewhat
|
|
arbitrary. If you are processing pages with long "manual names" -- or
|
|
especially if you are processing pages that have both long "title"
|
|
parts (command/function, etc. names) <emphasis>and</emphasis> long
|
|
manual names -- you may want to experiment with changing the value in
|
|
order to achieve the correct aesthetic results.</para>
