+# ZAML -- A partial replacement for YAML, writen with speed and code clarity
+#         in mind.  ZAML fixes one YAML bug (loading Exceptions) and provides 
+#         a replacement for YAML.dump() unimaginatively called ZAML.dump(),
+#         which is faster on all known cases and an order of magnitude faster 
+#         with complex structures.

+.SH SPECIFYING CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
 .SS On The Command\-Line
+.sp
 Every Puppet executable (with the exception of \fBpuppetdoc\fP) accepts all of
 the parameters below, but not all of the arguments make sense for every executable.
-
+.sp
 I have tried to be as thorough as possible in the descriptions of the
 arguments, so it should be obvious whether an argument is appropriate or not.
-
+.sp
 These parameters can be supplied to the executables either as command\-line
 options or in the configuration file.  For instance, the command\-line
 invocation below would set the configuration directory to \fB/private/puppet\fP:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 $ puppetd \-\-confdir=/private/puppet
+.ft P
 .fi
+.sp
 Note that boolean options are turned on and off with a slightly different
 syntax on the command line:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 $ puppetd \-\-storeconfigs
 
 $ puppetd \-\-no\-storeconfigs
+.ft P
 .fi
+.sp
 The invocations above will enable and disable, respectively, the storage of
 the client configuration.
-
-
 .SS Configuration Files
+.sp
 As mentioned above, the configuration parameters can also be stored in a
 configuration file, located in the configuration directory.  As root, the
 default configuration directory is \fB/etc/puppet\fP, and as a regular user, the
@@ -52,1729 +59,1417 @@ executables look for \fBpuppet.conf\fP in their configuration directory
 (although they previously looked for separate files).  For example,
 \fBpuppet.conf\fP is located at \fB/etc/puppet/puppet.conf\fP as root and
 \fB~user/.puppet/puppet.conf\fP as a regular user by default.
-
+.sp
 All executables will set any parameters set within the \fBmain\fP section,
 while each executable will also look for a section named for the executable
 and load those parameters.  For example, \fBpuppetd\fP will look for a
 section named \fBpuppetd\fP, and \fBpuppetmasterd\fP looks for a section
 named \fBpuppetmasterd\fP.  This allows you to use a single configuration file
 to customize the settings for all of your executables.
-
-
 .SS File Format
+.sp
 The file follows INI\-style formatting.  Here is an example of a very simple
 \fBpuppet.conf\fP file:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 [main]
     confdir = /private/puppet
     storeconfigs = true
+.ft P
 .fi
+.sp
 Note that boolean parameters must be explicitly specified as \fItrue\fP or
 \fIfalse\fP as seen above.
-
+.sp
 If you need to change file parameters (e.g., reset the mode or owner), do
 so within curly braces on the same line:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 [main]
     myfile = /tmp/whatever {owner = root, mode = 644}
+.ft P
 .fi

+If you\(aqre starting out with a fresh configuration, you may wish to let
 the executable generate a template configuration file for you by invoking
 the executable in question with the \fI\-\-genconfig\fP command.  The executable
 will print a template configuration to standard output, which can be
 redirected to a file like so:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 $ puppetd \-\-genconfig > /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
+.ft P
 .fi
+.sp
 Note that this invocation will replace the contents of any pre\-existing
 \fIpuppet.conf\fP file, so make a backup of your present config if it contains
 valuable information.
-
+.sp
 Like the \fI\-\-genconfig\fP argument, the executables also accept a \fI\-\-genmanifest\fP
 argument, which will generate a manifest that can be used to manage all of
-Puppet\'s directories and files and prints it to standard output.  This can
+Puppet\(aqs directories and files and prints it to standard output.  This can
 likewise be redirected to a file:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 $ puppetd \-\-genmanifest > /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
+.ft P
 .fi
+.sp
 Puppet can also create user and group accounts for itself (one \fIpuppet\fP group
 and one \fIpuppet\fP user) if it is invoked as \fIroot\fP with the \fI\-\-mkusers\fP argument:
-
-
+.sp
 .nf
+.ft C
 $ puppetd \-\-mkusers
+.ft P
 .fi

-.SH Signals
+.SH SIGNALS
+.sp
 The \fBpuppetd\fP and \fBpuppetmasterd\fP executables catch some signals for special
 handling.  Both daemons catch (\fBSIGHUP\fP), which forces the server to restart
 tself.  Predictably, interrupt and terminate (\fBSIGINT\fP and \fBSIGTERM\fP) will shut
 down the server, whether it be an instance of \fBpuppetd\fP or \fBpuppetmasterd\fP.
-
+.sp
 Sending the \fBSIGUSR1\fP signal to an instance of \fBpuppetd\fP will cause it to
 immediately begin a new configuration transaction with the server.  This
 signal has no effect on \fBpuppetmasterd\fP.

 Puppet executables, but the executables will ignore any inappropriate values.
